You’ll report directly to the CEO and work closely with the Director of Product and other leadership team members.

This role combines technical leadership with operational oversight. You bring deep technical expertise, a strategic mindset, and (at least basic) knowledge of radiology workflows. You thrive in a fast-paced environment and are passionate about building real-world products that make a clinical impact.

YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Own and evolve the technology roadmap, balancing innovation, scalability, and technical debt.
  • Set and manage clear goals (e.g., OKRs) to guide engineering and ML efforts effectively.
  • Keep up with trends in ML, software, and healthcare IT to inform long-term strategy.
  • Represent technical direction and milestones to external stakeholders (e.g., partners, investors).
OPERATIONS
  • Oversee implementation of tools, workflows, and best practices for software and ML development.
  • Ensure software quality, security, and compliance with regulatory requirements (e.g., MDR, FDA).
  • Ensure efficient development cycles, high software quality, and minimized technical debt and security risks
  • Manage selected external collaborations and workflow integrations in the clinical ecosystem.
YOUR BACKGROUND
We’re looking for a leader who combines technical excellence with strong communication and team leadership skills.

MANDATORY SKILLS
  • 3+ years of experience applying machine learning to imaging data, with a strong software development background.
  • 2+ years of leadership experience in building and managing technical teams in a fast-paced or growth-stage environment.
  • Proven track record of delivering high-quality, production-ready ML/AI products.
  • Proficiency in agile workflows and managing projects with measurable outcomes.
  • Strong communication skills, including moderation, conflict resolution, and cross-functional collaboration.
  • Strategic thinking,resilience under pressure and being able to focus teams on what matters.
  • Scientific mindset and experience with research evaluation or publication in AI/ML.
DESIRED SKILLS
  • PhD or advanced degree in machine learning, computer science, or a related field.
  • Hands-on experience with Python and cloud infrastructure.
  • Familiarity with radiology workflows, medical imaging (e.g., DICOM), or healthcare IT standards.
  • Experience with regulatory frameworks (MDR, FDA) and quality systems (e.g., ISO 13485).
  • Experience mentoring engineers and supporting career growth across different levels.
  • Experience with large language models (LLMs), including fine-tuning or integration into products, is a strong plus.
WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT
  • Focus on what matters: At our company, competence, personality, and commitment are more important than formalities or the study program you chose.
  • Your Impact: Your work helps make disease diagnosis faster, more precise, and more manageable.
  • Your Team: Join a highly motivated, interdisciplinary team with fast decision-making processes and a collaborative atmosphere.
  • Freedom to choose: Work remotely or from our office in Berlin-Kreuzberg—whatever suits you best.
  • Benefits: Use your personal benefits budget flexibly and choose the perks that suit you best!
About us
mediaire was founded in 2018 by Dr. Andreas Lemke and Dr. Jörg Döpfert – both physicists with a background in MRI physics. The real founding history, however, dates back to 2009 when the scientific paths of Andreas and Jörg crossed several times with the renowned radiologist Prof. Henrik Michaely. Coming from different backgrounds and discovering that each had the same goal, the idea of a scientifically and economically successful high-tech product took shape – a software powered by artificial intelligence (AI) that allows highly efficient analysis of medical imaging data in Radiology to support radiologists in their daily routine.
