  • Prepare reagents and maintain laboratory standards
  • Communicate effectively with providers and team members to ensure high-quality patient care

What You Bring

  • Strong attention to detail and ability to manage multiple tasks efficiently
  • Excellent communication and customer service skills
  • Ability to work independently with confidence and accountability
  • MLS: Bachelor’s degree in Medical Laboratory Science or related field
  • MLT: Associate degree from an accredited program
  • ASCP certification required
  • Valid driver’s license with a clean driving record

What We Offer
We are committed to supporting our team with a comprehensive and competitive benefits package designed for both your professional and personal well-being:

  • Competitive wages
  • Health plan with employer-funded Health Savings Account
  • Immediate retirement plan matching
  • Generous paid time off
  • Dental and vision coverage
  • On-site childcare for convenience and peace of mind
  • Employer-paid life insurance and short- and long-term disability coverage
