Job Description Summary

The Technology & Innovation Center (HTIC) is GE HealthCare’s global innovation engine, operating through two major hubs (Niskayuna, NY, USA & Bangalore, India) with a highly specialized, multidisciplinary team spanning imaging physics, microelectronics, AI, biosciences, magnetics, robotics, materials science, and advanced system engineering. HTIC’s purpose is to drive disruptive innovation that delivers step‑change performance improvements in current platforms while pioneering next‑generation and cross‑segment technologies that lead to new business opportunities. HTIC also proposes and wins external grant awards, typically from the US government (NIH, BARDA, ARPA‑H, etc.). The organization’s redefined operating model, culture, and governance are enabling greater agility, stronger clinical and segment partnerships, and the acceleration of disruptive solutions that position GE HealthCare to drive the future of healthcare.
As the Senior Technology Director of the Electrical Systems and Radiation Detection team, you will lead a team of mixed-signal ASIC designers, power electronic engineers, and detector physicists enabling advanced healthcare applications in CT, MR, PET, and Ultrasound. This role is based in HTIC and has global impact across many of the GEHC Segments. This role defines and executes long‑term technology and solution roadmaps spanning mixed signal ASICs, Power Electronics and Radiation Detection. As a recognized expert and thought leader, the director will guide the advancement of these technologies that improve patient outcomes, develop new capabilities, and create new sources of enterprise value.
Operating across GE HealthCare segments and collaborating with Segment teams in AVS, Imaging and PCS, the role drives innovation from early research through translational impact. Success is measured by the development of high‑value, high performance electronic designs, strong external partnerships and funding wins, and the creation of scalable foundation technologies that strengthen GEHC's leadership across its hardware product lines.
