This role is ideal for someone with a background in business, finance, accounting, or operations who’s ready to make a hands-on career pivot. As a Manufacturing Operations Technician, you’ll use your analytical skills in a new way, working directly with products, equipment, and processes that power our technology.

You’ll collaborate with engineering and operations teams to improve workflows, streamline production, and support the assembly and delivery of devices.

Production & Technical Support

  • Diagnose and repair medical devices following established procedures
  • Assist with mechanical assembly, wiring, and component integration
  • Maintain accurate documentation of repairs, parts usage, and service activity

Quality & Continuous Improvement

  • Conduct inspections and collaborate on quality assurance enhancements
  • Help track feedback from the field and translate it into actionable process updates

Collaboration & Communication

  • Support cross-functional initiatives with operations, engineering, and client support teams
  • Communicate results and recommendations clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders

 

What We’re Looking For

  • Experience in business, finance, accounting, operations, or a similar analytical field
  • Eagerness to transition into a hands-on, technical environment and learn new skills
  • Strong problem-solving mindset with an interest in process improvement and systems thinking
  • Comfortable working directly with products, tools, and equipment
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills
  • Detail-oriented, proactive, and adaptable in a fast-changing environment
  • Team-oriented and collaborative, with the ability to lift up to 150 lbs
  • Passport required for occasional international travel

Skills You’ll Build Here

  • Diagnosing and troubleshooting electromechanical systems
  • Mechanical assembly, wiring, and soldering
  • Process design, documentation, and continuous improvement
  • Working cross-functionally with engineering, operations, and leadership teams

Why Join Us

  • Leadership: Help practices and medical centers adopt groundbreaking technology that empowers patients and allows practitioners to offer versatile treatment options.
  • Exposure: Work closely with key decision-makers in the healthcare space, expanding your network and influence in a rapidly growing industry.
  • Growth: Join an energetic and innovative culture where your ideas are valued. You’ll have the opportunity to contribute to company growth, take on new projects, and further your career.
