Senior Software Engineer - Image Reconstruction (C++/CUDA)

Job Title Senior Software Engineer - Image Reconstruction (C++/CUDA) Job Description Senior Software Engineer - Image Reconstruction (C++/CUDA) Join the Computed Tomography (CT) High-Performance Computing team and help build the future of medical imaging. Your work will reach clinicians and patients in Philips CT scanners around the world. The Challenge: Re-imagine an entire CT reconstruction pipeline—from raw detector physics to the final image—as a fully GPU-native, massively scalable implementation. Engineer for the next generation of CT, where data-processing volumes will grow orders of magnitude beyond what is possible today. Architect that leap in C++ and CUDA, tackling a problem that demands fundamentally new approaches to computing not incremental optimization. Pioneer the creative use of AI to replace computationally expensive physics models with fast, learned equivalents, all without compromising image quality. Your role: Design and develop our next-generation, GPU-accelerated platform architecture. Partner with architects, engineers, physicists, and stakeholders to translate complex signal and image processing algorithms into scalable, high-performance implementations—balancing image quality against computational cost. Collaborate with CT platform teams to design, develop, test, maintain, and deploy an industry-leading CT reconstruction software platform. Analyze algorithm specifications and prototypes to identify efficient compute designs. Apply AI both ways—using AI-assisted development to speed feature delivery, and building learned models that approximate expensive physics with fast, accurate equivalents. Deliver solutions with a strong focus on end users, quality (QMS/regulatory standards), performance, safety, and security. This hybrid role is based in Cleveland, OH, with three flexible days in the office and two remote days each week; regular travel is not typically required. You're the right fit if: You have a bachelor’s degree or higher in Computer Science, Electrical or Computer Engineering, Mathematics, Physics, Biomedical Engineering, or a related field; a background in the theory of medical image formation is a plus. You have 5+ years of professional experience developing and maintaining complex software systems in C++. You are proficient in image and signal processing. Experience with MATLAB and Python is helpful, but strong C++ proficiency is the primary requirement for this role. You have experience with GPU programming (CUDA, OpenCL, or HIP), or you are adaptable and eager to transition into GPU-centric development. You are energized by performance engineering—profiling, parallelization, and squeezing every last bit of throughput from modern GPUs. Curiosity about applying machine learning to accelerate scientific or physics computation is a strong plus. You have ability and desire to collaborate closely with CT global development teams across the world. You must be able to successfully perform the following minimum Physical, Cognitive and Environmental job requirements with or without accommodation for this position.  How we work together We believe that we are better together than apart.
