Scaling Science: How Yoh Helped Genomics Platform Based Client Ramp Up Medical Device and Prototype Development

From bottleneck to breakthrough in biotech staffing.

Deadlines were closing in, and our client needed to build its product and prototype teams fast. Yoh stepped in with flexible staffing for product development and EOR payrolling support to fill critical gaps. Three years later, 74 roles were filled, delays were reduced, and Yoh became the go-to workforce partner for one of biotech’s most ambitious players.

The biotech powerhouse behind next-generation medical devices.

When the product can’t wait, neither can the people

Our genomics platform based client was racing to meet demand for its next generation of medical devices. Orders were piling up, production had hit a wall, and key engineering positions were still open. Every week of delay meant lost time in a market that moves fast.

They needed a staffing partner who could find the right specialists quickly, keep compliance airtight, and help steady their production teams.

The challenge was simple but urgent:

• Ramp up prototype and product development teams quickly
• Fix production delays before they affected output
• Meet rising demand for replacement parts
• Cut time-to-hire across 14 critical roles
  
  

Building a flexible life sciences hiring solution that could move at hyperspeed.

Yoh began with a detailed review of the client’s workforce—two years spent studying their structure, understanding where production was stalling, and identifying what kind of talent would actually make a difference. Instead of rushing to fill open seats, we focused on fixing the process behind the hiring.

Our solution combined targeted staffing with EOR payrolling, giving the flexibility to scale critical engineering and manufacturing teams as projects evolved. Yoh provided market insights to guide workforce planning, created a structured interview flow to help managers make faster hiring decisions, and ensured every placement met the strict compliance standards of medical device production.

Specialized talent across engineering, manufacturing, and support.

Our placements spanned every stage of medical device development, from early engineering design to manufacturing and quality control.

74 hires, 3 years, and one lasting partnership.

Over the course of three years, Yoh placed 74 professionals across 14 key roles—each critical to keeping the client’s prototype and production teams running at full speed. Through consistent results, Yoh earned preferred partner status and became a trusted extension of their workforce strategy.

The partnership not only improved time-to-hire and workforce planning but also helped them maintain production stability through multiple launches, proving that the right staffing model can scale innovation as fast as science itself.

When others stalled, Yoh delivered.
