Neurodiagnostic Technologist 2 (EEG)

Bring your EEG expertise to a growing neurodiagnostic program where the quality of every recording can shape diagnosis, treatment, and a patient’s path forward. 

UVA Health is seeking an experienced Neurodiagnostic Technologist to perform routine and advanced EEG studies for patients with a wide range of neurological conditions. This is an opportunity to join a supportive, patient-focused EEG and Epilepsy team, contribute with a high degree of independence, and serve as a trusted clinical and technical resource as the program expands. 

The Role 

As a Neurodiagnostic Technologist 2, you will combine technical precision, clinical judgment, and compassionate communication to produce high-quality studies that neurologists and other healthcare professionals rely on for patient care. You will work with both inpatient and outpatient populations, adapting your approach to varied neurological presentations, patient needs, and technical challenges. 

This role is well suited for an experienced EEG technologist who is comfortable organizing an independent workload while remaining actively connected to a collaborative team. You will be encouraged to share your knowledge, assist colleagues, and help newer technologists build confidence and capability. 

In an average day, you will: 

• Perform routine and advanced EEG studies in accordance with established protocols and quality standards. 

• Review relevant patient history and prepare an appropriate, patient-centered approach to each study. 

• Explain procedures clearly, help patients feel informed and comfortable, and adjust communication based on individual needs. 

• Obtain technically accurate, clinically useful recordings across a variety of patient populations and neurological conditions. 

• Identify and troubleshoot artifact, equipment, electrode, and recording challenges while protecting study integrity. 

• Complete accurate, timely documentation and communicate relevant information to physicians and other healthcare professionals. 

• Manage your daily workload independently, recognize priorities, and respond proactively to the needs of the lab. 

• Support colleagues when needed and contribute to a culture of shared accountability. 

• Serve as a mentor and technical resource for newer EEG technologists, sharing best practices and practical guidance. 

• Remain adaptable and receptive to feedback while learning UVA Health workflows, protocols, and departmental standards. 

This is an on-site outpatient lab position with a Monday through Friday schedule from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. The environment offers an appealing combination of focused independent practice, meaningful patient interaction, and close collaboration with neurology and epilepsy professionals.
