If you take pride in precision, thrive in a clean, structured lab environment, and want your work to genuinely matter, we'd love to meet you.

• Complete raw material sampling and check-in procedures for incoming materials.

• Support the initial washing, batching, and filtering of incoming RBC packs, including setting up aspirating pumps and fill stations.
• Follow Standard Operating Procedures to keep production organized and compliant.
• Maintain clean work areas using proper aseptic and hand-washing techniques.
• Keep management informed on production schedules, process issues, and personnel concerns.
• Comply with departmental and company safety guidelines, including FDA and ISO regulations.
• Accurately document component usage and adhere to established Quality Systems.
• Contribute ideas for improving processes through cost, time, and labor savings.

What You Bring

• High School Diploma or GED.
• A dependable, organized approach with strong interpersonal and communication skills.
• A proven, solid work history.
• Prior laboratory experience is a plus, but not required.
• Comfort working with computers and basic office/lab software.
• Ability to perform general arithmetic and accurately measure, pour, and decant liquids.

Skills You'll Use

• Operating laboratory equipment such as aspirators, centrifuges, auto-fillers, and peristaltic pumps.
• Tracking multiple samples across different instruments and maintaining accurate printouts.
• Reading and understanding Safety Data Sheets (SDS).

Work Environment

This role is based in a climate-controlled biological/chemical laboratory, with occasional short periods in walk-in coolers. You'll wear required lab attire (lab coat, hair bonnet, and beard cover as applicable) along with PPE such as masks, gloves, and face shields for up to two and a half hours at a time. The role involves standing, walking, lifting up to 40 pounds occasionally, and other physical activity typical of a hands-on production environment. Reasonable accommodations are available for individuals with disabilities.
