As a Staff Systems Engineer with expertise in plaque, you will be the technical lead for Heartflow's plaque analysis products. Reporting to the Sr. Director of Systems Engineering, you will own the system requirements, architecture, and verification and validation (V&V) strategy for how Heartflow detects, characterizes, and quantifies coronary plaque. You will set the standard for plaque measurement accuracy and the ground truth we validate against. Plaque is where coronary artery disease begins, and your work will define how the future of this disease is caught and managed.
