This assignment is designed to elevate your technical proficiency and collaborative impact in high-stakes operating rooms, while offering you the adventure of travel across diverse clinical settings. As you prepare and pass instruments, maintain sterile technique, and support the surgical team through a variety of procedures, you’ll directly influence patient safety and outcomes. You’ll rotate through a spectrum of cases, from routine to complex, gaining exposure to different surgeons, OR teams, and hospital environments. Beyond the bedside, California’s breadth of landscapes offers unforgettable downtime—explore redwood groves, alpine lakes, sunlit coastlines, Napa Valley vines, and vibrant city life—all while expanding your professional horizons in a state known for its innovation and care.

Marysville sits nestled in California’s Gold Country, offering a comfortable, family-friendly base with proximity to Sacramento and the broader Bay Area for further exploration. Marysville and surrounding communities provide a supportive healthcare market, well-suited for skilled surgical techs seeking ongoing opportunities to refine technique, master perioperative workflow, and contribute to positive patient experiences. For clinicians who crave variety, there’s the potential to work across multiple locations within the United States, enabling exposure to a range of hospital cultures, equipment, and patient populations.

The position provides clear pathways for growth within the surgical tech discipline: advance proficiency in advanced sterile technique, develop leadership capabilities by coordinating small teams during cases, and pursue cross-training opportunities in related areas such as robotics support, instrument management, and perioperative nursing collaboration. In terms of benefits, you’ll find competitive weekly pay within the stated range, with opportunities for a sign-on or completion bonus, as well as housing assistance or stipends to ease relocation. Extension opportunities may be available for assignments that align with your career goals, enabling longer-term professional development and continuity in your practice. The role is supported by a robust network of resources, including 24/7 assistance from our travel support team, dedicated clinical supervisors, and on-demand access to experienced peers who can offer guidance, troubleshooting, and reassurance wherever your assignment takes you.
