• Manage and safely carry out laboratory work requests, maintaining and operating relevant apparatus and testing equipment while ensuring accurate data documentation.
  

• Prepare for and independently perform standard and select non-routine procedures, which may involve the preparation of samples/materials, equipment setup/configuration, and proper disposal of experimental waste materials.
  

• Accurately record and document all results and observations using appropriate instruments and tools.
  

• Take responsibility for the calibration, safe operation, and routine maintenance of basic to moderately complex instruments or machinery; troubleshoot and facilitate necessary repairs as needed.
  

• Maintain inventory of consumables, chemicals, and supplies by anticipating usage, managing order lead times, and following purchasing procedures.
  

• Communicate promptly and effectively with Technology Leaders or lead scientists to address issues and enable timely problem resolution.
  

• Actively participate in team meetings focused on safety, process improvements, problem solving, and other group-driven initiatives.

Qualifications:

• Post-secondary education with a minimum of 20 credits in science-related courses, plus relevant work experience (local requirements may apply).
  

• Minimum of an Associate’s degree in a science-related discipline.
  

• Military Degree Equivalency (MDE) plus 1 year of relevant experience may be considered in lieu of a degree.
