Why this role, and why now?
Arbutus Medical is reinventing how surgery is done Outside the OR, starting within the ER, where surgeons struggle with 1M+ bedside procedures a year due to outdated workflows. We’re building the market’s first portfolio of procedure kit “grab bags” to streamline these procedures, and have launched two FDA-cleared products to date, TrakPak (to streamline bedside skeletal traction) and SwiftKit (to streamline treatment of fingertip trauma). These are two truly differentiated products that solve practical workflow problems, saving up to 45 min/patient, helping hospitals win back resources and keep staff happy, while improving quality of patient care. We are already in 75+ U.S. hospitals (including more than 20% of all Level 1 Trauma Centers), have a high double-digit growth rate, and are backed by a deep roster of Canadian healthtech investors. Entering 2026, we are ready to accelerate product development and scale up US sales and medical education to set a new standard of care in our target procedures.

Competitive Salary
Our salary budgets are designed using comprehensive market data and to reflect the range of skills and experience we need for the position and allow room for growth. For experienced individuals we typical hire at the mid-point of the band. The top portion is reserved for employees who demonstrate sustained high performance and impact at Arbutus.



Those who are new to the role may join below the mid-point and develop their skills overtime. The final offer amount for this role will depend on applicable skill set of the candidate.

Our Commitment to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
Arbutus Medical is committed to making diversity, equity, and inclusion part of everything we do, from how we build our products to how we build our workforce. Also, let us know if we can provide any specific accessibility considerations throughout the interview and candidate screening process.
