What does an MRI engineer do?

An MRI Engineer is responsible for installing, maintaining, and repairing MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) machines used in medical facilities. They ensure the equipment operates efficiently, troubleshoot technical issues, and perform regular calibrations. MRI Engineers may also assist with software updates and collaborate with medical staff to ensure optimal imaging performance. Their role is crucial in maintaining reliable diagnostic imaging for patient care.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an MRI engineer?

To thrive as an MRI Engineer, you need a strong background in electrical or biomedical engineering, physics, and experience with MRI system maintenance or development, often supported by a relevant degree. Proficiency with MRI scanners, troubleshooting tools, diagnostic software, and certifications like Siemens or GE MRI service training is commonly required. Strong analytical thinking, problem-solving skills, and effective communication help MRI Engineers excel when working with cross-functional healthcare or research teams. These abilities ensure reliable machine performance, fast issue resolution, and optimal support for clinical or research operations.

What are some common challenges faced by MRI engineers in day-to-day work?

MRI Engineers often encounter challenges such as identifying and resolving technical faults in highly complex systems, ensuring minimal downtime for clinical schedules, and staying up to date with rapid technological advancements. They may need to coordinate with hospital staff, manufacturers, or vendors to source replacement parts or implement updates efficiently. Balancing hands-on technical repairs with thorough documentation and compliance with safety regulations is also a key part of the role. These demands make adaptability, attention to detail, and strong communication especially important for MRI Engineers.

How do you become an MRI engineer?

To become an MRI engineer, you typically need a bachelor's degree in biomedical engineering, electrical engineering, or a related field. Gaining experience with MRI technology, medical imaging systems, and acquiring relevant certifications can enhance job prospects; advanced roles may require a master's degree or specialized training.

What is an MRI engineer?

An MRI engineer is a professional who designs, maintains, and improves magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) systems used in medical diagnostics. They often have expertise in biomedical engineering, electrical engineering, or related fields, and work with imaging hardware, software, and safety protocols to ensure optimal performance of MRI machines.

Job description

Aion MRI Engineer

At AION, we're building sci-fi medical devices. Our mission is to bring aging under full biomedical control. We believe this can be achieved through closed-loop hardware that reads and writes bioelectric states in living tissue using electromagnetic and acoustic fields – a control layer for cell reprogramming that chemistry and gene therapy fundamentally cannot provide.

We're looking for exceptional engineers to join us in building machines that make aging optional.

The role

As an MRI Engineer at AION, you will:

  • Design and build custom MRI hardware for experiments across cells, tissues, animals, and eventually humans
  • Work directly with scientists to translate informal experimental needs into functional imaging systems, fixtures, coils, sequences, and analysis pipelines
  • Design, fabricate, and test RF coils, gradient systems, low-field magnet assemblies, shielding, phantoms, sample holders, and bench-scale MRI hardware
  • Develop and optimize pulse sequences for low-field and experimental MRI, including approaches for relaxation mapping, diffusion, susceptibility, flow, and quantitative tissue-state imaging
  • Build reconstruction and signal analysis pipelines to extract biophysical data from MRI signals: T1, T2, T2*, diffusion metrics, conductivity-adjacent signals, phase, noise, drift, and field inhomogeneity
  • Close the loop between hardware and biology: design the scan, build the system, acquire the data, analyze the signal, and make the tool practical for scientists to use
  • Survey and prototype emerging MRI modalities: low-field MRI, portable MRI, magnetic resonance fingerprinting, quantitative MRI, MR elastography, electrical properties tomography, and hybrid electromagnetic imaging systems

You

We value mission alignment, integrity, and ambition over pedigree.

  • Strong first-principles thinker who is comfortable working with teammates outside your own domain
  • Generalist wiring: willing to learn across electromagnetics, hardware, biology, signal processing, and experimental design
  • Comfortable building real systems, not just simulations or papers
  • Experience with MRI physics, RF engineering, gradients, magnets, pulse sequence programming, reconstruction, or quantitative imaging is valuable, but obsessive technical ownership matters more
