If precision, speed, and adaptability are second nature to you — and the idea of working on the cutting edge of robotic and specialized surgery excites you — then you might be the Surgical Technologist we’re looking for.

In this role, you’ll be a vital part of the surgical team, ensuring every tool, instrument, and detail is in place for complex, high-tech procedures like robotic surgeries and joint replacements. You’ll help maintain the highest standards of surgical asepsis, anticipate surgeon needs in real time, and bring a steady hand and clear mind to an ever-changing surgical environment.

+ Prepare and organize specialized surgical instruments and equipment — especially for robotic and advanced surgical procedures.

+ Scrub in for a wide variety of complex procedures and actively anticipate the surgical team's needs.

+ Maintain strict adherence to surgical asepsis and safety protocols.

+ Stay alert and adaptable as you respond to rapidly changing patient conditions or procedure needs.

+ Support a high-performing team with calm, clear communication under pressure.

What You’ll Need:

Must-Haves:

+ **High School Diploma or GED** .

+ **Current BLS certification** — must remain active for continued employment.

+ Certification or **demonstrated expertise** in specialized procedures (robotics, joint replacement, etc.), if required.

+ Physical stamina: Ability to stand for extended periods, lift up to **50 lbs** , push/pull **125 lbs** , and occasionally wear a **10 lb. X-ray apron** .

+ Strong communication and documentation skills.

+ Resilience under pressure and flexibility with shifting schedules or surgical demands.

+ Self-motivation and sharp time management skills.

This is more than just a role — it's a chance to be part of **innovative, life-changing procedures** and to grow alongside a team that thrives on precision, collaboration, and excellence.
