Accelerator Physicist

View Ray Systems, Inc. is a technology company seeking to provide the global radiation therapy community with advanced medical instruments incorporating the most capable and highest level of technology possible. Our belief is that only significant technological innovation can enable society to conquer disease. Our mission is to dare to change the paradigms of medicine and solve “impossible” technical problems to enable clinicians to effect a cure to save precious human lives, mitigate pain and suffering, and enhance quality of life.

Our vision is to become the world’s leader in producing highly-effective innovative technology to cure cancer.

View Ray Systems designs, manufactures, and markets the MRIdian A3i® radiation therapy system. The MRIdian A3i system is designed to treat patients with the smallest radiation therapy margins available[i] with the highest patient throughput demonstrated for the most complicated cases[ii]

The MRIdian A3i system treats by aligning the sharpest radiation therapy beam on the market to diagnostic quality magnetic resonance images (MRIs) of the patient, adapts the treatment plan to the reality of the patient, and then uses the real-time MRIs to control the beam and record real-time doses delivered to the patient.

If you are driven by a passion for innovation and want to be part of a team that is changing the world, we invite you to explore the opportunities available at View Ray Systems.

We are seeking an experienced accelerator physicist to independently guide research and development of all aspects of our MRI guided radiation therapy systems. The ideal candidate should have an extensive background in the theory and practice of accelerator physics with significant expertise in the development and implementation of particle accelerator systems. Experience with linear accelerators, high-power RF systems, and radiation physics is also highly desired.

The primary responsibilities are working with the View Ray Systems, Inc. Research & Development teams to drive new product offerings and product improvements. In addition, it is expected that the accelerator physics scientist will mentor other employees to gain a better understanding of accelerator technologies. If you are an established leader in the medical physics community and are ready to contribute at a new level, this position was made for you.

• Ph.D. in Physics, Imaging Physics, Applied Math, Engineering, or related field.
• Minimum of 3 years experience in accelerator development
• Experience in both modeling and prototyping of accelerator systems

• Postgraduate experience in accelerator physics research and development
• Experience with high-power RF systems
  
  Experience with accelerator control systems
• Record of a distinguished academic record, i.e., peer reviewed publications and grant funding
• Experience in radiation therapy research or clinical applications

We offer competitive benefits, including:

• Health, dental, and vision insurance
• Paid time off and flexible schedule
• Office stocked with snacks, drinks, and occasional catered meals
