Mobile Health Technician
Patient care technician job in Palo Alto, CA
Are you passionate about helping people achieve their health goals but tired of the typical grind or sales-based roles? As a Mobile Health Technician, you'll focus on what you love-one-on-one interaction and making a real difference-without the pressures of building a client base. You'll be at the heart of numerous health journeys, celebrating successes and offering support in a role that's as rewarding as it is dynamic.

Grit: You're the type of person who doesn't mind getting up early to beat traffic so you can get somewhere on time. You're not intimidated by driving a van, and you're not afraid to get your hands dirty and change the oil.
Curiosity: You are energized by being in a new environment every day, seeing new sights and meeting new people.
Resourcefulness: When you see something broken, you don't wait for someone else to fix it, but rather propose solutions and become part of implementing them.

Standardized Test Scores: If you've taken any standardized tests such as the SAT, ACT, ASVAB, or others, we request you to share your scores. This is not a requirement and will not be a sole determining factor for hiring decisions, but it helps us learn more about our candidates since we do not conduct pre-employment testing.
