  • Data capture, QC processes, and reporting outputs

Development and Maintenance

  • Maintain and configure test methods, panels, instrument integrations, and master data within LIMS.
  • Develop and maintain operational dashboards and reports (e.g., TAT, throughput, QC trends, error rates).
  • Support data integrity initiatives and continuous improvement of laboratory metrics.

Broad LIMS/IT Initiatives

  • Support broader LIMS/IT initiatives and system upgrades as bandwidth allows.
  • Work closely with IT and external partners to ensure scalable and robust system architecture.
  • Support audit and inspection readiness activities related to laboratory informatics systems.

  • Ensure software validation records remain current, complete, and compliant.

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS

  • Bachelor’s degree in biology, Chemistry, Clinical Laboratory Science, Computer Science, or related field.
  • 5+ years of experience.
  • 2+ years of experience with LIMS/LIS systems in a laboratory environment.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

  • Experience with LIMS configuration, scripting, or system engineering.
  • Hands-on laboratory experience with clinical or translational workflows (e.g., ELISA, immunoassays, or similar) and/or experience supporting software validation activities within regulated laboratory environments.
  • Experience supporting regulated environments (CLIA, CAP, GxP).
  • Experience with:
    • IQ/OQ/PQ documentation
    • Software testing
    • Requirements traceability
    • Change management
  • Strong understanding of laboratory workflows, data integrity, and quality systems.

  • Familiarity with instrument integrations and data pipelines.
  • Experience in validation methodologies (IQ/OQ/PQ, software validation).
  • Certification as MLS/MT (ASCP or equivalent).
  • Experience in biomarker, clinical trial, or CRO environments.
  • Exposure to dashboarding tools (e.g., Power BI) or data analysis workflows.
  • Experience supporting LabVantage LIMS, LabVantage Analytics, and/or Physician’s Portal.
  • Familiarity with ServiceNow, JIRA, or similar project tracking tools.
