Clinical Instructor Surgical Technology (Tampa)

About Stepful:

At Stepful, we’re on a mission to reimagine allied healthcare training by providing affordable, online, instructor-led and AI-enabled education to help learners - especially from underserved communities - launch high-demand healthcare careers on their own terms. In addition to our direct-to-consumer training model, Stepful partners with healthcare institutions to build talent pipelines and career pathways in an effort to mitigate the increasing allied health employee shortage. Our graduates - inclusive of Medical Assistants, Pharmacy Technicians and more - go on to work for leading institutions such as CVS, NY-Presbyterian and Walgreens.

Stepful is backed by Y Combinator, Reach Capital and AlleyCorp, and we recently closed a $31.5M Series B round led by Oak HC/FT. Additionally, TIME named Stepful the #1 EdTech company in the U.S. for 2025.

Stepful unlocks the full potential of the global workforce, improving access to quality healthcare for everyone, everywhere.
