Why Work at Lexington Medical, Inc.?


Lexington Medical, Inc. is a medical device company that designs and manufactures surgical stapling solutions, headquartered in Bedford, Massachusetts. Founded in 2013, we shipped our first product in 2018 and today support surgeons in nearly 40 countries from our 30,000-square-foot engineering and manufacturing facility.

Work on Something
That Has to Work

We build surgical staplers used in real procedures and are shaping the next generation of surgical stapling robotics. Whether you’re designing, manufacturing, or supporting our technology in the field, the work has to perform every time.

A Product
Worth Mastering

We focus on one category and keep improving it. It’s a tool surgeons rely on in many procedures, and one where performance really matters. That focus lets us engineer better solutions, whether refining the product surgeons use today or advancing our robotics work.

Real Feedback
Real Improvement

Surgeons use the product. We learn from their feedback and make the product better. There’s very little distance between the work and how it performs in practice — a lot of what’s in the field today didn’t exist that long ago.

Built for People
Who Want to Build

Our teams are small and close to the work. You take on real responsibility early and are expected to follow through. It’s a good place to learn by doing and to see the results of that work.
