Cardiac Echo Technologist - Beverly Hills

Atria Health Institute Echocardiography Role

The Atria Health Institute is a membership-based primary and specialty health care practice with a focus on prevention and longevity. We bring together a multidisciplinary team of renowned physicians to provide proactive, preventive, and precision-based care for Atria members and their families. All care, including primary care, advanced screening and diagnostics, urgent care, specialty care, home visits, and imaging is included in members' annual fee.

Our mission is to make healthspan and lifespan equal for all by translating science into medicine in real-time, all while bringing humanity back into health care. Delivering such robust, personalized, and preventive health care is complex and requires a team-wide dedication to excellence.

After successfully opening our flagship Institute in New York in 2022 and expanding to South Florida in 2024, we are now bringing the Atria experience to the West Coast with the launch of our Los Angeles Institute in late spring 2026.

This is an extraordinary opportunity to join our founding LA team. You will be responsible for bringing rigor and thoroughness to the development of clinical operations in our largest clinic yet, as well as maintaining and supporting our strong and inclusive organizational culture and performance standards. In this hands-on role, you will collaborate with clinical, finance, technology, care coordination, hospitality, content, events, and experience and to drive excellence.

Role Responsibilities

• Advanced Diagnostic Execution: Perform high-quality 2D, 3D, and M-mode echocardiograms, including Stress Echo and Transesophageal (TEE) assistance. Ensure precise measurements of cardiac chambers, valves, and hemodynamics.
• Protocol Implementation: Execute and enforce specialized cardiac ultrasound protocols (Adult, Pediatric, and Stress) as defined by the Medical Director. Ensure compliance with ICAEL (IAC) standards.
• Quality Assurance & Over-Read: Conduct daily "on-the-floor" quality checks of echocardiograms. Review images for technical accuracy and diagnostic clarity before they are submitted to the Cardiologist for interpretation.
• Site Accreditation (IAC): Lead the data collection, case study selection, and documentation required for Intersocietal Accreditation Commission (IAC) renewals and site inspections.
• On-Site Clinical Training: Serve as the primary preceptor for staff echo techs. Provide real-time feedback on scanning techniques, conduct annual competency assessments, and lead "difficult case" reviews.
• Daily Workflow Management: Coordinate the daily cardiac schedule, prioritizing inpatient "stat" echoes and outpatient appointments to optimize laboratory throughput and reduce patient wait times.
• Staff Supervision: Manage the echo technologist team, including shift scheduling, timecard approval, and coordinating on-call rotations for weekends and holidays.
• Equipment Care & Bio-Med Liaison: Monitor the performance of all ultrasound systems and TEE probes. Oversee high-level disinfection (HLD) compliance and coordinate with vendors for preventative maintenance and repairs.
• Physician Liaison: Act as the primary technical point of contact for Cardiologists. Communicate critical findings (e.g., pericardial tamponade, acute valve failure) immediately to the reading physician.
• Patient Advocacy & Education: Explain complex cardiac procedures to patients and families; provide age-appropriate care ranging from pediatric to geriatric populations.
• Systems Proficiency: Master the use of EMR (e.g., Epic/Athena), RIS, and Cardiology-specific PACS (e.g., Lumedx, Syngo) for seamless reporting and image archiving.
