Operating Room Systems Installation Technician

You start your day on the road, heading to a hospital site within a designated multi-state territory in a company vehicle. Sometimes it’s a quick day trip; other weeks, you’re on a Monday–Friday run with an occasional weekend on the schedule (no more than two weekends per month). Hours flex with Customer needs. Overtime is common in this role, though not guaranteed.

You install and bring to life the critical equipment that keeps surgical and sterile processing teams moving efficiently and safely—sterilizers, surgical lights/booms, and related utility connections—in operating rooms and central sterile areas. From the moment you arrive to the time the system is tested and handed off, you’re enabling top-tier patient care.
