Lab Assistant Ii information

What is the difference between Lab Assistant Ii vs Lab Assistant I?

AspectLab Assistant IiLab Assistant I
Required CredentialsHigh school diploma; some roles may require certification or relevant courseworkHigh school diploma; minimal certification needed
Work EnvironmentLaboratory settings, hospitals, research facilitiesSimilar laboratory environments, often entry-level
Employer & Industry UsageUsed across healthcare, research, and clinical labsCommonly used in similar settings, often as entry-level
Job ResponsibilitiesPerforming tests, maintaining lab equipment, recording dataAssisting with basic lab tasks, preparing samples

The main difference between Lab Assistant Ii and Lab Assistant I lies in experience and responsibilities. Lab Assistant Ii typically requires more experience or specialized training, handling more complex tasks, while Lab Assistant I is an entry-level position focused on basic lab support. Both roles are essential in laboratory settings, but the Lab Assistant Ii often takes on more advanced duties.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Lab Assistant II?

To thrive as a Lab Assistant II, you need a solid understanding of laboratory techniques, specimen handling, and safety protocols, usually supported by a relevant associate degree or equivalent laboratory experience. Familiarity with laboratory information systems (LIS), automated analyzers, and quality control procedures is typically required. Attention to detail, strong organizational skills, and effective communication help Lab Assistants excel in a fast-paced, accuracy-driven environment. These competencies are crucial for maintaining reliable lab operations, ensuring data integrity, and supporting scientific or clinical teams.

What is a Lab Assistant II?

Lab Assistant II positions are roles within laboratories that involve performing a variety of tasks to support scientific research or medical testing. These duties often include preparing specimens, operating basic lab equipment, maintaining cleanliness, and recording data. Lab Assistant II typically denotes a more experienced or specialized role compared to entry-level lab assistants, sometimes requiring additional technical skills or certifications. They may also be responsible for training junior staff and ensuring safety protocols are followed. The role is essential for the efficient and safe operation of many laboratory environments.

What are some typical challenges faced by a Lab Assistant II, and how can they be managed effectively?

Lab Assistant IIs often juggle multiple responsibilities such as preparing samples, maintaining equipment, and ensuring compliance with safety protocols. A common challenge is managing time efficiently while handling urgent requests from researchers or supervisors. Staying organized, prioritizing tasks, and maintaining clear communication with team members are key strategies to manage these demands. Additionally, proactively participating in regular training sessions helps stay updated on laboratory procedures and safety standards, making daily tasks more manageable.

Job description

About Pegasus

Pegasus is an aerospace and defense technology company developing advanced sensing and alerting systems that connect pilots and aircraft like never before. Our flagship technology, MIDAS, provides real-time flight safety insights to military and commercial operators, enabling safer operations in even the harshest conditions. Backed by major defense primes and government partners, Pegasus is entering a critical growth phase in 2027 — and we’re expanding our engineering team to deliver the next generation of intelligent, connected flight safety systems.


Role Overview

We’re looking for a hands-on Electronics Engineering Research Specialist to assist with the design, development, and validation of next-generation aerospace sensing platforms.
You’ll contribute to the full hardware lifecycle — from concept and schematic design through prototyping, testing, and production handoff — working closely with firmware, mechanical, and systems teams.

This role is ideal for a recent Ph.D. graduate with a deep understanding of sensor design – whether electromagnetic, ultrasonic, or electro-optical – who’s ready to learn and grow within a multidisciplinary aerospace engineering environment.

You’ll help build reliable, low-power electronic sensors that enable flight safety in challenging and mission-critical applications.
This is a full-time position for a term of two years, supported by the Mitacs Accelerate program in collaboration with the University of Alberta’s Faculty of Engineering.


Key Responsibilities

Hardware Research & Development

  • Research state-of-the art methodologies for electronically-controlled sensors.
  • Design and develop high-speed electronic circuits for high-fidelity sensing.
  • Assist with implementing low-power designs for battery-operated and wireless platforms (BLE, Li-Ion/NiMH).
  • Create schematics, perform PCB layout (in Altium Designer or KiCad), and support bring-up, integration and verification testing.
  • Participate in component selection, prototyping, and design optimization for performance, manufacturability, and reliability.

System Integration & Testing

  • Collaborate with firmware, mechanical, and systems teams on cross-functional integration and debugging.
  • Support lab and field testing for prototype systems.
  • Conduct testing, validation, and troubleshooting of electronic hardware and subsystems.

Quality & Compliance

  • Contribute to design documentation and revision control.
  • Support EMI/EMC, environmental, and reliability testing as needed.
  • Assist in meeting relevant aerospace and regulatory standards.

Collaboration & Growth

  • Work within a fast-paced, collaborative engineering team.
  • Contribute ideas to improve product design, efficiency, and reliability.
  • Learn from senior engineers while growing into increasing technical ownership over time.


Required Skills & Experience

  • Completed Ph.D. in electrical/electronics engineering, physics, or similar within the past 5 years.
  • 2-5 years of experience in electronic hardware design, ideally for embedded or wireless systems.
  • Hands-on experience with microwave laboratory testing equipment
  • Experience with PCB design tools (Altium Designer or KiCad).
  • Strong understanding of circuit design, debugging, and electronics test equipment use.
  • Excellent communication, collaboration, and documentation skills.
  • Motivated, detail-oriented, and comfortable working in a multidisciplinary environment.


Nice to Have

  • Experience working in an electronics laboratory / testing environment
  • Familiarity with RF design, microwave instrumentation, or EMI/EMC best practices.
  • Exposure to manufacturing, test automation, or design for certification and Qualification processes.
  • Interest in ultra-low power design and IoT hardware optimization.


Why Join Us

Pegasus is defining the next era of intelligent flight. As an Electronics Engineering Research Specialist, you’ll contribute to technologies that enhance global aviation safety and reliability. You’ll work alongside talented engineers across software, systems, and data disciplines — helping to build hardware that flies in some of the world’s most advanced aircraft.

We offer:

  • Professional growth and mentorship opportunities
  • A mission-driven culture focused on technical excellence, impact, and integrity

Join a team engineering the future of connected flight.
