The Clinical Laboratory Scientist assumes a crucial role in our organization, conducting a diverse range of laboratory tests within the confines of licensure.

Under the guidance of the Laboratory Manager, this role executes routine and technically intricate laboratory testing and analysis. Additionally, the incumbent assists the Laboratory General Supervisor and Laboratory Manager in troubleshooting and various quality-related monitoring activities.

- Execute a diverse range of laboratory tests across all laboratory areas, aligning with licensure requirements.
- Contribute to laboratory quality control by maintaining accurate records, overseeing instrument calibration and maintenance, and conducting reagent validations as necessary.

- Conduct research and development activities to shape future test protocols when required.
- Actively participate in and represent the clinical laboratory in various cross-functional process improvement projects.
- Adhere to established laboratory policies and procedures, and contribute to the creation of new laboratory procedures as needed.
- Demonstrate the ability to identify issues that may adversely affect test performance or reporting of results and take appropriate corrective measures.
- Document all corrective actions implemented in the event of a deviation in the test system.
- Assist in instructing non-testing personnel in the principles and techniques of diagnostic tests and examinations.
What we're looking for:
- Current California Clinical Laboratory Scientist generalist license, with a preference for prior experience in Next-Generation Sequencing laboratory settings.
- 2+ years of professional experience as a licensed Clinical Laboratory Scientist.
- Possession of an earned baccalaureate or higher degree with a major in a relevant scientific field.
- Demonstrated proficiency in organizational, communication, and interpersonal skills.
What We Offer:
- 💰 Competitive salary
- ✨ Comprehensive medical, dental, vision, life, and disability benefits
- 📈 401k match
- 📱 Monthly phone and wifi stipend for employees
- ⌨️ One-time ergonomic stipend for your remote work set up
- 🏝 Generous vacation policy, paid holidays and company-wide recharge days
- 🍼 Equal paid parental leave for birthing and non-birthing parents
- 🧬 Four complimentary clinical-grade genetic testing kits for you and your family
