Description & Requirements
Clinical Laboratory Process Development Technician (PDT)
The Genomics Platform has delivered on transformative projects for more than 30 years. We create foundational genomics resources and capabilities for the community and undertake large-scale disease-based projects that pioneer approaches and advance the understanding of the genomic basis of disease and other traits. We are dedicated to solving the world's most challenging biomedical problems through the continuous development and investment in cutting edge technology and large-scale research projects that are both challenging and complex.
Data generated by the Genomics Platform has enabled a wide range of applications, from variant discovery to delivery of polygenic risk scores and clinical diagnoses, and contributed knowledge to a wide array of fields, from rare disease research to population genomics, from cancer clinical trials to understanding cell circuitry.
We are expanding our team to support constantly evolving initiatives at our new, state-of-the-art facility located at 27 Blue Sky Drive in Burlington, MA.

  • Identifying problems that may adversely affect test performance or reporting of test results. Correct the problems according to procedures or immediately notify the General Supervisor, Technical Supervisor, Clinical Consultant or Laboratory Director.
  • Document all corrective actions taken when test systems deviate from the laboratory's established performance specifications.
  • Follow standard operating procedures

Minimum Qualifications:
  • BS/BA degree in Biology or Chemistry. (Please be prepared to provide a copy of the diploma and transcripts upon request).
  • Working, solid knowledge of primary biological and laboratory science principles required.
  • Recent (within the last year) undergraduate or entry level laboratory experience with the use of standard lab equipment such as pipettes and centrifuges required

Required Skills and Attributes:
  • Demonstrated strong analytical and problem-solving abilities, coupled with an innovative aptitude.
  • Excellent written and oral communication skills, strong interpersonal skills, and the proven ability to work effectively within a team environment.
  • Must possess exceptional attention to detail, strong organizational skills, and the capacity to successfully manage multiple tasks simultaneously
  • Proficiency with computers, databases, and working within Windows/Mac operating environments is essential.
  • Must be able to thrive in a demanding, fast-paced work environment.

Preferred Experience:
  • Some prior experience with statistical analysis
  • Experience with laboratory automation
