Capture What Matters Most in One of America's Most Iconic Cities

There are cities that hum with ambition, and then there is Chicago — a place that roars with it. From the steel-and-glass towers that define the skyline to the deep-dish debates that divide neighborhoods with friendly passion, this is a city that takes everything seriously, including its healthcare. If you are a credentialed Radiologic Technologist with CT experience and a drive to do work that genuinely counts, Chicago is calling — and this opportunity is the answer.

This is not a role where you clock in, point a machine, and go home. This is a position built for someone who understands that behind every image is a person. A father waiting for answers. A teenager nervous about her first scan. A retiree hoping for good news. Your hands guide the process. Your voice steadies the room. Your expertise makes the diagnosis possible. That is the weight of this work — and it is also the reward.

What Your Day-to-Day Will Look Like

• Perform CT and radiographic imaging procedures with a commitment to diagnostic quality and patient safety
• Partner closely with radiologists and clinical staff to ensure imaging findings are accurate and actionable
• Position patients carefully and calibrate equipment to produce optimal, interpretation-ready images
• Uphold strict radiation protection protocols for patients, visitors, and colleagues alike
• Maintain thorough documentation including imaging records and routine equipment maintenance logs
• Deliver compassionate, patient-centered care at every stage of the imaging encounter
• Support a clean, organized, and high-functioning imaging suite that the whole team can rely on

Education You Will Need

• Associate's Degree in Radiologic Technology required; a Bachelor's Degree is a welcomed bonus
• Graduate of an accredited radiologic technology program

Certifications Required

• Active ARRT certification in CT and / or Radiography
• Current BLS certification or the ability to obtain within 90 days of your start date

The Skills That Will Set You Apart

• Solid command of diagnostic imaging protocols and radiation safety standards
• Clear, empathetic communication with patients and multidisciplinary clinical teams
• Composure and adaptability in a high-volume, fast-moving environment
• A detail-driven mindset paired with a genuine sense of professional accountability
• Hands-on fluency with PACS, RIS, and current imaging technology platforms

What This Role Offers You

• A comprehensive benefits package covering medical, dental, and vision needs
• Generous paid time off paired with scheduling options that support real work-life balance
• On-site continuing education and modality cross-training opportunities
• Clear pathways for career advancement within imaging and beyond
• A team culture rooted in values, shared goals, and genuine respect
• A fully on-site clinical role inside a collaborative and well-resourced department

The Human Side of the Scan

Ask any great imaging tech what they love most about the job, and they will rarely lead with the equipment. They will tell you about the patient who smiled for the first time during a difficult week because someone took a moment to explain what was happening. They will tell you about the scan that caught something early. They will tell you about the radiologist who leaned over and said, "Nice image." These are the small moments that make this work enormous.

In this role, you will be that person. The one who sets the tone for the room. The one who moves with confidence but never loses warmth. The one who the care team depends on and patients quietly thank with their eyes. And you will have a crew behind you that operates the same way — technically sharp, genuinely kind, and deeply invested in getting it right every time.

Life in Chicago: Big Energy, Real Roots

Living in Chicago is not like living anywhere else. The city moves with a particular energy — unapologetic, layered, alive. On any given weekend you might walk through the Art Institute, catch a concert at Millennium Park, explore the Fulton Market dining scene, or take a bike ride along the Lakefront Trail with Lake Michigan stretching endlessly to your right. In the summer, the city feels like a celebration that never quite ends. In the winter, it builds a kind of camaraderie that only Chicagoans understand.

But peel back the postcard and you will find the neighborhoods — Wicker Park, Logan Square, Andersonville, Beverly, Hyde Park — each with its own character, its own coffee shop legends, its own unwritten rules and deeply loyal residents. This is a city where people put down roots. Where the corner bar knows your order, the neighbors wave from the stoop, and the farmers market on Saturday morning feels like a small reunion every single week.

The healthcare ecosystem here is among the strongest in the nation, with world-renowned medical institutions and a culture of clinical innovation that continues to draw top professionals from across the country. Coming to Chicago means stepping into a system that takes medical imaging seriously — and that invests in the people who make it work.

The Team You Will Grow With

This imaging department runs on trust and transparency. You will be joining professionals who have been doing this long enough to know that the best departments are built on relationships — between techs, between techs and radiologists, and between everyone and the patient. Here, your opinion is not just tolerated. It is sought out. Whether you are flagging a process that could run smoother or orienting a newer colleague, you will have a meaningful voice in how this team operates.

Leadership here listens. Growth here is real. And the standard of care is one the whole department works hard to protect together.

Is This You?

You are someone who brings both precision and humanity into every room you enter. You know that a great scan starts before the patient even lies down on the table — it starts with how you greet them, how you explain the process, how you make the unfamiliar feel manageable. You carry your ARRT credentials with pride and your patient instincts with even more.

You are not looking for just any job. You are looking for the right one. One where your skills are put to genuine use, your growth is supported, and your work leaves something real behind every single day.

Make Your Mark Here

Chicago is ready for someone like you. A city this alive deserves healthcare professionals who match its energy — driven, compassionate, and committed to excellence. If you are ready to bring your imaging expertise to one of the great American cities, and to a team that will challenge and champion you in equal measure, we want to hear from you.
