We are seeking a detail-oriented and dependable Laboratory Operations Assistant to support daily activities within our bioanalytical department. This role is essential to maintaining the integrity of our laboratory processes and ensuring smooth operations. Responsibilities include handling analytical instruments, managing sample materials, and performing quality control reviews of bioanalytical records and data.
Schedule & Compensation: This is a part-time position working approximately 20 hours per week, Monday–Friday, between 8:00 AM and 5:00 PM, with scheduling flexibility based on your availability. Pay is $17.00/hour. This position does not include benefits. It is an excellent opportunity for students or individuals seeking meaningful part-time experience in a professional laboratory setting.
Essential Functions:
Laboratory Operations & Compliance
- Prepare, store, inventory, and dispose of laboratory solutions in compliance with EHS standards and applicable SOPs.
- Clean glassware used in solution preparation and maintain general laboratory organization, stocking, and inventory.
- Adhere to all written instructions, SOPs, and working instructions related to job responsibilities.
Sample Management
- Receive, check in, and accurately log biological samples upon arrival.
- Organize and dispose of analytical samples per SOPs and working instructions.

Special Requirement — Bona Fide Occupational Qualification
This position requires the incumbent to be a non-nicotine/tobacco user. Due to the nature of the work — including the preparation of sensitive solutions and continuous contact with glassware and storage areas — nicotine contamination poses a meaningful risk to study integrity. As a volatile compound, nicotine can compromise results even through trace exposure, including secondhand contact or residual exposure from clothing or nicotine-present environments.
