Join us in pioneering breakthroughs in healthcare. For everyone. Everywhere. Sustainably.
Our inspiring and caring environment forms a global community that celebrates diversity and individuality. We encourage you to step beyond your comfort zone, offering resources and flexibility to foster your professional and personal growth, all while valuing your unique contributions.
Join Siemens Healthineers’ Digital Technology & Innovation (DTI) team in Princeton, NJ, a central hub for advancing Artificial Intelligence and Digital Technologies in healthcare.
As an AI/ML Scientist within our Neuroclinical AI team, you will develop AI algorithms and models that power image-guided neurovascular interventions, from procedure planning through real-time navigation in the angiography suite. Our primary clinical focus is acute ischemic stroke and intracranial aneurysm treatment, with other neurointerventional procedures also in scope.
You will work closely with clinical collaborators, imaging scientists, and product development teams to translate interventional workflow needs into robust, real-time AI solutions, spanning model development, validation, and deployment in a regulated medical device environment.
You are responsible for:
- Developing AI algorithms for real-time detection and tracking of interventional devices (e.g., guidewires, microcatheters, stent retrievers, coils, and flow diverters) in live fluoroscopy and angiography sequences
- Developing 2D/3D fusion and registration methods that bring pre-procedural and intra-procedural 3D imaging (e.g., CTA, MRA, 3D rotational angiography) and planning primitives such as vessel centerlines, aneurysm geometry, and target landmarks into the live 2D angiographic view
- Building foundation models for interventional and neurovascular imaging, and distilling them into compact, efficient models that meet real-time latency requirements on clinical hardware
- Building interventional digital twins and simulators of neurovascular anatomy, device behavior, and X-ray image formation for use in synthetic data generation and in training and evaluating device navigation agents
- Translating clinical requirements for neurointerventional workflows into appropriate data, annotation, and model performance requirements
- Performing validation and statistical evaluation of AI algorithms, including accuracy, robustness, and latency under realistic procedural conditions
- Coordinating activities across data collection, data annotation, model development, and validation throughout the project lifecycle, often across multiple concurrent projects
- Contributing to IP generation and peer-reviewed research in collaboration with clinical and technical stakeholders
- Proposing and driving new AI/ML-based initiatives in image-guided neurointervention
- Staying abreast of developments in the field and maintaining knowledge of state-of-the-art technologies and high-performance computing architectures
Minimum Qualifications:
- MS or PhD in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, Robotics, or related field
- 2–5 years of experience in AI/ML development (industry or academic)
- Hands-on experience with Python, PyTorch or TensorFlow
- Experience developing and validating machine learning models for medical imaging or computer vision applications
- Strong problem-solving and analytical thinking skills
- Ability to clearly communicate technical concepts to both technical and clinical audiences
Preferred Qualifications:
- Experience with X-ray fluoroscopy, angiography, or cone-beam CT imaging, ideally in neurovascular or other interventional applications
- Experience with real-time object detection, segmentation, or tracking, particularly of thin or low-contrast structures in image sequences
- Experience with 2D/3D registration, multimodal image fusion, or 3D vascular modeling (e.g., vessel segmentation, centerline extraction)
- Experience with large-scale self-supervised pretraining or foundation models, and with efficient deployment techniques such as knowledge distillation, quantization, and optimized inference (e.g., TensorRT, ONNX)
- Experience with simulation, digital twins, or synthetic data generation (e.g., digitally reconstructed radiographs, physics-based device or blood-flow simulation)
- Experience with reinforcement learning, imitation learning, or robotic navigation, especially for autonomous or assisted catheter and guidewire navigation
- Familiarity with stroke and aneurysm procedures such as mechanical thrombectomy, endovascular coiling, and flow diversion
- Publications in venues such as MICCAI, IPCAI, IEEE TMI, Medical Image Analysis, CVPR, or NeurIPS

There is no state-issued license for this occupation in New Jersey. Hiring in the state, particularly in Princeton's pharmaceutical corridor and Newark's financial technology sector, emphasizes published research, a strong portfolio of applied ML projects, and demonstrated expertise in areas like NLP or computer vision.
How much do artificial intelligence scientists make in New Jersey?
Artificial intelligence scientists in New Jersey earn a median of about $140,840 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $85,780 for the lowest 10% to over $209,850 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire artificial intelligence scientists in New Jersey?
Employers hiring artificial intelligence scientists in New Jersey right now include JPMorganChase, Siemens Healthineers, and Novartis, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. New Jersey's concentration of pharmaceutical headquarters, global financial firms, and defense contractors makes it one of the more diverse hiring markets for this role in the Mid-Atlantic region.
Which New Jersey cities have the most artificial intelligence scientist jobs?
Jersey City, Princeton, and New Jersey have the most artificial intelligence scientist openings in New Jersey. Princeton draws heavily from its pharmaceutical and research institution presence, while Newark benefits from proximity to major financial and tech employers, and Parsippany serves as a hub for several large corporate headquarters with active AI research teams.
Are there remote artificial intelligence scientist jobs in New Jersey?
Yes, and more than most fields. About 60% of artificial intelligence scientist openings tied to New Jersey are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting how much of the work centers on modeling, research, and code rather than physical presence. Roles focused on research, model development, and data analysis tend to offer the most remote flexibility, while positions requiring lab access or close collaboration with hardware teams are more likely to be on-site.
