emtensor is seeking a proactive and multidisciplinary Test Engineer to join our Vienna-based laboratory. In this role, you will be the backbone of our daily experimental operations, ensuring our brain imaging systems meet the highest standards of accuracy and reliability.
You will not just “run tests” — you will design them, analyze the data, and provide critical feedback that shapes the future of our medical technology. You will work directly with our electromagnetic brain imaging prototype, executing calibration procedures, phantom-based validation studies, and RF characterization workflows that feed directly into our regulatory documentation package (EU MDR).
Bachelor’s degree or higher (University, FH) in Medical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Physics, or a comparable technical field.
Execute the daily system calibration before each scanning session: empty field scan, automated S-parameter comparison against reference values, and verification of dual temperature sensor readings (ambient and intra-cavity). Log all results per calibration procedure. Escalate any out-of-tolerance conditions.
Conduct measurements and experiments using the emtensor brain imaging prototype. Operate the system according to approved procedures. Ensure data quality and traceability for every session.
Create and implement testing protocols to validate system performance across hardware and software iterations. This includes phantom-based performance studies (detection threshold, linearity, reproducibility) and cross-functional validation campaigns.
Perform precise S-parameter measurements using VNA equipment. Manage RF components and interconnects within the imaging system. Support antenna array characterization and inter-channel performance verification.
On a quarterly basis, support the export and cross-validation of CST Microwave Studio simulation results against measured empty-field baselines. Update calibration reference tables in coordination with Engineering.
Lead the V&V process for phantom imaging studies. Ensure compliance with technical and medical specifications. Contribute to test traceability documentation.
Maintain rigorous, audit-ready documentation of all test results, calibration records, anomalies, and troubleshooting steps using the established document management system. Reporting in English using Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint) and Markdown-based documentation tools.
Act as the operational interface between the laboratory and the development team. Provide data-driven insights to improve system design, calibration procedures, and phantom protocols.
This role covers the Scan Operator function within the emtensor laboratory. It does not include image reading or diagnostic interpretation, which requires separate medical qualification and is handled by a designated reader.
