Connecting Medical Device Professionals

Welcome to Ocean Medical

Operating Room
Fewer resumes. Better hires.
You don’t need volume, you need alignment.
We don’t pitch jobs. We don’t flood inboxes.
We listen, we map, and we deliver candidates in the top 20%. Professionals already performing, not passively applying.
If you're looking for someone who truly fits - technically, culturally, and mentally - you're in the right place.
No gimmicks. No fluff. 
We dig deeper than titles and checklists, decode the culture, and vet candidates with the same scrutiny you'd expect from your own team.
This isn't guesswork.
It's a refined system built to surface the top 20% talent.
Clarity, not chaos.

Search Specialties

We speak the language of your discipline.

R&D

Where innovation meets execution.

We recruit professionals who understand iterative development, design input/output, and how to collaborate across RA, QA, and Clinical without slowing momentum. We recognize real technical depth, and we know when someone’s just reciting the process.

Clinical

Detail-obsessed,

timeline-driven.

From protocol development to site management and regulatory liaison, we identify people who drive progress while navigating IRB coordination, vendor oversight, and shifting trial demands. We look for clinical contributors who take initiative, not just direction.

Quality and Regulatory

No room for error, no time for guesswork.

From QMS development to submission prep and audit readiness, we understand what it takes to stay inspection-ready without stalling innovation. We don’t confuse checkbox compliance with strategic thinking and neither should you.
