Clinical Application Specialist:
Pediatric Medical Devices
Location: Remote (with potential for limited travel)
Employment Type: Part-time (remote)
Reports to: CEO
Company Overview
We are a mission-driven medical device company focused on protecting medically complex children and
restoring peace of mind to the families and clinicians who care for them. Our flagship products — the LOCK 2000 Vest and the LOCK 3000 Belt — are designed to safeguard central lines, feeding tubes, and peritoneal dialysis catheters from mechanical forces and infection, two of the most common and dangerous complications in this population.
Families of medically complex children shouldn’t have to live in fear that everyday activity could lead to a life-threatening emergency. Our devices reduce risk, increase mobility, and help children live more freely; at home, in the hospital, and everywhere life takes them. By equipping clinicians with better tools and empowering caregivers, we aim to bring relief, dignity, and safer care to some of the most disadvantaged and underserved pediatric patients.
We work at the intersection of clinical excellence, innovation, and compassion — and we’re looking for people who want to do the same.
