TL;DR · Principal Scientist, Imaging Analytics

Principal Scientist, Imaging Analytics joins the Interventional Oncology team to lead the scientific application of medical imaging Artificial Intelligence across an early-phase oncology portfolio. The role involves transforming routinely collected CT, MRI, and PET scans into evidence-based clinical-development decisions by developing novel quantitative metrics and advancing foundational AI capabilities like automated segmentation, radiomics, and multimodal predictive modeling. This position serves as a bridge between data science and clinical development, managing external partnerships with vendors and academic centers to accelerate model deployment. The ideal candidate possesses a PhD in a quantitative field and expertise in Python, PyTorch, MONAI, SimpleITK, and OpenCV. They will manage the full imaging data workflow, including DICOM I/O and harmonization, to solve complex problems regarding response assessment and dose optimization within oncology drug development programs.

What you'll do

  • Lead end-to-end AI applications on trial imaging data to develop quantitative measures and AI-derived endpoints.
  • Conduct hands-on research in automated segmentation, radiomics, and multimodal predictive modeling for oncology drug development.
  • Translate complex quantitative findings into clear scientific narratives for cross-functional stakeholders.
  • Provide scientific leadership to external partners including vendors, CROs, academic centers, and imaging OEMs.
  • Manage the full medical imaging data workflow including DICOM I/O, registration, harmonization, and segmentation of 3D images.
  • Publish and present scientific innovations at major clinical and technical conferences like MICCAI, AACR, and RSNA.
  • Develop evidence-based clinical decisions for oncology trials using CT, MRI, and PET scans.

What we're looking for

  • Ph.D. in Computer Science, Biomedical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related quantitative field.
  • 3+ years of post-doctoral or industry experience developing AI/ML for medical imaging in a clinical setting.
  • Hands-on expertise in deep learning (segmentation, detection, classification, registration), radiomics, and multimodal predictive modeling.
  • Proficiency in Python and PyTorch with experience in libraries like MONAI, SimpleITK, ITK, PyRadiomics, nnU-Net, 3D Slicer, and OpenCV.
  • Experience with cloud ML infrastructure and MLOps practices for scalable training and inference on imaging data.
  • Extensive experience with the full medical imaging workflow including DICOM I/O, visualization, registration, harmonization, and segmentation of 3D images.
  • Strong peer-reviewed publication record and ability to communicate complex scientific concepts to technical and cross-functional audiences.
