Responsibilities
Perform high-complexity laboratory testing on patient specimens using molecular biology protocols and next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies.
Extract and purify nucleic acids from various sample types, including tissue, blood, and bone marrow, following established SOPs.
Construct DNA libraries and execute NGS workflows such as whole genome, RNA, ChIP, exome, and targeted sequencing.
Maintain and document compliance with CLIA, CAP, and state regulatory standards.
Accession samples and manage workflows through Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS).
Monitor data quality, identify trends or deviations, and implement corrective measures as needed.
Support assay validation, research, and continuous process improvement projects.
Assist in training junior technologists and developing updated technical documentation.
Manage lab inventory and coordinate with supply chain teams to maintain necessary materials.
Adhere to laboratory safety and environmental health standards, including the proper use of PPE.
Qualifications
Bachelors degree in chemical, biological, physical, or clinical laboratory science, or medical technology.
Possession of an MB (ASCP) certification.
Possession of, or eligibility to obtain, Florida certification to work as a medical technologist in a molecular diagnostics laboratory.
