Make Every Scan Count in One of Texas's Most Electrifying Cities
Austin is a city that defies easy description. It's a place where ambition and authenticity coexist, where the hum of a guitar spills out of a corner bar just a block from a cutting-edge hospital, and where the people who choose to plant roots here tend to stay — because life simply feels richer against this backdrop. If you're a credentialed CT and Radiologic Technologist ready to bring your skills somewhere that truly values them, Austin isn't just a destination. It's a launching pad.
We're actively recruiting a talented and compassionate Imaging Technologist to join a thriving clinical team in Austin, Texas. This is a full-time, on-site role designed for a professional who takes diagnostic imaging seriously — someone who understands that behind every scan is a person waiting for answers, and that the quality of that image can shape everything that comes next.
A Day in the Imaging Suite
No two shifts look exactly alike, and that's part of what makes this work so engaging. You'll move through the day with purpose — positioning patients with precision, calibrating equipment to exact specifications, and executing CT and radiographic protocols that meet the highest standards of diagnostic clarity. You'll interface with radiologists, collaborate across care teams, and be a steady, reassuring presence for patients who may be navigating some of the most stressful moments of their lives.
There's an art to this work that goes beyond the technical. The way you greet a nervous patient. The gentle explanation before a loud scan begins. The quiet professionalism that transforms a sterile room into a space where someone feels genuinely cared for. That's the kind of technologist we're looking for.
Your Core Responsibilities
- Perform CT and radiographic imaging studies following established clinical protocols to produce diagnostic-quality images
- Position patients accurately and adjust technical parameters to ensure optimal image capture
- Work closely with radiologists and attending physicians to support timely and accurate diagnostic interpretation
- Uphold all radiation safety guidelines for patients, visitors, and clinical staff
- Keep meticulous records including imaging logs, equipment checks, and patient documentation
- Foster a calm, respectful, and professional environment throughout each patient encounter
- Contribute to an organized, efficient, and safety-conscious imaging department
Education and Credentials
- Associate's Degree in Radiologic Technology required; Bachelor's Degree preferred
- Graduate of an accredited radiologic technology program
- ARRT certification in Radiography and / or CT required
- Active BLS certification required or must be obtained within 90 days of hire
What You Bring to the Team
- Solid command of CT and diagnostic imaging procedures, safety protocols, and positioning techniques
- Strong interpersonal skills and a patient-first mindset in every interaction
- Confidence working at a fast clip without cutting corners on care or accuracy
- Familiarity with PACS, RIS, and current imaging technologies
- A natural sense of accountability and a high standard for your own work
What This Opportunity Offers You
- Competitive compensation that reflects your expertise and licensure
- Full benefits including medical, dental, and vision coverage
- Paid time off and scheduling structures built to support work-life balance
- On-site continuing education and access to cross-training across modalities
- Clear pathways for advancement within a growing imaging program
- A values-driven team culture where your voice carries real weight
- 100 percent on-site role in a well-equipped, collaborative clinical environment
Why This Role Is More Than a Job
Think about the last time your work truly mattered in a tangible, immediate way. In imaging, that feeling is daily. A child comes in after a fall. A middle-aged man is waiting on results that could change his treatment plan entirely. An elderly woman, nervous and uncertain, needs someone to guide her through a procedure she doesn't fully understand. You are that person. Your technical skill and your human warmth are equally essential — and here, both are recognized.
The imaging team you'd be joining is one of those rare groups where professionalism and camaraderie aren't in competition. They cover for each other. They problem-solve together. They push for better outcomes and higher standards not because they have to, but because that's the kind of people they are. You'd be stepping into a department with pride of ownership, and a leadership structure that actually listens.
Life in Austin: A City That Rewards the Curious
Let's talk about where you'd be living. Austin is a city that has earned its reputation as one of the most livable, vibrant, and opportunity-rich metros in the entire country — and it continues to evolve without losing its soul. The Colorado River winds through the city's heart, flanked by hike-and-bike trails that draw joggers, cyclists, and weekend wanderers in equal measure. The Barton Creek Greenbelt offers swimming holes tucked beneath limestone bluffs, a reminder that nature here is not a destination — it's a neighbor.
The food scene is genuinely world-class, from Franklin Barbecue and its legendary brisket to intimate farm-to-table spots tucked into East Austin neighborhoods where murals stretch across entire building facades. Live music pulses from venues large and small, any night of the week. And the energy of the city — fueled by tech startups, university culture, and a creative class that keeps things interesting — gives Austin a forward-momentum that's impossible to ignore.
For healthcare professionals, this is an especially compelling time to be here. The medical ecosystem in Austin has expanded dramatically over the past decade, drawing top-tier institutions, innovative practices, and talented clinicians from across the country. The healthcare job market is robust, career pathways are wide open, and the professional community is tight-knit without being insular. Texas also offers something else worth mentioning: no state income tax, a cost of living that remains comparatively accessible for a major metro, and an outdoor lifestyle that doesn't require expensive gear or a long drive to enjoy.
The Right Fit for This Role
We're looking for someone who approaches their craft with discipline and delivers it with warmth. You're the kind of technologist who notices when a patient is anxious and adjusts your pace accordingly. You care about image quality not because you're being watched, but because you understand what's at stake. You're adaptable when the day shifts unexpectedly and grounded when things get busy. And you're ready — genuinely ready — to bring your full professional self to a place that will meet you there.
If that sounds like you, we'd love to hear your story.
