: Well, as they say, it takes two to tango, and in my opinion co-development implies that there were TWO parties involved. For example: "IBM displays computers co-developed with China". I'm not sure if 'co-devleopment' applies here.

aid in the development
Or: "participate in the development"
Or: "contribute to the development"
Or: "play a role in the development"
Etc.
But without more context, it's hard to know.

Since this is for a CV, I'd put it in the past tense:
"helped develop a medical procedure"
You may want to check with the client. If this person's role in the development was important, I'd advise you to write something like this:
"played a key role in the development of a medical procedure"
Or: "contribute to the development"
Or: "play a role in the development"
Etc.
But without more context, it's hard to know.

In a CV you can write it this way...
Mitentwicklung eines medizinischen Verfahrens = Co-developer of a medical process
Mitentwicklung eines medizinischen Verfahrens = Co-developer of a medical process

: Doesn't "co-development" imply that there were TWO parties involved? That's information that we don't have. Perhaps THREE or more parties worked to develop this procedure. We would need more context to be sure. And it's a procedure, not a process.
