In addition to clinical service, there is both opportunity and expectation for academic work, including education, investigation/research and administration, as well as advocacy. There will be reserved time for these efforts with a well-established support structure, expected benchmarks, and both breadth and depth in mentoring available within the Division.
Qualified candidates must be Board Eligible/Board Certified in Pediatric Cardiology, with focused training and expertise in echocardiography. This includes fourth-year trained physicians, graduates of a three-year fellowship with demonstrable interest and skill in the performance and interpretation of transthoracic echocardiography, or general cardiologists remote from training with significant exposure and experience with transthoracic echocardiography. The selected candidate will receive a faculty appointment in the Department of Pediatrics on the Clinical or Tenure Track at the academic level commensurate with experience and qualifications. Leadership opportunities are available for qualified candidates.
The Department and University offers a competitive salary and an exceptional benefits program including non-contributory retirement contributions of 20.2% of annual salary that vest immediately.

Senior Level Pediatric Cardiologist Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a senior level pediatric cardiologist job?
Employers at this level look for demonstrated subspecialty depth, whether in interventional procedures, electrophysiology, heart failure, or fetal cardiology, alongside a record of program development or quality improvement leadership. Candidates who have supervised fellows, contributed to clinical research, or built referral relationships across a health system consistently stand out. Board certification and an active state license are baseline expectations, not differentiators.
Which companies hire senior level pediatric cardiologists?
Companies hiring senior level pediatric cardiologists right now include Phoenix Children's, University of Utah, and Northwestern University, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of October 2026. Hiring at this level comes primarily from large academic medical centers, free-standing children's hospitals, and multispecialty health systems that run dedicated pediatric cardiology divisions with fellowship training programs.
Are there remote senior level pediatric cardiologist jobs?
Yes, though the majority of roles require on-site clinical presence. About 0% of senior level pediatric cardiologist openings are remote or hybrid as of October 2026, and these positions tend to focus on telehealth consultations, second-opinion cardiology services, or administrative and medical director functions rather than hands-on procedural or inpatient care.
What makes a pediatric cardiologist role senior level?
Senior level roles are defined by ownership of clinical programs, complex independent case management, and responsibility for others, whether that means supervising fellows, mentoring junior attendings, or leading a subspecialty service line. Physicians at this stage are expected to set clinical standards, drive quality initiatives, and contribute meaningfully to teaching, research, or operational decision-making rather than executing under direct supervision.
Which industries hire the most senior level pediatric cardiologists?
Senior Level pediatric cardiologist roles concentrate in Education, Science & Research, and Healthcare & Medical Services, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of October 2026. These sectors drive hiring at this level because they operate high-volume pediatric programs, run accredited fellowship training, and require physicians with the subspecialty expertise and leadership capacity to sustain complex congenital and structural heart disease services.
