Engineering Team Lead

Engineering Team Lead Location: Remote (US or Canada) Type: Full-time Our Mission Ezra’s mission is to detect cancer early for everyone in the world. Our AI-powered Full Body MRI screens for cancer in up to 13 organs and is available at over 100+ imaging facilities in 30+ cities across the US. We believe in empowering people to make their own health decisions, offering Ezra as a direct-to-consumer service. Members visit our partner imaging centers for a Full Body MRI and receive an AI-powered report from an Ezra Medical Provider within 7–10 days. The Ezra radiology reports are generated by our partner radiologists, using Ezra-approved radiology templates. These radiology reports are then converted into consumer-friendly reports using Ezra Reporter, an AI trained to convert radiology reports into plain English.
