We're a proud family owned and operated, growing manufacturing company located on MBTA bus lines and the Needham commuter rail. We have a fantastic team with low turnover in part because we treat people the right way---with respect---and give them opportunities to grow and learn new skills. If your current employer leaves you feeling underappreciated or lacks opportunities, we are the opposite. We operate in a fast paced environment with intense focus on producing quality product that we are proud to ship to our customers---products that help save lives.

We’re also open during the recent COVID-19 orders as an essential medical device manufacturer. Our hiring needs existed before the recent crisis---and we’re looking for long term. If you’re looking for only a short term stopgap while on furlough or temporary layoff, we’re probably not the right place for you.
