Job Description

People Leadership & Team Development

• Lead and manage a team of AI/algorithm engineers: coaching, mentoring, performance development, hiring, and fostering a strong team culture.
• Create an environment that enables high-quality execution, learning, and innovation, balancing exploration with delivery.
• Set clear priorities, define roles, and help the team navigate ambiguity through structured decision-making.
  
  

Technical Leadership & Consultation (“Go-To” Expert)

• Serve as the technical authority for algorithmic decisions and as the first point of consultation for team members on architecture, methodology, evaluation, and risk mitigation.
• Guide technical strategy, propose new approaches, and ensure the team is making sound trade-offs (clinical value, robustness, usability, runtime constraints, product timelines).
• Lead technical discussions, design reviews, and critical algorithmic decisions across multiple parallel efforts.
  
  

End-to-End AI Product Delivery

• Lead advanced AI projects including scoping, requirements definition, roadmap planning, timeline ownership, and delivery execution.
• Translate clinical and user needs into measurable algorithm requirements, performance metrics, and acceptance criteria.
• Drive development of clinically focused machine learning and computer vision solutions, from research and prototyping to product-grade integration and lifecycle support.
• Partner closely with Software, Systems, Clinical, Product, and QA to align on deliverables, constraints, and integration plans.
  
  

Quality, Verification, and Regulated Product Mindset

• Support feature development within a regulated environment: verification planning, risk assessment, traceability, and documentation readiness.
• Contribute to regulatory and compliance-oriented activities (e.g., supporting evidence generation for submissions) through structured evaluation and robust engineering practices.
  
  

Innovation & Strategic Growth

• Advance the team’s technical agenda by identifying opportunities for new capabilities, workflow improvements, and novel algorithmic solutions.
• Maintain awareness of relevant advancements in AI/medical imaging and translate them into practical, differentiated product impact.
  
  

Required Qualifications

• Demonstrated ability to lead and develop people, including technical mentorship and team execution management.
• Strong problem-solving skills with a track record of delivering complex, cross-functional AI initiatives.
• M.Sc. or Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Biomedical Engineering, Mathematics, or equivalent experience.
• Experience leading algorithm development in applied settings, with proven ability to take concepts from idea to validated product outcomes.
• Comfortable working in a product environment requiring rigor: clear requirements, measurable validation, and disciplined delivery.
  
  

Preferred / Advantageous Experience

• Experience with medical imaging, ultrasound, or clinically oriented AI solutions.
• Experience deploying algorithms under real-world constraints (performance, robustness, usability, and operational variability).
• Familiarity with product development processes in regulated environments (verification, traceability, documentation).
  
  

Desired Qualities

• Creative technical leader that generates new ideas, challenges assumptions, and proposes practical novel solutions.
• Strong multitasker: can lead multiple concurrent efforts while maintaining clarity of goals and priorities.
• Excellent communicator: aligns stakeholders, explains complex concepts clearly, and drives constructive technical dialogue.
• Self-starter with a sense of ownership and a bias toward execution.
• Strong system-level thinking of how algorithms behave in the context of product workflows and user environments.
