Your opportunity

\n

By joining the Kardium team, you can help make a difference in the lives of millions around the world. Kardium is developing a ground breaking medical device for the minimally-invasive diagnosis and treatment of atrial fibrillation, a heart condition that can cause strokes, heart failure, and other heart-related complications.

\n

Kardium has a fantastic technical team that has developed a product with strong, unique and customer-valued differentiators versus other solutions on the market: The Globe® Pulsed Field System. We have built connections with key opinion leaders who are already using the Globe System and are helping to tell our story.

\n

­As our Biomedical Algorithms Engineer, you will join Kardium’s Cardiac Mapping team in designing, developing, and evaluating algorithms to turn raw data into actionable information for physicians. You will support the development of 3-dimensional maps used by electrophysiologists during cardiac ablation procedures, using a wealth of electrical, anatomical, and spatial information as inputs. You would have the opportunity to bring your creative and innovative ideas to help Kardium achieve its goal of helping improve people’s lives.

\n

What you’ll be doing

\n

Your responsibilities will include:

\n

\n
• Apply scientific investigation methods to drive product innovations in mapping and navigation algorithms
\n
• Design, implement and evaluate algorithmic approaches to meet clinical needs related to navigation, electrophysiology, and ablation
\n
• Systematically analyze large multivariate data sets of electrophysiological, anatomical, spatial, and procedural data
\n
• internal software tools for large multivariate data sets of electrophysiological, anatomical, spatial, and procedural data
\n
• Act as an independent problem-solver, finding ways to connect customer-facing deliverables to appropriate technical problem statements and solutions
\n
• Design experiments to evaluate the performance of new algorithms
\n
• Supplement algorithmic analysis with occasional hands-on, benchtop data collection
\n
• Advance Kardium’s intellectual property by contributing to our patent portfolio
\n
• Communicate experiments, analyses and results to teammates and senior leadership
\n

  \n
  • Three-dimensional tracking/navigation, point clouds or computational geometry
  \n
  • Machine learning (e.g. regression, classification, clustering, dimensionality reduction) and/or optimization
  \n
  • Multivariate statistics
  \n
  • Image processing, medical imaging, or computer vision
  \n
  \n
\n
• Effective written and verbal communication of technical subject matter
\n
• Knowledge of cardiac electrophysiology is an asset
