Full Job Description

You will perform molecular laboratory testing that helps to serve professionals in the biomedical and life science fields across the United States. You will join a fast-paced work environment that encourages teamwork and quality, and offers opportunities for personal growth. This is a full-time role with competitive benefits.

Why this role matters:

IDEXX BioAnalytics, Inc., a division of IDEXX Laboratories, Inc., is a leader in diagnostic testing for both the biomedical and life science markets. The laboratory is based in Columbia, Missouri, and employs approximately 60 people.

In this Role:

You will be part of a crew where teamwork is important.
You will be responsible for setting up and running laboratory molecular tests and reading the results per the laboratory’s SOPs (Standard Operating Procedures).
You can expect to specialize in PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) testing, where you will be examining samples for the presence of specific substances (often bacteria) using molecular diagnostic methods, including:
Samples homogenization;
Total nucleic acid extractions from a variety of sample types;
Molecular testing via real-time PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction);
Using analyzers and other molecular diagnostic methods to detect the molecular presence of pathogens.

What do you need to succeed?

You possess a 4-year degree in a Science-related field; ideally, the degree will be in Molecular Biology (BA or MA) or strong coursework in Biology to include PCR experience.
The ideal candidate will have at least 1 year of experience performing PCR testing in a high-volume, high-throughput testing laboratory. Experience setting up, running, reading lab tests, and operating laboratory equipment required.

Hourly rates starting at $22 + / hour for entry-level, pay rates of $24 +/ hour for candidates with more than 1 year of on-the-job experience (flexibility on pay dependent upon years of experience).

Opportunity to do meaningful work where you positively impact the lives of people and pets all over the world.

Schedule:

This is a full-time (40 hr/wk) day shift position with hours Monday-Friday, 11:30am - 8:00pm.
Reliable and dependable attendance is an essential function of the position.
