Likely interview questions for this role
Written from this job description, not a generic list. Each one notes what the interviewer is really checking.
About your past
Tell me about a time you wrote requirements for a system performance parameter. How did you decide what the number should be?
What they are checking: Whether they can turn clinical and technical needs into testable requirements that hold up.
Describe a technical design review you led or contributed to where you raised a risk others had missed.
What they are checking: Whether they will speak up about technical risk in front of a cross-functional group.
How do you work with scientists, product managers and field teams who each define success differently?
What they are checking: Whether they can align a broad cross-functional team around a shared technical goal.
Tell me about a design improvement you drove that changed a product's architecture. How did you get people to agree to it?
What they are checking: Whether they can move a significant change through an organization using evidence and persuasion.
What would you do
A clinical applications specialist says radiologists don't like how a new feature looks, but your metrics say it's better. What do you do?
What they are checking: Whether they respect clinical judgment and can reconcile it with objective measures rather than dismiss either.
About the work
Walk me through how you would evaluate an image quality issue on a CT system when you aren't yet sure which subsystem is causing it.
What they are checking: Whether they can reason at the system level about subsystem interactions instead of blaming one component.
How do you think about the trade-off between image quality and patient dose when tuning a new feature?
What they are checking: Whether they understand the central tension in CT design and can reason about it clearly.
How would you build a method to quantify how one subsystem affects overall image quality?
What they are checking: Whether they can design measurements and analyses, not just interpret ones that already exist.
What role does calibration play in CT image quality, and what can go wrong if it drifts?
What they are checking: Whether they understand calibration as a core part of system performance and safety.
What analysis tools or programming languages do you use to process image or signal data?
What they are checking: Whether they have practical skills to evaluate image quality data, not only theory.
