We’re looking for a Veterinary Technician or Animal Rehab Assistant who is passionate about biomechanics, animal mobility, and making a meaningful impact in a unique and emerging field.

As part of our new and exciting clinical model, you’ll work directly with veterinary teams, helping pets regain mobility and improve their quality of life. If you are adaptable, deeply invested in animal health, and eager to build a specialized career path, we want to hear from you!
