About the job

Atec Spine is seeking a highly skilled Senior Data Scientist to spearhead the creation, development, and integration of innovative intraoperative guidance solutions utilizing fluoroscopic images. This pivotal role is dedicated to enhancing Image Landmark Detection, refining C-arm calibration algorithms, and advancing intraoperative navigation algorithms. The goal is to provide spine surgeons with precise, real-time surgical feedback. The ideal candidate will possess a robust technical background in image processing, coupled with a deep understanding of surgical workflows, and will be tasked with developing algorithms for 3D spatial guidance through advanced techniques such as image processing, image stitching, calibration, and depth correction.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Drive the definition, development, and enhancement of system-level accuracy for C-arm fluoroscopic imaging processing and landmark detection.
  • Innovate algorithms for stitching multiple fluoroscopic images while maintaining spatial orientation and accuracy.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including clinical research, marketing, and surgeons, to translate user requirements into effective algorithmic solutions.
  • Guide team members in the development of advanced image processing algorithms aimed at improving captured image quality.
  • Design and implement system and subsystem tests throughout the development phase, prior to verification and validation (V&V).
  • Assist in compliance testing and product certification processes, including IEC 60601-1 standards.
  • Work alongside project managers or oversee projects to ensure timely and budget-conscious delivery.
  • Participate in and support Design Control Phase reviews.
  • Generate detailed design documentation for seamless hand-off to V&V teams while mentoring others in formal test methods development.
  • Proactively identify and communicate testing challenges to foster cross-functional alignment.
  • Execute additional related tasks as assigned.

Qualifications:

  • In-depth knowledge of image processing techniques, including stitching, calibration, and depth correction.
  • Proven leadership capabilities within cross-functional technical teams.
  • Familiarity with FDA medical device regulations and compliance standards.
  • Strong documentation skills for processes, procedures, and results in alignment with regulatory requirements.

Education and Experience:

  • Master’s degree in Engineering, Physics, Mathematics, or a related field (e.g., Computer, Electrical, Mechanical, Systems Engineering).
  • A minimum of 5 years of experience in product development, particularly in the medical device sector.
  • 2 to 3 years of direct experience with fluoroscopic image processing.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Ph. D. in Engineering, Physics, or Mathematics.
  • Experience with surgical navigation systems and intraoperative imaging technologies.
