  • Process, search, rinse, wash, grade, freeze, and thaw embryos according to IETS and Trans Ova protocols for both conventional and IVF programs.
  • Maintain accurate labeling, data entry, and inventory records, including embryo inventories, nitrogen tank levels, and documentation from flushes and transfers.
  • Uphold laboratory sanitation, safety standards, and compliance, following all Trans Ova policies, protocols, and workplace safety expectations.
  • Collaborate with internal teams—including sales, marketing, shipping, and production—and perform additional duties as assigned to support daily operations.
QUALIFICATIONS
  • BS in Animal Science or a related field; or a Veterinary Technician degree.
  • Ability to sit for long periods of time behind a microscope.
  • Good hand‑eye coordination.
