About The Position

Join our Linear Accelerator Systems group as a Systems Engineer responsible for the radiation-producing subsystem of our Radiation Oncology products. This role leads system requirements, integration, verification, and technical problem solving across a multidisciplinary engineering organization. The ideal candidate combines broad engineering fundamentals with hands-on experience developing and troubleshooting complex systems. We are looking for a versatile and well-rounded Systems Engineer to join our Linear Accelerator Systems group, which is responsible for the radiation-producing subsystem on our Radiation Oncology machines. The candidate will become part of an interdisciplinary team that includes microwave, electrical, mechanical, materials and servo algorithm engineers. This role is responsible for defining, managing, and verifying system requirements, solving technical system integration challenges, coordinating cross-functional technical activities, and ensuring successful integration of hardware, software, service and manufacturing considerations throughout the product lifecycle. The successful candidate will serve as the technical focal point for assigned subsystems, working closely with product management, engineering, manufacturing, quality, and field service organizations. This position requires strong systems thinking, excellent communication and project management skills and the ability to drive technically complex issues to resolution in a multidisciplinary environment. The ideal candidate combines breadth and depth in physics, electrical, mechanical and control systems engineering with hands-on experience in system-level design and troubleshooting. The ability to collaborate effectively in a multi-disciplinary and cross-functional team is essential, as is the ability to efficiently manage project timelines and supplier collaborations in a fast-paced environment. Experience executing these deliverables in a regulated environment and familiarity with Product Life Cycle Management is a big plus.
