Job Title: Certified Orthotist / Prosthetist-Orthotist (CO or CPO)
Location: Riverside, CA (Travel Possible)
Job Type: Full-time, in person
About Us
Johnson’s Orthopedic is a privately owned orthotics and prosthetics practice that specializes in pediatrics, with offices in Riverside, Pomona, and Hesperia. We still believe in custom work. Most of our devices are built in our own lab by a dedicated team of technicians, not shipped out to a central fab. Our clinicians stay hands-on through design and modification. Decisions here are made for the patient, not to hit a revenue target.
We are an orthotic focused facility including:
- Custom AFOs
- Scoliosis TLSOs
- Cranial remolding helmets
- Custom KAFOs, HKAFOs, and RGOs
- Pedorthics, especially diabetic shoes and inserts
Prosthetics is a growing division of our company and we are currently investing in new tools, including in-house 3D printing for check/test sockets, to meet that demand.
The Role
You’ll carry a mixed pediatric and adult caseload, mainly at our Riverside office. With satellite offices in Hesperia and Pomona, we are looking for someone able to travel to these offices when needed.
What you’ll do:
- Evaluate patients, cast or scan, and decide on the right device.
- Communicate with Physicians and Physical Therapists as needed for recommendations.
- Design devices and work directly with our fab techs on modifications and builds. This is a hands-on role, not just filling out order forms.
- Fit, align, adjust devices, and follow patients as they grow.
- Teach patients and families how to wear and care for their devices and what to expect.
- Keep clinical documentation current. Our admin team handles insurance authorizations and billing, so you can focus on patients.
- Work alongside residents in our NCOPE residency program and help mentor them.
What We’re Looking For
Required:
- ABC Certified Orthotist (CO) or Certified Prosthetist-Orthotist (CPO), or BOC Orthotist-Prosthetist.
- Comfort working with kids and their families.
Big pluses (we’ll train on what you don’t know yet):
- Scoliosis TLSO experience
- Cranial remolding
- Custom AFO, KAFO, HKAFO, and RGO experience
- Pedorthics and diabetic footwear
- Prosthetics experience (CPO)
- Digital scanning, CAD, or 3D printing
We don’t expect you to have mastered everything on this list. We care that you’re good with patients, good with your hands, and want to keep learning.
Pay (based on experience)
- CO: $80k-$110k per year
- CPO: $90k-$120k per year
Benefits
- Health, dental, vision, and life insurance
- 401(k) (with employer matching options)

What Employers Look For
The qualifications that appear most often in prosthetist orthotist jobs.
- Master's degree in prosthetics and orthotics from a CAAHEP-accredited program
- ABC or BOC board certification or eligibility with active state licensure

- Familiarity with Medicare coding, prior authorization, and L-code billing requirements
Tips for Your Prosthetist Orthotist Job Search
List your ABC certification prominently
Employers filter applications by credentialing status before reading anything else. Put your American Board for Certification in Orthotics, Prosthetics and Pedorthics credential and your state license in the header of your resume, not buried in a skills section.
Tailor your resume to patient population
A pediatric orthopedic clinic and a VA facility want very different clinical profiles. Rewrite your summary and bullet points to match the patient population in each job posting. Geriatric, pediatric, and trauma populations each signal different competencies to hiring managers.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists prosthetist orthotist openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Show fabrication breadth in your application
Many candidates list patient care but skip clinical fabrication experience. Specify the materials and techniques you've worked with, such as thermoplastics, carbon fiber laminates, or CAD-CAM systems, because fabrication depth is a real differentiator in smaller practices that don't outsource to labs.
Prepare outcome-based interview answers
Interviewers at hospital systems and rehab networks ask about functional outcome metrics. Come prepared with specific patient cases where you measured ambulation progress, reduced pain scores, or improved ADL performance, framed around the clinical goals documented in the care plan.
Negotiate your on-call and travel terms early
Many prosthetist orthotist roles, especially at hospital outreach clinics and mobile care programs, include rotation or travel requirements. Clarify the schedule and geographic scope during the offer stage, not after you accept, so there are no surprises about coverage territory.
Prosthetist Orthotist Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most prosthetist orthotists?
The companies hiring the most prosthetist orthotists right now include Hanger, Sanford Health, and Cranial Technologies, with the largest share of openings in California, Texas, and Minnesota, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. National orthotic and prosthetic networks tend to post the highest volume of openings year-round.
How many prosthetist orthotist jobs are remote?
About 0% of prosthetist orthotist openings are fully remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting the hands-on nature of most clinical roles. The positions most likely to allow remote work are those involving telehealth consultations, clinical education, product specialist roles for device manufacturers, and administrative or compliance-focused positions within larger health networks.
How do you become a prosthetist orthotist?
You earn a master's degree from a program accredited by CAAHEP, then complete a residency covering both prosthetics and orthotics under a credentialed practitioner. After residency you pass the ABC or BOC board exams to become certified. Most states require you to hold that certification before applying for a state license, which is what employers verify before you can practice independently.
How do you get hired as a prosthetist orthotist with little experience?
New graduates should apply to residency-to-hire programs at large orthotic and prosthetic networks, which are designed to bring residents directly into full-time roles after credentialing. Highlighting hands-on fabrication from your master's program, any clinical rotation sites with high patient volume, and familiarity with the billing codes used in outpatient O and P practices all help compensate for a short work history.
What does the prosthetist orthotist interview process look like?
Most employers start with a phone screen focused on your credentialing status and clinical background, followed by an in-person or video interview with the clinical director or practice owner. You'll typically be asked to walk through a complex fitting case, describe your fabrication process for a specific device type, and explain how you document functional outcomes. Some hospital systems add a peer panel or a brief practical assessment.
Where can I find and apply to prosthetist orthotist jobs?
You can find and apply to prosthetist orthotist jobs on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from across the United States. Search the listings to find roles that match your credentials, clinical specialization, and preferred location, then apply directly to each one that fits.
