About The Position

Deliver diagnostic excellence—producing high-quality mammography images with precision, compassion, and confidence while making every patient feel seen, respected, and cared for. At SimonMed, mammography is one of the most consequential things we do. Our Mammography Technologists are essential to delivering the advanced outpatient imaging our patients depend on—and in this modality, the image you produce, the compression you apply, and the way you speak to a patient who is nervous or in pain all matter deeply. From screening and diagnostic mammograms to tomosynthesis, this role ensures every exam meets the highest clinical standards with genuine human care at the center. We are looking for a tech who takes pride in technical precision, thrives in a fast-paced but supportive environment, and understands the weight and purpose of this work. If you find meaning in early detection, value efficient workflows and advanced technology, and want to grow within a collaborative team that holds itself to a higher standard—this is where you belong.
