  • create, develop and experimentally and clinically implement AI based algorithms
  • support the acquisition and analysis of clinical data, and imaging, software and equipment infrastructure
  • contribute to scientific publications, research dissemination and the development of competitive funding proposals
  • undertake clinical site visits to support technology installation, testing and implementation, as required.

  • demonstrated track record of publishing research findings in peer-reviewed scientific journals
  • knowledge of software and mathematical algorithm development, especially in artificial intelligence

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
