Senior Engineer, (AI/ML Engineer - Medical Imaging)

Hiring Manager: Mukesh Vijayvargia
Recruiter: Srimayee Banerjee

Senior Engineer, (AI/ML Engineer - Medical Imaging):

The AI/ML Engineer will lead the design and implementation of advanced imaging algorithms for a next-generation healthcare platform focused on 3D reconstruction from medical modalities such as TEE and CT. This role involves applying state-of-the-art machine learning, deep learning, and computer vision techniques to enhance medical image understanding, segmentation, and reconstruction. The candidate will collaborate with cross-functional teams including frontend, backend, QA, DevOps, and clinicians to build AI-driven imaging solutions.

Key Responsibilities:

• Design, develop, and optimize AI/ML algorithms for medical image analysis, segmentation, and 3D reconstruction from TEE and CT images.
• Research and implement advanced deep learning architectures including CNNs, GANs, VAEs, and Diffusion Models for medical imaging tasks.
• Develop robust 3D reconstruction pipelines from 2D image data and multi-view geometries, tailored to medical imaging workflows.
• Perform multimodal image registration (CT-CT, CT-MRI, Fluro-Endo, 2D-3D) and develop tools for alignment, calibration, and fusion.
• Enhance and denoise medical images using advanced computer vision and AI-based enhancement techniques.
• Work extensively with DICOM data, integrating with PACS systems for data ingestion and retrieval.
• Collaborate with teams for dataset curation, labeling, and ground truth generation.
• Develop scalable training and inference pipelines on cloud platforms (AWS preferred; Azure/GCP acceptable).
• Ensure reproducibility and traceability in experiments using MLOps practices (Docker, MLflow, or similar).
• Collaborate with software engineers to integrate AI components into production-grade imaging applications.
• Document research findings, maintain version-controlled repositories, and contribute to technical publications or IP filings.
• Stay up-to-date with emerging trends in AI, computer vision, and medical imaging technologies.

Required Qualification:

• Bachelor’s, Master’s, or Ph.D. in Computer Science, Data Science, Biomedical Engineering, or related field with focus on AI, ML, or Computer Vision.
• 8+ years of hands-on experience in AI/ML model development with strong exposure to computer vision and imaging applications.
• Expert-level proficiency in Python and deep learning frameworks such as PyTorch and TensorFlow.
• Experience in 2D and 3D medical imaging (CT, MRI, Ultrasound, TEE) and DICOM data handling.
• Strong understanding of 3D geometry, camera calibration, stereo vision, and multi-view reconstruction.
• Experience in segmentation, registration, and object tracking within medical image contexts.
• Proficiency with classical computer vision techniques (OpenCV, PCL, feature detection, structure-from-motion, SLAM, etc.).
• Knowledge of generative and reconstruction models (GANs, VAEs, Diffusion Models) and fine-tuning methods for domain-specific applications.
• Experience with data preprocessing, augmentation, and pipeline automation for large-scale medical datasets.
• Familiarity with MLOps, containerization (Docker), and deployment workflows for cloud and edge environments.
• Experience using cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP) for model training and large dataset management.
• Strong software engineering fundamentals — version control (Git), testing, CI/CD, and documentation practices.
• Excellent analytical, communication, and collaboration skills with a strong commitment to quality and compliance in healthcare development.

Preferred Qualification:

• Experience in endoscopy imaging, image mosaicing, and fusion with ultrasound imaging.
• Experience in 3D visualization, rendering, and medical image annotation tools.
• Knowledge of reinforcement learning or self-supervised learning techniques for imaging applications.
• Background in signal processing or physics-based imaging reconstruction methods.
• Exposure to regulatory and quality systems in medical device software development (e.g., ISO 13485, IEC 62304).

Requisition ID: 620747 

The anticipated compensation listed above and the value of core and optional employee benefits offered by Boston Scientific (BSC) – see www.bscbenefitsconnect.com--will vary based on actual location of the position and other pertinent factors considered in determining actual compensation for the role. Compensation will be commensurate with demonstrable level of experience and training, pertinent education including licensure and certifications, among other relevant business or organizational needs. At BSC, it is not typical for an individual to be hired near the bottom or top of the anticipated salary range listed above.

Compensation for hourly, non-sales roles may also include variable compensation from time to time (e.g., any overtime and shift differential) and annual bonus target (subject to plan eligibility and other requirements).

Compensation for salaried, non-sales roles may also include variable compensation, i.e., annual bonus target and long-term incentives (subject to plan eligibility and other requirements).

Compensation for sales roles is governed by Sales Incentive Compensation Plan (which includes certain annual non-discretionary incentives based on predetermined objectives).

Our organization is across Canada and has commercial representation in 140 countries.

This job involves regular collaboration with colleagues, clients, and stakeholders across Canada, the U.S., and/or internationally, making proficiency in English essential for effective communication and alignment. English is necessary for engaging with a range of documentation and maintaining effective communication if interacting with external clients or vendors.

As detailed in the job description, this job involves communicating, both verbally and in writing, with other Boston Scientific teams located across Canada, the United States and/or with our international clients and partners. International customers and partners represent an important part of our activities. Based on an evaluation, we have determined that the duties of Senior Engineer, (AI/ML Engineer - Medical Imaging) position require knowledge of English in addition to French (oral and written). We also determined that the English language skills already required of other employees do not permit the performance of English language skills tasks related to Senior Engineer, (AI/ML Engineer - Medical Imaging) position.

However, in Québec, Boston Scientific limits as much as possible the number of positions for which it requires the knowledge of another language than French. Boston Scientific solely requires proficiency in English where it is necessary for the performance of an employee’s duties.
