Execute quality control validation, reagent lot verification, instrument function checks, preventive maintenance, and calibrations; maintain complete and accurate documentation.
Troubleshoot technical issues, document corrective actions, and communicate findings to supervisory staff in a timely manner.
Prepare and maintain documentation for QC metrics for PGT-A, and other molecular assay runs.
Support new assay development, validation studies, and implementation of emerging molecular methods.
Maintain appropriate inventory levels of reagents and supplies; assist with ordering and vendor coordination.
Respond to inquiries from patients and healthcare providers regarding sample status and test information.

Required Education and Experience:

Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Biological Sciences, Molecular Biology, Genetics, or related field.
