About The Company
Every Organ Wasted is a Life Not Saved. TransMedics, Inc. is a commercial-stage medical technology company transforming organ transplant therapy for patients worldwide. Our mission is to help save more patients’ lives by increasing access to viable donor organs for those who are awaiting an organ transplant. To accomplish this mission, we partner closely with transplant stakeholders worldwide and help expand their access to healthy donor organs, while delivering the highest quality technology, service, and clinical care. With more than 25 years of commitment to excellence and innovation, TransMedics is at the forefront of advancing the field of organ transplantation. Our innovative Organ Care System (OCS™) technology is the only FDA-approved technology for lung, heart and liver transplant indications in the U.S., enabling the optimization and assessment of donor organs outside the human body and replacing a decades-old outdated standard of care: static cold storage (ice). Combined with our National OCS Program (NOP), a nationwide team of clinical experts, 24/7 logistics support, and the first-of-its-kind dedicated air & ground transport logistics network, we are enabling transplant centers to expand their search criteria for viable organ donors and grow overall transplant volumes in the U.S. www.TransMedics.com
About the Role

Job Description:

POSITION SUMMARY:

The Command Center Aviation Intern will support the development of structured training documentation and Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for multiple aviation-related roles. This role focuses on translating operational processes into clear, accurate, and compliant documentation.

  • Ensure documentation aligns with company policies and operational standards 

Regulatory & Operational Alignment

  • Ensure terminology and procedures reflect aviation safety culture 

  • Validate that processes are clearly structured and logically organized 

Process Organization & Improvement
