PACS Implementation Specialist (Contract)

About Us

At Prenuvo, we are on a mission to flip the paradigm from reactive “sick-care” to proactive health care. Our award-winning whole body scan is fast (under 1 hour), safe (MRI has no ionizing radiation), and non-invasive (no contrast). Our unique integrated stack of optimized hardware, software, and increasingly AI, coupled with the patient-centric experience across our domestic and global clinics, have allowed us to lead the change against “we caught it too late again".

We’re looking for a PACS Implementation Specialist (Contract) with a strong background in software development and imaging informatics to lead the deployment and integration of advanced PACS, RIS, and related systems in healthcare environments. You’ll work at the intersection of clinical workflows, imaging data standards, and custom IT solutions—ensuring seamless interoperability and performance in mission-critical healthcare systems.

Please note that this is a contract role with the potential to transition into a full-time position, depending on performance and business needs.

Help reshape the world through proactive healthcare while working with cutting-edge technology and high performing teams with deep expertise - join us to make a difference in people’s lives!
