We are looking for a highly qualified Electroencephalography Technologist to join our healthcare team and support the delivery of essential neurophysiological examinations used in the diagnosis and monitoring of patients. This professional will be responsible for performing electroencephalography procedures with technical accuracy, adherence to clinical protocols, and a strong focus on patient safety, comfort, and overall care experience. The role requires solid knowledge of EEG equipment, patient preparation, electrode placement, brain signal monitoring, and recognition of artifacts that may affect test quality.
The Electroencephalography Technologist will work closely with neurologists, sleep medicine physicians, nurses, and other healthcare professionals to ensure that examinations are conducted efficiently and in compliance with technical and regulatory standards. Core duties include welcoming patients, explaining the procedure, collecting relevant clinical information, preparing the scalp, correctly applying electrodes, and continuously monitoring signal acquisition throughout the exam. The professional will also be expected to document important clinical observations, maintain accurate records, and ensure the integrity of collected data.
In addition to technical execution, this position requires strong organizational skills, clear communication, and sensitivity when working with diverse patient populations, including children, older adults, and individuals with complex neurological conditions. The professional should be prepared to handle routine EEG studies, prolonged monitoring, sleep-related studies, and procedures performed in hospital, outpatient, or laboratory settings. Familiarity with biosafety standards, infection control practices, and basic equipment maintenance is essential for success in this role.
We are seeking someone committed to clinical excellence, continuous learning, and effective collaboration in a dynamic multidisciplinary environment. The ideal candidate demonstrates attention to detail, technical reasoning, ethical conduct, and the ability to respond appropriately to clinical situations requiring speed and precision. Previous experience in neurodiagnostics will be highly valued, as will knowledge of digital systems for exam recording, review, and storage.
This is an excellent opportunity for professionals who want to build a career in clinical neurophysiology while contributing directly to more accurate diagnoses and improved patient care outcomes. If you are passionate about healthcare, possess strong technical expertise in electroencephalography, and want to work with a team dedicated to high clinical standards, this position may be the right fit for you.
