Proven experience in developing clinical software features , including design, implementation, and validation

Solid foundation in software architecture and system design with the ability to translate clinical needs into scalable solutions

Strong programming experience in C++ (performance-critical systems) and Python (prototyping and data analysis)

Experience in imaging algorithms and reconstruction techniques , with a focus on performance and IQ improvement

Understanding of Autonomous MR concepts , including adaptive imaging, workflow automation, and intelligent systems

Experience with software quality processes , including test automation, CI/CD, and regulated development environments

Strong problem-solving and debugging skills in complex system environments

Ability to collaborate effectively across cross-functional teams and drive technical alignment

Experience using modern development tools and AI-assisted coding to improve efficiency

Demonstrated ability to mentor, guide, and influence teams in a non-hierarchical environment

How we work together:

We believe that we are better together than apart. For our office-based teams, this means working in-person at least 3 days per week.

Onsite roles require full-time presence in the company’s facilities.

Field roles are most effectively done outside of the company’s main facilities, generally at the customers’ or suppliers’ locations.

This role is an office-based role.
