Where Surgical Excellence Meets Southern California Living — Your Next Chapter Starts in Fontana
Few careers carry the weight and reward of surgical technology. You are the unseen backbone of every procedure — the steady hands behind the surgeon, the vigilant guardian of the sterile field, the professional who makes the impossible routine. And now, there's an opportunity to bring that expertise to one of the most vibrant and fast-growing healthcare communities in the Inland Empire of California.
This is more than a position. It is an invitation to grow — clinically, personally, and professionally — in a region where opportunity thrives and the sun almost never stops shining. If you hold your CST credential and carry a passion for precision, read on. This role was built with professionals like you in mind.
What Your Day-to-Day Will Look Like:
- Setting up and organizing the operating room prior to each surgical procedure
- Upholding strict sterile technique and infection prevention standards throughout every case
- Passing instruments, sutures, and supplies to surgeons and surgical assistants with accuracy and speed
- Managing and preparing all necessary surgical equipment before, during, and following procedures
- Tracking and verifying surgical counts and maintaining thorough documentation
- Monitoring inventory levels and ensuring every case starts with everything in place
- Functioning as a collaborative partner alongside nurses, anesthesia providers, and the broader OR team
Education Requirements:
- Graduate of an accredited Surgical Technology program
- High school diploma or GED equivalent
Required Certifications:
- Active CST (Certified Surgical Technologist) credential through NBSTSA or equivalent
- Current BLS certification (or willingness to obtain within 90 days of hire)
Skills That Will Help You Shine:
- Solid command of surgical instrumentation across a range of specialties and procedure types
- Composed, communicative, and collaborative — even when the pressure peaks
- Ability to read the room, anticipate needs, and react with precision under time constraints
- Deeply organized with an eye for cleanliness, detail, and procedural accuracy
- Expert-level understanding of aseptic technique and sterile field management
Why This Opportunity Stands Apart:
- Flexible scheduling options including days, evenings, and weekend shifts
- A high-performing surgical team that handles diverse case types across multiple specialties
- Ongoing education, skills development, and clinical ladder advancement opportunities
- Access to state-of-the-art surgical suites and modern technology
- Leadership that genuinely listens, supports, and advocates for its clinical staff
Life in Fontana, California — Where the Inland Empire Comes Alive
Fontana sits at an exciting crossroads — a city shedding its industrial past and stepping boldly into a future defined by growth, diversity, and energy. Nestled against the dramatic backdrop of the San Gabriel Mountains and just a short drive from both the beaches of Southern California and the pine forests of Big Bear, Fontana offers a lifestyle that refuses to be boxed in.
Weekends here can mean anything. You might find yourself hiking the trails of the Jurupa Mountains at dawn, spending an afternoon browsing the vibrant food scene along Foothill Boulevard, or making the easy drive west to explore the museums, concert halls, and cultural landmarks that Greater Los Angeles has to offer. The diversity of the Inland Empire means the cuisine is extraordinary — from authentic taquerias and Filipino bakeries to Korean BBQ and farm-fresh California fare that reminds you exactly why people fall in love with this state.
The weather is what Southern California dreams are made of — warm, sun-soaked days that make after-work walks feel like a reward. And while the cost of living in the Inland Empire is considerably more manageable than coastal counterparts, you still have access to world-class entertainment, professional sports, and a thriving arts scene just down the freeway.
This is a place for people who want it all — career momentum and lifestyle balance, community and adventure, purpose at work and joy outside of it.
A Surgical Team That Moves as One
The operating room demands a very specific kind of professional — someone who thrives under intensity, communicates without hesitation, and takes genuine pride in outcomes they may never fully see. That is the Certified Surgical Technologist. That is you.
Here, you will find a team that matches your dedication. A crew that has built genuine trust over countless cases, that celebrates the quiet victories of a clean closure and a safe patient, and that shows up for each other the same way they show up for the people on the table. In the OR, every role matters — and yours is central to everything that goes right.
You won't be a number here. You'll be a valued expert, a trusted teammate, and a key reason patients go home healthy.
Step Into Something Bigger
If you are ready to plant roots in a community that is growing as fast as your ambitions — and to work in a surgical environment that respects your training, values your instincts, and invests in your future — then this is the moment.
Apply today and bring your certification, your precision, and your passion to a team in Fontana, California that is ready to welcome exactly what you bring to the table.
