He is a Principal Engineer at Stryker, a leading Medical Equipment Manufacturing company whose products impact more than 130 million healthcare patients annually.
Jonathan had the same problem most engineers face, and in fact, you might say itâs not a problem.

That role didnât exist at Stryker.
It does now, and weâll show you how.
