Scientist - Hospital Patient Monitoring
Job Title
Scientist \- Hospital Patient Monitoring
Job Description
Philips Hospital Patient Monitoring (HPM) develops solutions that help caregivers monitor patients reliably and continuously, enabling timely clinical decisions and safer care. At HPM Research , we conduct applied scientific research on smart monitoring and measurement solutions, driven by deep customer insights and unmet clinical needs. We do this in close collaboration with clinical stakeholders.
Your role:
You will be part of the HPM Research team, working on innovative solutions. In this role, you will create and validate novel algorithms for next\-generation smart monitoring and measurements, turning physiological data into reliable metrics and algorithms that can be translated into meaningful monitoring features.
You will
- Analyze physiological time\-series signals (filtering, artifact detection, signal quality, and feature extraction).
- Develop, implement, and test novel algorithms (from prototype to reusable code).
- Set up data\-collection studies, and curate datasets for analysis.
- Define datasets and experiments: inclusion/exclusion criteria, labels/ground truth, and basic data preprocessing steps.
- Validate algorithm performance with agreed metrics (e.g., sensitivity/specificity, false alarm rate) and analyze failure modes and edge cases.
- Document methods and results (short reports/slides) and clearly state conclusions, assumptions, and limitations.
- Collaborate with scientists, engineers, and clinical stakeholders to translate findings into algorithms.
- You have a Master or PhD in Biomedical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Applied Physics, Computer Science, or equivalent experience, with a biomedical/biophysical focus.
- You have strong experience in (time\-series) physiological signal processing and analysis.
- You are comfortable with data analysis, algorithm development, (bio)statistics, and applied machine learning.
- You have strong coding skills in Python or MATLAB; Python is preferred.
- You have an interest in human physiology and how physiological systems translate into measurable signals.
- You can translate questions into a clear analysis plan and validate your results (assumptions, limitations, reproducibility).
- You communicate clearly—writing concise summaries and presenting findings to engineers, clinicians, or product stakeholders.
- You enjoy collaborating in a multidisciplinary team and asking for feedback early.
- You think end\-to\-end: from clinical need to research question to data collection, preprocessing, and analysis.
- You are w illing to travel internationally on occasion.
- You learn fast, are curious, and proactively build new skills.
- You think critically and translate results into clear conclusions, including risks and limitations.
- You value scientific rigor, reproducibility, and transparent reporting.
- You provide decision\-ready recommendations—not just plots and metrics.
- You take ownership of small work packages and ask for feedback early to iterate quickly.
- You prefer working only with fully curated datasets and are not interested in sensing, data collection, or validation strategy.
- You are uncomfortable with scientific discussion, peer review, or challenging assumptions.
- You are looking primarily for a project management role rather than hands\-on scientific/technical work.
We believe that we are better together than apart. For our office\-based teams, this means working in\-person at least 3 days per week.
