Senior Research Software Engineer in Biomedical Image Analysis

We are seeking a full-time Research Software Engineering to join the research
group of Professor Jens Rittscher at the Department of Engineering Science,
Institute of Biomedical Engineering, Headington. The post is funded by the
Wellcome Trust Bioimaging Technology Development Award and is fixed-term until
30 April 2026.





The Research Software Engineer will develop novel algorithms using latest
computer vision and machine learning techniques that will enable the detection
and analysis of tissue architecture components and subtle disease related
changes in images of 3D tissues. You will also implement biomedical image
analysis workflows and oversee data processing. This will involve utilisation
of deep learning methodologies and the processing of complex large datasets.
Here, you will work with other team members to integrate newly developed deep
learning models into image processing pipelines.





You should hold a relevant PhD/DPhil with post-qualification experience in
deep learning and biomedical image analysis. You should also have a strong
interest in cross-disciplinary research and experience in supporting users of
complex software packages. Experience in medical imaging and large-scale data
processing is also essential.





Informal enquiries may be addressed to Jens Rittscher
(jens.rittscher@eng.ox.ac.uk).
