# Program Engineer

> Sapsol Technologies Inc · Nashville, United States · Contract · Posted 2026-04-09

**Salary:** USD 50–65

**Workplace:** on_site

## Description

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 Children’s 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 Children’s 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.
