Clinical Lab Technologist I/II/III

Role: Clinical Lab Technologist responsible for processing biological samples using extraction and high-throughput DNA sequencing assays within CLIA/CAP/FDA certified labs. Objectives include supporting research and clinical diagnostics by performing DNA extraction, PCR, and sequencing, ensuring regulatory compliance, and maintaining lab equipment. Responsibilities span sample preparation, assay execution, process validation, and quality control, with increasing independence from Level I to III. Qualifications require molecular biology expertise (DNA extraction, PCR, NGS), experience with human specimens, and relevant education (Bachelor’s or higher in medical, biological, or chemical sciences). Level I: 6+ months high-complexity molecular experience; Level II: 1+ year experience plus 3 years molecular lab work; Level III: 3+ years clinical high-complexity molecular experience, 5+ years in molecular labs. Preferred skills include ASCP(MB) certification, experience with automation, LIMS, and adaptive immunology technologies. Lab environment involves shift work (AM or PM) with potential evenings/weekends, requiring data entry and specimen handling. Compensation varies by level, with hourly rates ranging from $26.87 to $57.31, plus benefits and bonuses. High-value biopharma specifics include focus on molecular diagnostics, high-throughput sequencing, regulatory standards (GxP, GCP, GLP), and work supporting personalized medicine and immune diagnostics.
