Key Accountabilities
- Lead the design and implementation of scalable, standards-based neuroimaging data systems and architecture, including integration with high-performance computing environments to support advanced analytics and large-scale processing.
- Oversee end-to-end workflows for imaging data ingestion, quality control, de-identification, metadata harmonization, and integration with centralized data lakes.
- Manage imaging infrastructure tools and platforms (e.g., XNAT, Flywheel, PACS connectors) to support multimodal research initiatives.
- Supervise and mentor imaging informatics staff, supporting a high-performance and learning-oriented team culture.
- Collaborate with researchers, IT, privacy, and governance teams to ensure compliance with institutional policies and legal frameworks (e.g., PHIPA, GDPR, REB).
- Monitor emerging technologies and standards in imaging informatics, and evaluate their feasibility for adoption.
- Represent CAMH in cross-institutional data-sharing networks and national imaging infrastructure collaborations.
- Contribute to budget planning, resource allocation, vendor management, and infrastructure procurement for imaging-related needs.
- Promote FAIR data practices, reproducibility, and machine-learning readiness across imaging workflows.
Job Requirements
- Master’s or Ph.D. in Medical Physics, Biomedical Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field.
- Minimum 5–10 years of experience in medical imaging data management, including deep expertise in MRI workflows.
- At least 3 years of experience in a supervisory or leadership role.
- Advanced knowledge of imaging data standards and tools (e.g., DICOM, BIDS, de-identification frameworks, QC pipelines).
- Hands-on experience with platforms such as XNAT, Flywheel, or commercial PACS systems.
- Proficiency in SQL, Python, and imaging software (e.g., FSL, ANTs, SPM).
- Understanding of data architecture, privacy regulations, open science frameworks, semantic technologies, and high-performance computing environments
- Experience navigating hospital and research environments, preferably in neuroscience or mental health.
- Certifications such as CIIP, CDMP, PMP/PRINCE2, or TOGAF are considered assets.
- Bilingualism in French and English is considered an asset.
