Job description

Job DescriptionPosition Overview
I-2-I Solutions is looking for qualified part-time technicians to support Legionella environmental water sampling activities at Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) healthcare facilities throughout VISN 6.
Technicians will perform Legionella sampling in accordance with VA Directive 1061 and CDC Legionella environmental sampling procedures. The role includes collecting potable water system samples, cooling tower samples, performing field testing measurements, completing required documentation, and coordinating activities with VA facility representatives.
This position is well suited for professionals with experience in environmental sampling, water quality monitoring, industrial hygiene, laboratory procedures, healthcare facility operations, or institutional water management programs.
Sampling assignments are conducted across seven VA Medical Centers located in Virginia and North Carolina. Candidates who are available and willing to travel between facilities in both states are strongly preferred.
All sampling activities are performed during normal business hours.Schedule and Assignment Details
This is a part-time, event-based position with sampling activities scheduled quarterly (four planned sampling events per year).
Technicians will support sampling events at multiple VA Medical Centers, with additional site visits required when follow-up sampling or resampling is necessary due to positive Legionella detections.
Each facility requires a significant number of samples per event. Individual buildings generally include approximately 20 sampling locations, in addition to cooling tower sampling requirements. Sampling events may involve multiple days of field work, travel, and on-site activities.
Work hours are concentrated around scheduled quarterly sampling periods rather than occurring consistently throughout the year.Assigned VA Facilities
