About The Position

Founded in 1996, Medical Murray is a privately owned medical device company specializing in the development, testing, and manufacturing of finished devices, components, and subassemblies. We partner with clients ranging from innovative startups to the world’s largest OEMs. Our expertise includes permanent implants, delivery systems, and complex catheters for vascular, gastrointestinal, urologic, and other interventional markets. Our culture is driven by five core values: Helpful, Happy, Personal Responsibility, Trustworthy and Clever & Skillful. These principles guide our work, our relationships, and our commitment to improving patient outcomes worldwide. If you thrive at the intersection of customers and operations — translating complex production realities into clear, professional communication — this role offers the opportunity to make a direct impact on customer satisfaction in a highly regulated manufacturing environment. As a Product Manager, you are the connective tissue between our customers and our Operations teams. You will not own internal authority over production decisions — instead, your strength lies in gathering the right data, organizing it clearly, facilitating productive conversations, and ensuring alignment across stakeholders. Customer satisfaction is the metric. Clear communication is the tool.
