Entry Level Software Engineer Jobs in Kent, OH (NOW HIRING)

Software Engineer - Image Reconstruction (C++/CUDA)

Continue your engineering career on a team building the future of medical imaging. Join the Computed Tomography (CT) High-Performance Computing team, where you'll grow alongside experienced engineers and physicists-and see your work reach clinicians and patients in Philips CT scanners around the world.

Your role:

• Contribute to the development of our next-generation, GPU-accelerated reconstruction platform under the guidance of senior engineers.
• Work alongside engineers, physicists, and other team members to implement signal and image processing algorithms in efficient, high-performance code.
• Write, test, document, and maintain software as part of an industry-leading CT reconstruction platform.
• Learn to analyze algorithm specifications and prototypes to help identify efficient compute designs.
• Use AI-assisted development tools to speed your work, and explore how learned models can approximate expensive physics with fast, accurate equivalents.
• Deliver quality software with a growing focus on end users, quality (QMS/regulatory standards), performance, safety, and security.

You're the right fit if:

• You have a bachelor's degree or higher in Computer Science, Electrical or Computer Engineering, Mathematics, Physics, Biomedical Engineering, or a related field; a background in the theory of medical image formation is a plus.
• You have 1+ year of professional experience, including internships or co-ops, developing software in C++.
• You have a strong foundation in C++ from coursework, projects, or work experience, and you are eager to deepen it-some of our best engineers came straight from programs that teach computer science in C++.
• Exposure to GPU programming (CUDA, OpenCL, or HIP) is a plus, but a genuine eagerness to learn GPU-centric development matters most.
• You have a foundation in image or signal processing; experience with MATLAB and Python is helpful, but strong C++ fundamentals are the primary requirement for this role.
• You are excited by performance-curious about profiling, parallelization, and getting the most out of modern GPUs. Curiosity about applying machine learning to accelerate scientific or physics computation is a plus.
• You must be able to successfully perform the following minimum Physical, Cognitive and Environmental job requirements with or without accommodation for this position.

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.
