Why this is worth applying to

Worth applying for echocardiographers or imaging-trained clinicians who want a clinical research core lab pathway with GCP exposure and MedTech trial work. Less suitable for clinicians without echo accreditation or cardiac imaging experience.

Who should apply

Cardiac sonographers, echocardiographers, allied health professionals with TTE image-analysis experience, and RN/PA/Pharmacist clinicians who also hold formal echocardiography accreditation and meet the 2-year echo experience recommendation.

CV angle

Frame real echocardiography acquisition and analysis experience with concrete modalities, quantification workflows, and software used. Highlight GCP, SOP compliance, clinical documentation, quality/regulatory awareness, multidisciplinary collaboration, and any UAT or manual-development exposure without overstating non-clinical experience.

Skills to highlight

  • Transthoracic echocardiography analysis
  • Echocardiogram quantification and measurement
  • GCP and regulatory documentation
  • SOP compliance
  • Clinical trial core lab operations
  • Philips Ultrasound Workspace or TomTec
  • User Acceptance Testing (UAT)
  • Multidisciplinary communication

Role summary

A core laboratory research associate role focused on reviewing, quantifying, and measuring echocardiograms for clinical research and MedTech studies, with documentation and GCP/SOP compliance responsibilities.
