Bioinformatics Pipeline Development: Collaborate with bioinformatics professionals to coordinate the development, validation, and implementation of bioinformatics pipelines for the analysis of genomic data.
Research and Development: Drive innovation within the laboratory, identifying and implementing new technologies, methodologies, and assays to enhance diagnostic capabilities and support research initiatives.
Material and Vendor Management: Oversee the procurement, inventory management, and quality control of all laboratory materials and reagents. Manage relationships with vendors.
Stakeholder Collaboration: Effectively communicate with physicians, researchers, and other stakeholders to ensure seamless integration of laboratory services within the broader healthcare ecosystem.
Ownership and Autonomy: Take ownership of the laboratory's success, demonstrating initiative and autonomy in driving growth and achieving strategic objectives.

Qualifications:

Education: A Ph.D. in Molecular Biology, Genetics, Biochemistry, or a closely related field is required.
Sign Off: Must meet the necessary qualifications under CLIA and relevant state regulations to authorize and sign off on clinical laboratory test reports for physician delivery.
Experience:
Minimum of 4+ years of progressive experience in a molecular diagnostics laboratory setting, with significant experience in RNA and DNA sequencing technologies. Board certification (e.g., ABMG) is highly desirable.
Demonstrated experience successfully managing and leading a high-complexity CLIA-certified laboratory.
Proven track record of successfully navigating CLIA audits and maintaining compliance with state and federal regulations.
Experience in developing and implementing Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and quality assurance programs.
