• Assist in guided‑surgery setups—because freehand is so 1995.
• Patient‑Whisperer
• Explain procedures like a TED Talk—minus the boring slides.
• Calm the nervous, hype the excited, high‑five the kids (and grown‑ups).
• Efficiency Gladiator
• Log ninja‑level notes in Curve Dental, track op turnover, and cheer when KPIs spike.
• Lead morning huddles that start on time, end on time, and actually matter.
• Integrity Sentinel
• OSHA, HIPAA, CDC—alphabet soup you actually follow.
• Background + employment checks required (because trust isn’t optional).

We’re Looking for Someone Who…

• Holds a valid California RDAEF2 license (radiography + CPR current).
• Rocks 2 + years placing composites and adjusting crowns like a boss.
• Has legit Invisalign attachment chops—no shaky hands, no excuses.
• Lives for gadgets, metrics, and doing it right the first time.
• Talks to humans like humans, laughs easily, and hates office drama.
• Thrives on a 32‑hour week that still feels full‑throttle.
