Simulation Expert (MRI systems)

Job Description

Simulation Expert (MRI systems)

Your Role:

Developing and applyingcomputational models, mainly inelectromagnetics (e.g. RF, EMC) and selectively acrossthermal, structural, and CFD domains, to guide MRI hardware R&D decisions.

• Translatingsystem-and subsystem-level requirements into appropriate mathematical and computational models with the right level of fidelity
• Evaluatingperformance, safety, and reliability aspects through simulation and clearly communicating results and limitations
• Performingconcept, feasibility, and trade‑off studies to guide design choices and technology development
• Ensuringmodel credibility, documentation, and traceability in line with internal standards and regulatory expectations
• Supportingsystem‑level insight by integrating models across multiple physics and engineering domains
• Planning and prioritizing modelling activities, estimating effort, and reporting progress to stakeholders
• Collaborating closely with multidisciplinary teams to ensure modelling results areactionable and aligned with project needs
• Staying up to date withadvancements in modelling methods, simulation tools, and medical imaging technology
• Mentoring junior engineers and contributing to thecapability growth of the HW Modelling team

You Are a Great Fit If:

• AMaster’s degree or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Applied Physics, Biomedical Engineering, or a related discipline
• Should have5+ years ofindustry experiencein relevant areas.
• Strong hands-on experience withcommercial simulation tools (e.g.Ansys, CST, Sim4Life, COMSOL, MATLAB Simscape/Simulink)
• Programming experience inMATLAB and/or Python for model development, automation, and analysis (C/C++ is a plus)
• Experience inmedical technology, preferablyMR R&D or a closely related domain
• A solid foundation inmechatronics, applied mathematics and physics, with the ability to understand, explain, and validate the underlying assumptions and limitations of simulation models
• Demonstratedresearch mindset, such as publications, workflow improvements, or new modelling techniques

You will stand out if you also have:

• Proven ability totranslate complex system-level challengesinto computational and mathematical models
• Familiarity withAI- or data-enabled modelling approaches, including surrogate or reduced-order models
• Experience working inmultidisciplinary, global R&D environments, engaging effectively with engineers, scientists, and stakeholders
• A proactive, innovative mindset with the ability to workindependently while contributing strongly to team objectives
• Hands-on experience withRF transmit/receive coils and birdcage resonatorsor other MRI components

How we work together:
We believe that we are better together than apart. For our office-based teams, this means working in-person at least 3 days per week.

• Onsite roles require full-time presence in the company’s facilities. 
• Field roles are most effectively done outside of the company’s main facilities, generally at the customers’ or suppliers’ locations.
• This role is an office-based role.
