Four Days Off. MRI Cases That Keep You Growing.
Imagine finishing your Saturday shift knowing your next scheduled workday isn't until Thursday morning.
Four consecutive days to spend with family, take road trips, explore Oregon, recover after a busy week, or simply enjoy life outside of healthcare. Full-time MRI opportunities with this kind of schedule don't appear often, especially in a hospital where the work remains challenging, interesting, and professionally rewarding.
At PeaceHealth Sacred Heart Medical Center RiverBend in Springfield, Oregon, your days won't be filled with the same routine outpatient studies over and over. As a regional referral center, Level II Trauma Center, and Comprehensive Stroke Center, you'll care for patients whose imaging truly influences urgent clinical decisions. One moment you're performing routine exams, the next you're helping support complex neuro, stroke, oncology, trauma, cardiac, pediatric anesthesia, or implanted device imaging.
This is the kind of MRI role many technologists hope to find: advanced clinical work, highly respected colleagues, no routine call requirement, and a schedule that gives you four days off every week.
What the Day Feels Like
You arrive knowing the day's schedule could take you almost anywhere.
The morning might begin with a stroke patient requiring urgent neuroimaging. Later, you're scanning a cardiac patient, supporting anesthesia for a pediatric case, or helping evaluate a complex oncology diagnosis. Every shift brings variety because RiverBend serves as a referral destination for patients across the region.
You'll work with two Siemens scanners, including both a 1.5T and a 3T system. Across both magnets, the team averages about 29 patients daily, creating a pace that stays engaging while still allowing technologists to focus on quality and patient care.
Because this department supports primarily emergency and inpatient imaging, the work feels meaningful. You're not simply producing images. You're helping physicians make critical decisions during some of the most important moments in a patient's healthcare journey.
Why You'll Love This Role
- Four days off every week while maintaining a full-time benefited position.
- No routine call requirement, with occasional volunteer opportunities available if desired.
- Clinical variety that keeps MRI interesting, including neuro, stroke, trauma, oncology, cardiac, pediatric anesthesia, implanted devices, emergency, inpatient, and outpatient studies.
- Work with Siemens 1.5T and 3T MRI systems in a highly respected regional medical center.
- Build your career within a Person-First, value-driven healthcare organization that strives to care for caregivers with the same commitment shown to patients.
Who Thrives Here
- Enjoys solving clinical puzzles rather than performing the same exams every day.
- Appreciates autonomy and likes being trusted to think critically.
- Finds satisfaction in helping care teams answer important diagnostic questions.
- Values work-life balance just as much as professional growth.
- Wants to be part of a culture that treats colleagues with respect, kindness, and professionalism.
Why You'll Love Living Here
Springfield and nearby Eugene offer something increasingly difficult to find: room to breathe.
Your four-day weekends can include hiking, cycling, fishing, mountain adventures, local wineries, college athletics, live music, or simply enjoying a lower-stress lifestyle than many larger metropolitan areas. You'll have easy access to the Oregon Coast, Cascade Mountains, and countless outdoor destinations without sacrificing access to quality healthcare, culture, restaurants, and everyday conveniences.
It's the kind of place where work remains important, but life doesn't revolve around it.

MRI Technologist Jobs in Oregon: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a mri technologist in Oregon?
To work as an mri technologist in Oregon, you must hold a valid Medical Imaging Technologist license issued by the Oregon Health Authority. This requires completing an accredited radiologic technology or MRI program and passing the ARRT examination in MR or a related pathway. Oregon requires license renewal on a biennial basis and ongoing continuing education. Most Oregon employers also expect ARRT (MR) certification before hire.
How much do MRI technologists make in Oregon?
MRI technologists in Oregon earn a median of about $121,920 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $99,110 for the lowest 10% to over $131,680 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire mri technologists in Oregon?
Employers hiring mri technologists in Oregon right now include Providence, PeaceHealth, and American Traveler, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of October 2026. Oregon's larger integrated health systems tend to offer the most consistent openings, with positions across both flagship medical centers and their regional outpatient imaging affiliates.
Which Oregon cities have the most mri technologist jobs?
Portland, Oregon, and Corvallis have the most mri technologist openings in Oregon. Portland leads because it anchors Oregon Health and Science University, Providence, and Legacy Health, while Salem and Eugene reflect the clinical infrastructure supporting the state's second and third largest population centers, including regional hospital systems and affiliated imaging networks.
Are there remote mri technologist jobs in Oregon?
Yes, but they're rare. MRI technology is an entirely hands-on clinical role requiring direct patient contact and in-person equipment operation, so remote work is not a realistic option for most positions. About 0% of mri technologist openings tied to Oregon are remote or hybrid as of October 2026, and those few exceptions typically involve teleradiology support, training coordination, or administrative imaging roles adjacent to the technologist function.
How can I get hired as a mri technologist in Oregon with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is applying directly to new-graduate or trainee MRI technologist roles posted by Oregon's large hospital systems, particularly Oregon Health and Science University and Providence Health, which periodically run structured orientation programs for candidates completing accredited programs. Holding ARRT eligibility or a newly awarded ARRT (MR) credential gives a strong advantage at application. Candidates transitioning from adjacent roles like radiologic technologist or CT technologist can also move laterally, since cross-training into MRI is common within Oregon's integrated systems.
Where can I find and apply to mri technologist jobs in Oregon?
You can find and apply to mri technologist jobs in Oregon on Migrate Mate, which lists current Oregon openings updated regularly. Search the listings to find roles that match your credentials, experience level, and preferred location, then apply directly to the ones that fit.
