Biomedical/Medical Device Industry

Job Requirement:

Need project/program management skills with basic SW and MRI understanding (preferred)

Our customer is trying to develop some SW related to 2 MRI workstreams namely oscillating gradient diffusion (OGSE/OGD) MRI methods in partnership with Vanderbilt University and collaborating clinical research sites and FLORET UTE Imaging in collaboration with Cincinnati Childrens Hospital.

Here is the detailed JD:

Role Summary

The MRI Technical Program Engineer will support 2 workstreams viz. the development refinement and validation of oscillating gradient diffusion (OGSE/OGD) MRI methods in partnership with Vanderbilt University and collaborating clinical research sites and FLORET UTE Imaging in collaboration with Cincinnati Childrens Hospital. The role combines technical implementation and coordination responsibilities to ensure successful execution of program deliverables focused on MRI pulse sequence development research software integration and data processing within the Philips MRI research ecosystem.

This position is designed for a technically strong engineer who excels in coordination and structured execution. While hands-on work in sequence development and data workflows is expected the role does not require independent subject-matter leadership in diffusion MRI.

Core Responsibilities:

Program and Project Coordination

Manage end-to-end workstream timelines and ensure progress aligns with sprint milestones and program schedules.

Track technical documentation deliverables risks and key meeting actions.

Facilitate effective communication between Philips internal teams Vanderbilt researchers and participating sites.

Monitor scope execution to ensure alignment with planned activities and deadlines.

Support preparation compliance and tracking of research collaboration documents agreements and contractual elements.

Qualifications

Required

B.S. or M.S. in Electrical Engineering Biomedical Engineering Physics Computer Science or related field.
Experience in MRI pulse sequence development (e.g. Philips R5/R6 research environment or other vendor research platforms).
Proficiency in MRI principles especially diffusion imaging fundamentals.
Strong organizational and program coordination skills in a technical environment.
Ability to communicate effectively across engineering academic and research stakeholders.
Experience with MATLAB Python or similar tools for MRI data processing.

Preferred

Previous exposure to oscillating gradient diffusion techniques (OGSE/OGD) or advanced diffusion MRI research.
Familiarity with Philips MR Open Interface RFP or research integration frameworks.
Experience working in multi-institution collaborations or research consortia.

Position 2 MRI Technical Engineer

Rate: $75-$85/hr on C2C

Role Summary

This role supports the development integration and validation of advanced MRI methods across two research workstreams:

Oscillating Gradient Diffusion (OGSE/OGD) in collaboration with Vanderbilt University and
FLORET based UTE imaging (non Cartesian) in collaboration with Cincinnati Childrens Hospital.

The engineer will coordinate program execution while contributing technically to pulse sequence implementation image reconstruction and software refinement and data processing within the Philips MRI research environment. The emphasis is on program oversight technical coordination and collaborative execution rather than independent subject matter leadership in diffusion MRI or FLORET.

Note: This role focuses on technical engagement and delivery. It does not include clinical trial operations or regulatory ownership.

Core Responsibilities

A) Technical Development Pulse Sequence (OGSE/OGD)

Refine and extend existing OGSE pulse sequence code in the Philips research environment.
Implement additional features improve robustness and ensure correct sequence functionality.
Support deployment and on scanner integration on Philips MRI systems.
Contribute to related data processing and image reconstruction workflows when required.

B) Image Reconstruction & Software Development (FLORET / Non Cartesian)

Implement and validate non Cartesian MRI reconstruction pipelines (including those supporting FLORET UTE acquisitions).
Support software deployment and integration of reconstruction tools within Philips research systems.
Refine reconstruction workflows add new features and improve system interfaces and usability.
Perform data validation and quality checks; evaluate reconstruction stability and artifact behavior.

C) Experimental Collaboration & Validation

Coordinate experiment planning with Vanderbilt researchers Cincinnati Childrens teams and clinical MRI staff.
Support execution of scanner experiments as needed.
Assist with validation of OGSE and FLORET acquisition outputs through systematic testing and comparative analysis.
Prepare technical validation summaries/reports and ensure outputs align with program deliverables and milestones.
Document results assumptions and change histories with strong discipline.

Qualifications

Required

Strong familiarity with vendor specific MRI pulse sequence programming (preferablyPhilips research environments).
Solid foundations in MRI reconstruction including non Cartesian methods and software engineering.
Hands on experience with C / Python / MATLAB for algorithm and tooling development.
Ability to collaborate effectively across industry and academic partners; clear written and verbal communication.
Proven ability to operate under hardware constraints and in structured sprint based execution models.

Preferred

Masters or PhD in MRI Physics Biomedical Engineering Medical Physics Electrical Engineering Computer Science or related field.
Experience with Philips MRI research environments (e.g. research interfaces integration workflows).
Exposure to OGSE/OGD diffusion methods and/or FLORET UTE imaging (deep expertise not required).
Experience with MRI data processing QA/QC and validation workflows.
