A firm built around a hiring problem.

TruAlign Partners is a U.S.-based, boutique executive search firm focused on commercialization hiring in growth-stage MedTech and Life Sciences. Through our affiliation with MRINetwork, we extend that focus globally — while keeping every engagement partner-led.

FOUNDER PORTRAIT

Michelle Bohannon

Founder & Managing Partner

After two decades inside MedTech commercialization — building commercial teams, watching launches succeed and fail — I founded TruAlign because the way commercial leaders were being hired didn't match the risk those decisions actually carried.

Strong résumés. Confident interviews. Hires that didn't transfer. The pattern wasn't a candidate problem. It was a process problem. CarbonCore is the system I built to solve it.

How we work — and what we don't do.

TruAlign is deliberately structured against the patterns that make traditional executive search unreliable inside growth-stage environments.

01

Selective, not high-volume

We run a limited number of engagements at a time. Quality of evaluation is the constraint, not search throughput.

02

Partner-led, every engagement

You work with the person who owns the methodology. Engagements aren't delegated down to associate recruiters.

03

Structured, not relationship-driven

The same disciplined methodology runs on every engagement. Outcomes don't depend on who happens to be on the account.

04

Global reach, boutique delivery

Through MRINetwork affiliation, we support international searches without losing the partner-led model.

The strategy call is with the founder.

No intake forms routed to an associate. No qualifying call before the qualifying call. Direct conversation with the person who owns the methodology.
