# Medical Engineer

> Sapsol Technologies Inc · Nashville, United States (Hybrid) · Contract · Posted 2026-03-30

**Salary:** USD 65–70

**Workplace:** hybrid

## Description

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 Children’s 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 Children’s 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** (preferably **Philips** 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**

-   **Master’s 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.
