Description:

We’re looking for a Medical Laboratory Technician trainee who’s ready to learn, grow, and make a quiet but meaningful difference in people’s lives. You don’t need to have years of experience — just a careful mindset, a willingness to follow procedures, and a true respect for accuracy. You’ll be paired with experienced lab techs who will teach you not just how to do the work, but why every step matters. You’ll run routine tests, special orders, and the occasional urgent request that comes with zero room for error. You’ll follow protocols to the letter, calibrate equipment daily, and document results with clinical discipline. You’ll help doctors make decisions, not by guessing — but by delivering data that’s accurate and timely. We’ll walk you through the use of analyzers, microscopes, centrifuges, and other essential tools — step by step, no pressure. Your workspace will be organized, your records neat, and your attention always where it needs to be. You will be exposed to hematology, microbiology, immunoassay, and biochemistry benches — not for speed, but for process understanding. You’ll ensure that every label matches, every control passes, and every abnormal flag is reviewed properly.

Basic Qualifications:

• Participate in internal audits, external inspections (e.g., CLIA, CAP), and staff training sessions to ensure lab compliance and quality.
• Collaborate with medical technologists, pathologists, and clinicians to clarify test orders, discuss abnormalities, or retest when needed.
• Ensure all documentation is completed clearly and accurately for regulatory compliance and patient safety.
• Help track and manage inventory of lab supplies and reagents—restocking or alerting supervisors when levels run low.
• Follow proper biosafety and infection control procedures when handling specimens to ensure a safe laboratory environment.

Preferred:

• Open to continuous training and staying updated with new testing methods and technologies.
• Follows strict protocols for specimen labeling, preparation, and storage to ensure test validity.
• Values precision, reliability, and adherence to scientific and ethical standards.
• Organized with documentation, test requisitions, and daily workflow priorities.
• Understands the importance of confidentiality, patient safety, and regulatory compliance (e.g. CLIA, HIPAA).

Benefits:

• You’ll have input into workflow design, equipment upgrades, and procedural improvements.
• Team rituals include safety huddles, “weirdest specimen of the week,” and lab wins boards that don’t forget the quiet work.
• You’ll collaborate with doctors, pathologists, nurses, and lab peers — your work is part of a wider care chain.
• We maintain strict safety protocols, consistent scheduling, and real-time communication — your time and health matter.
• Your reports help catch diseases early, guide treatment, and reassure or protect lives — and that impact is not taken lightly.

You’ll train not just your hands, but your eyes — to spot inconsistencies, notice contamination risks, and double-check every ID number. You’ll support preparation of reagents, cleaning of equipment, and maintenance of lab cleanliness to minimize contamination risk. You’ll learn how to work efficiently without rushing, and how to prioritize accuracy over speed when it counts most. You’ll have moments of routine, but also those small “a-ha” insights when something finally clicks — and we’ll celebrate that with you. You’ll start small, but everything you do — every test you touch — plays a role in helping someone get answers they need. You’ll leave each shift knowing you contributed to something bigger, even if you never saw the patient face-to-face. You’ll develop a foundational understanding of medical diagnostics — not from theory, but from applied practice and precision. You’ll begin as an observer, but you’re expected to grow into a contributor — someone trusted to perform basic procedures to protocol. If you’re ready to build serious technical habits, work under strict standards, and grow in a professional medical lab setting — we’re ready to train you properly.
