Peds & Congenital Electrophysiology Tech

Position Summary The Pediatric and Congenital Electrophysiology Technician at Mary Bridge Children’s provides advanced technical and patient‑care support for diagnostic and interventional pediatric EP procedures, including intracardiac mapping, ablations, device implantation (pacemakers/ICDs), and EP studies in infants, children, adolescents, and adults with congenital heart disease. The role emphasizes family‑centered care, radiation safety/ALARA, and seamless coordination across the Mary Bridge Children’s Heart Center’s multidisciplinary team. Through providing support during diagnostic, therapeutic, and interventional procedures you will apply independent decision‑making skills every day. The technician works in the scrub, circulator, and recording roles, acquiring, measuring, and calculating hemodynamic data, performing blood work analysis, preparing procedure rooms, prepping patients for procedures, transporting patients to and from the lab, cleaning procedure rooms, and preparing instruments for re‑sterilization. The technician directs and practices safety guidelines for themselves, staff, and patients and adheres to regulatory practices within the cardiac cath/EP lab. Position Details FTE: 1.0 | Shift: Days + Call | Schedule: 10‑hour shifts Essential Functions Prepare and maintain EP lab environment, ensuring compliance with safety and infection control standards. Perform direct patient care activities under the direction of the Pediatric Cardiac Cath Lab/EP Registered Nurse and/or the Cath Lab Operations Manager as necessary and appropriate. Set up EP/Cath equipment and supplies; verify function and calibration of electrophysiology recording systems, stimulators, and 3D electro‑anatomic mapping platforms. Maintain sterile field and infection‑control standards. Perform and document equipment QC; maintain inventory at specified par levels. Serve in scrub, circulator, and recording roles for EP procedures (e.g., SVT/VT/VF pathway mapping and ablation, EPS, temporary/permanent pacemaker and ICD implants), including hemodynamic data acquisition and calculations. Operate fluoroscopic systems with ALARA principles; utilize non‑fluoroscopic 3D mapping and image‑guided navigation to minimize radiation exposure for pediatric patients. Support ICE/echo, IVUS (if applicable), and assist with catheter/device management; troubleshoot system and signal quality issues. Support patient care before, during, and after procedures, including transport and monitoring. Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to ensure seamless care delivery. Requirements Graduate of an accredited cardiovascular technology or radiology program. Current Washington State Radiologic Technologist certification or Cardiovascular Invasive Specialist certification, or currently enrolled in the second year of an Invasive Cardiovascular Specialist program. Current RCIS or ARRT certification or commitment to obtain within 6 months of employment. Registered ARRT (VI) or Registered ARRT (CI) preferred. Registered Cardiac Electrophysiology Specialist (RCES) registry preferred, with commitment to obtain within 6 months if not already registered. Current AHA, BLS, and ACLS CPR certifications at time of hire; PALS strongly preferred or obtained within 6 months. At least one year of diagnostic radiology or interventional radiology experience required. Pediatric EP experience in a tertiary or quaternary care center. Experience with 3D mapping systems (e.g., CARTO/EnSite), ICE, low‑/zero‑fluoro workflows, and robotic magnetic navigation (e.g., Stereotaxis) for complex anatomies preferred. Strong knowledge of congenital heart disease and pediatric hemodynamics. Familiarity with ECMO and hybrid OR procedures preferred. #J-18808-Ljbffr Mary Bridge Children's Hospital
