  • Experience in conducting and coordinating laboratory-based diagnostic tests, preferably within a quality management system (e.g. ISO 17025) in a diagnostic laboratory, with the ability to address complex and undefined problems in a timely and technically sound manner
  • Demonstrated expertise in conventional and real-time PCR techniques
  • Strong interpersonal, written, and verbal communication skills, including the ability to document results clearly and collaborate effectively with colleagues and clients from diverse cultural backgrounds to achieve project goals and timelines
  • Proven ability to work both independently and collaboratively within a multidisciplinary project team, fostering respectful and effective relationships with colleagues and collaborators

Nice to have:

  • Experience using LIMS (Laboratory Information Management System)
  • Experience supporting the development and validation of molecular diagnostic assays
  • Knowledge and experience in DNA sequencing and sequence analysis
