About The Position

Cranial Technologies is the only company in the world completely dedicated to researching, diagnosing, and treating plagiocephaly (commonly called flat head syndrome). With over 300,000 babies successfully treated, we are the plagiocephaly experts and the leader in pediatric cranial shaping orthoses. Cranial Technologies also provides treatment with EarWell® to correct infant ear shapes without surgery. With over 600,000+ successful outcomes, EarWell® is a proven, non-invasive treatment option for families. For over 35 years, Cranial Technologies has provided a superior product, service, and the best possible outcome for every child with cranial asymmetry. We are the leading provider of Head Band Therapy used to treat plagiocephaly in infants. We are currently looking for a National Traveling Certified Orthotist based out of Chicago, IL! This is a full-time position for someone that is looking for an opportunity to practice in a variety of Cranial Technologies locations across the United States. This is an exciting opportunity to work outside of traditional orthotics in a niche, pediatric clinical outpatient setting exclusively with infants and their families. Do love to fly and travel around the United States? In this role you will travel to any state where we have a Cranial Technologies clinic. We’re currently in 32 states and are continuing to grow! Travel is typically on a Monday afternoon/evening. You work in the clinic Tuesday – Friday and fly home Friday afternoon/evening. You are home every Saturday and Sunday! You will be traveling every week, either to a local clinic or to another state. We are looking for candidates close to a major airport for ease of travel booking! Cranial Technologies will pay for your travel expenses, and you also get a per diem for your time there. All you need to worry about is treating our babies! Do you thrive in fast paced and new settings? You may be in a different clinic every week working with new teammates and building relationships across the company! You will be taking over a caseload for another clinician, so you are always meeting new families! What does a clinician do at Cranial Technologies? As a Clinician, you will treat infants to reshape head shapes with the DOC Band® and correct ear shapes with EarWell®. Pediatricians and parents alike look to our Clinicians as the experts in evaluation and in treatment of plagiocephaly as well as conditions involving misshapen ears. Our treating Clinicians develop great relationships with our families at every stage of their treatment process. We hire from various backgrounds because each background is a great fit in its own way. PTs and OTs are an excellent fit with their background knowledge of symmetry and asymmetry, cervical anatomy, torticollis, and infant/toddler development. Certified Prosthetist-Orthotists & Certified Orthotists are also a strong fit because of their hands-on experience with orthotics and direct patient care. A background in pediatrics is preferred, but not necessary as we have a formal training program that includes mentoring.
