About the Role

Deliver diagnostic excellence—producing high-resolution MRI images with precision, safety, and compassion while keeping patients calm and cared for through every scan. At SimonMed, MRI is not a modality for the passive or the impatient. Our MRI Technologists are essential to delivering the advanced outpatient imaging our patients and referring physicians depend on. From brain and spine to cardiac and MSK protocols, this role demands that precision, physics knowledge, and people skills all show up at the same time, every time. We are looking for a tech who thrives in a fast-paced but supportive environment, takes MRI safety as seriously as image quality, and brings genuine care to every patient interaction. If you find purpose in high-caliber clinical work, value efficient workflows and advanced technology, and want to grow within a collaborative team that holds itself to a higher standard—this is where you belong.

Responsibilities

  • Operate MRI scanners to produce high-resolution diagnostic images.
  • Select appropriate imaging techniques based on physician orders and patient condition.
  • Evaluate own work before it reaches a radiologist.
  • Apply MRI safety protocols to every patient, scan, and shift.
  • Enforce MRI safety zones (Zone I through Zone IV) without exception.
  • Screen patients thoroughly.
  • Assess contrast contraindications carefully.
  • Monitor patients during procedures.
  • Respond with composure when unexpected situations arise.
  • Maintain proficiency in PACS and imaging software systems.
  • Ensure patient documentation is clean, complete, and current.
  • Manage own workflow.
  • Perform routine quality control checks.
  • Maintain equipment.
  • Adapt to changing protocols or patient needs during scans.
  • Provide full attention to patients, including correct and comfortable positioning.
  • Explain procedures in plain language.
  • Provide genuine calm to patients.
  • Provide compassionate care to a diverse patient population.
  • Mentor new staff and students.
  • Share knowledge and model best practices.

Requirements

  • ARRT-MR or ARMRIT certification required.
  • Valid state licensure current (where required).
  • Hands-on CPR/BLS certified and current.
  • Graduate of an accredited Radiologic or MRI Technology program.
  • 1+ year of experience in a high-volume MRI environment preferred.
  • MRI safety zones and screening protocols second nature.
  • Proficiency in PACS and imaging software systems.
  • Confident in contrast administration and contraindication assessment.
  • Strong communication skills with patients, physicians, and teammates.
  • Calm under pressure and sharp under a deadline.
  • Willingness to mentor staff and students and contribute to a positive clinical culture.
