Data Architect (Remote) - Radiology provides technical and analytical support to develop, design, and maintain applications for research and clinical functions. The role involves developing informatics solutions using software engineering expertise to manage complex inter-related systems and interfaces. Key responsibilities include identifying efficient data acquisition methods, managing data integration activities, creating data diagrams and models, and performing unit tests while mentoring junior staff. The position specifically focuses on the XNAT platform, an open-source medical imaging informatics tool used for research and clinical programs. Candidates will work with PostgreSQL, Java, Terraform, and AWS Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) to deliver stable releases and reduce technical debt. The role addresses critical challenges in medical imaging data management, requiring knowledge of DICOM standards, Linux server administration, and release engineering to support institutional partners within the medical imaging domain.

What you'll do

  • Develop, maintain, and modify software applications for research and clinical functions using XNAT platform technologies.
  • Deliver stable, well-tested XNAT releases on a predictable cadence while minimizing downtime and data-integrity risks.
  • Reduce the backlog of open XNAT defects and technical debt in core modules annually.
  • Create and perform unit tests and participate in active test case planning for new features.
  • Develop and maintain data diagrams and models using approved tools to improve performance.
  • Serve as a technical point of contact for institutional partners integrating with or extending the platform.
  • Mentor junior software engineers, other technical staff, and students on development tasks.
  • Identify and implement efficient methods for acquiring, storing, and delivering research and clinical data.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor’s degree or an equivalent combination of education and experience.
  • 5 years of experience in data-related fields.
  • Proficiency in PostgreSQL, Java, and Terraform.
  • Experience with AWS Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS), Bioinformatics, and Data Architecture Development.
  • Skills in Software Testing, Release Engineering, Systems Management, and Technical Consulting.
  • Knowledge of DICOM standards, medical imaging data formats, and Linux server administration.
  • Experience developing on or administering the XNAT platform or similar medical imaging informatics systems (preferred).
  • Experience with open-source project contribution, community code review, and issue triage (preferred).
