Exceptional orthopedic care, accessible to all — and we need you to help deliver it.

Genesis Orthopedics & Sports Medicine has spent over 20 years building something rare: top-tier orthopedic care that's open to everyone — including patients on Medicaid, Medicare, or no insurance at all. With 16 locations across Chicagoland and 40,000+ patients treated, we're one of the fastest-growing independent orthopedic practices in the country.

We're growing our imaging team and looking for an X-Ray Technologist who wants to do meaningful work in a clinic that actually stands for something.

What You'll Do

• Perform extremity X-ray and fluoroscopic imaging to support diagnosis and treatment, following physician orders and ALARA principles
• Prepare patients for procedures and walk them through what to expect
• Room patients, collect vitals, and document accurately in the EMR (Epic)
• Support clinical tasks like injection prep, wound care, DME, and pre/post-op care
• Relay physician and PA instructions to patients about their treatment plans
• Maintain imaging equipment, perform daily QC checks, and report issues promptly
• Triage calls and pitch in where the team needs you

Who We're Looking For

You have a degree in Radiologic Technology and are either ARRT certified or on track to complete certification within 6 months of hire. Illinois Department of Nuclear Safety (or IDPH Radiologic Technologist) licensure is required to practice in this role.

Beyond credentials, we're looking for someone who:

• Enjoys working directly with patients and takes pride in their experience
• Stays calm, adapts quickly, and looks for ways to make things run smoother
• Is curious, collaborative, and not afraid to jump in where needed
• Is comfortable standing for extended periods and lifting up to 25–30 lbs as part of patient positioning
• Speaks Spanish? That's a real asset in the communities we serve

New grads are welcome. If you have the degree and the drive, we want to hear from you.

What You'll Get

• $54,000–$74,000 annual salary, based on experience
• 401(k) with company matching
• Health, dental, disability, and life insurance
• Paid time off
• Continuing education funds
• Opportunities for advancement
• A team that's genuinely invested in your growth, in communities that need and appreciate this work every day
