Summary

As a Biomedical Services Specialist at DaVita, you’ll be a part of a Team that values work-life balance and where your personal and professional growth is a top priority.

Job description

DaVita has an open position for a Biomedical Services Specialist who keeps our life-giving dialysis treatments "up and running" every day in our clinics! Do you love repairing engines or other types of machines in your free time? Are you the person your friends and family turn to when something is broken? Do you thrive in a demanding environment? Does the thought of having fun at work make you want to know more? If you answered "yes" to these questions, you could play a vital role as one of DaVita's clinic guardians. Now is your time to explore your next journey—at DaVita.

What you can expect:

  • Be a part of a Team that appreciates, supports and relies on each other in a positive environment.
  • Performance-based rewards based on stellar individual and team contributions.

Requirements:

  • A high school diploma – Did you graduate from high school? Great! Did you graduate from a trade school/college biomed or electronics technology program? Even better! That type of education would support you well in this position.
  • A skilled electro-mechanical equipment technician – The best candidates will have performed this type of work at some point in the past, or have a demonstrated aptitude for it.
  • Great communications skills – DaVita teammates communicate openly, honestly and frequently with each other. You'll need to be a master at this.
  • Solid computer skills – Our teammates regularly use MS Office applications (Word, Excel and Outlook), the internet, and DaVita-specific applications to perform their work. We'll train you on the DaVita tools, but you'll need to come into the job with solid internet navigation and MS Office skills.
  • A valid driver's license – Our Biomed Techs typically need to drive their own automobiles to get from one clinic to another. You'll need a valid driver's license within the state you are applying for work, as well as valid automobile insurance and an acceptable driving record.
  • Available for on-call rotations – We're a healthcare provider, and sometimes our clinics and patients have needs late at night, on the weekends, and even during the wee hours of the morning. As a Biomed team, we are committed to meeting those needs, no matter what time the request comes in. We'll ask you to share in this commitment by taking an on-call rotation once in a while.
  • Close proximity – Our biomed technicians should reside fairly close to the clinics that they support, so they can provide adequate emergency response coverage. Your recruiter will discuss the clinic geography with you.
