TL;DR · Principal Engineer, Medical Imaging Reconstruction and Raw-to-Insights AI

As a Principal Engineer in our medical imaging team, you will set the technical direction for advanced AI and signal-processing systems that operate directly on raw acquisition data from MRI, CT, PET, and other modalities. Your role involves defining the reconstruction and acquisition-AI charter across our imaging stack, building GPU-accelerated pipelines that span edge devices to cloud compute, and driving standardization efforts to enable ecosystem-wide collaboration. You will partner closely with existing ultrasound reconstruction efforts to ensure a cohesive approach across all modalities. Key responsibilities include advancing AI-based image quality improvements, interfacing with clinical partners, and mentoring senior engineers. Ideal candidates have a PhD in biomedical or electrical engineering, extensive experience building computational imaging systems, proficiency in GPU-accelerated computing, and a track record of creating impactful open-source platforms.

What you'll do

  • Define technical and architectural strategy for medical image reconstruction across modalities.
  • Design GPU-accelerated, real-time reconstruction pipelines spanning edge devices and cloud.
  • Advance AI-based techniques for denoising, motion correction, and uncertainty quantification.
  • Drive raw-data access, interoperability, and standardization for cross-vendor ecosystems.
  • Partner with ultrasound team to ensure comprehensive coverage of the acquisition layer.
  • Serve as a company-level technical authority, influencing product strategy and mentoring.

What we're looking for

  • PhD in biomedical/electrical engineering, computer science, medical physics, or related field with 12+ years experience.
  • Expertise in reconstructing medical images and understanding image formation physics at the raw-signal level.
  • Proficient in GPU-accelerated computing and infrastructure for deploying reconstruction at scale (C++, Python, CUDA).
  • Track record of building platforms/frameworks that leverage an ecosystem beyond immediate team.
  • Fluency with modern deep-learning methods for inverse problems and validation for clinical trustworthiness.
  • Ability to operate as a cross-organization technical leader setting direction and shaping strategy.
