Daytime Hours, Three Modalities, Room to Grow: A Sonographer Opportunity in the Syracuse, NY Area
For many experienced sonographers, the trade-off has felt fixed. Better pay or broader clinical skills usually come with call schedules, weekend rotations, and late finishes. This opportunity is set up differently.
It offers a Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM schedule with no evenings, no weekends, and no on-call. The salary range is $87,360 to $114,400, and the employer pays for you to train in additional ultrasound modalities.
If you are happily employed and not looking, that is fine. A.W. Forbes represents this position confidentially, and a first conversation is simply a chance to see whether it fits where you want your career to go.
Why This Role Deserves a Closer Look
• A schedule you can plan a life around. Weekday daytime hours with no call means your evenings and weekends stay yours.
• Clinical breadth. You will perform general, vascular, and cardiac ultrasound. Sonographers who work confidently across all three bring unusual versatility to any team, and that range stays with you for the rest of your career.
• An employer that invests in skills. A paid, three-week cross-training program, ongoing clinical support, and certification reimbursement are built into the role.
• Outpatient focus. Exams are performed across multiple outpatient clinic locations in the Syracuse area rather than in an inpatient hospital setting.
The Clinical Opportunity
In this role you will perform general, vascular, and echocardiography exams for patients across several local outpatient clinics. Your day will combine technical skill with direct patient care, and the employer places a clear emphasis on communication and a patient-focused approach.
The position suits two kinds of sonographers especially well. The first holds one registry and wants to add modalities without paying for it personally or giving up a steady schedule. The second already works in more than one modality and is ready to step away from hospital call.
The role involves travel between local clinic locations, and mileage benefits are provided. New team members complete a paid, three-week cross-training program in Alabama, followed by ongoing clinical support once you are working locally.
Compensation and Benefits
• $42 to $55 per hour ($87,360 to $114,400 annually), full-time, direct hire
• Annual bonus opportunity
• 401(k)
• Paid time off and paid holidays
• Certification reimbursement
• Mileage benefits for travel between clinics
• Paid three-week cross-training program
• Comprehensive benefits package (full details provided during the conversation)
Life in the Syracuse Area
Syracuse lets you live well on a sonographer's income. In early 2026, homes in the city sold at a median of about $180,000, and the Onondaga County median was about $240,000, well below national levels. Buyers can choose between city neighborhoods, established suburbs, and small lakeside villages.
The region is also gaining momentum. In January 2026, Micron broke ground on its planned $100 billion semiconductor complex in nearby Clay, the largest private investment in New York State history. The first plant is scheduled to begin production in 2030.
Downtown, Armory Square brings together restaurants, shops, and nightlife in restored 19th-century buildings, close to the Museum of Science and Technology, the Landmark Theatre, and the Everson Museum of Art. Syracuse University athletics draw big crowds to the JMA Wireless Dome.
Outdoor life runs through all four seasons. You can walk or bike the trails at Onondaga Lake Park, swim and hike at Green Lakes State Park, or drive about 30 minutes to the village of Skaneateles on its namesake Finger Lake. The wider Finger Lakes wine country and Lake Ontario are within easy reach for weekend trips. Lake-effect snow is part of winter here, and so are skiing and snowshoeing.
Families and lifelong learners have Syracuse University, SUNY Upstate Medical University, Le Moyne College, and Onondaga Community College nearby. Syracuse Hancock International Airport and the I-81 and I-90 corridors make travel simple.
Qualifications
• At least one year of clinical sonography experience
• Current ARDMS, ARRT, or CCI certification in general, vascular, and/or cardiac ultrasound
• Willingness to cross-train in additional modalities
• Strong communication skills and a patient-focused approach
• Ability to travel between local clinic locations
