This opportunity places you at the heart of a fast-paced, CLIA-certified laboratory environment where your specialized expertise informs diagnoses, guides treatment plans, and strengthens the continuum of care for diverse populations across the Bay Area and beyond. Your work will span core disciplines—from clinical chemistry and hematology to microbiology and transfusion medicine—requiring meticulous attention to detail, rigorous quality control, and a collaborative approach with clinicians, nurses, and fellow laboratory professionals. If you’re driven by precision, enjoy solving complex puzzles, and take pride in delivering reliable, timely results, this assignment offers a meaningful stage to demonstrate leadership, expand your skill set, and advance within the clinical laboratory science field. And while you’re advancing your career, California’s beauty awaits—sun-kissed coastlines, majestic redwoods, world-class wine regions, and vibrant cities offer countless ways to unwind and recharge between shifts. Location Benefits: Greenbrae sits in Marin County, a gateway to the natural splendor of the Northern California coast just a short drive from San Francisco. Living here means a balance of serene suburban charm and easy access to the city’s cultural tapestry, culinary delights, and outdoor adventures. The region’s mild climate makes outdoor activities inviting year-round, from hiking and cycling along scenic Bay Area trails to coastal strolls along nearby beaches. Beyond Marin, the opportunity to work at locations across the United States provides you with exposure to diverse patient populations and laboratory practices, broadening your professional network and sharpening your adaptability. You’ll enjoy the appeal of working close to the water, with panoramic views and a supportive community, while also benefiting from the possibility of experiencing different regions, hospital systems, and laboratory technologies across the country. The assignment emphasizes not just your immediate impact, but a broader, location-spanning professional journey. Role Specifics and Benefits: In this assignment, you’ll be responsible for performing, validating, and reporting a broad spectrum of laboratory tests with clinical significance. Your daily duties will include specimen accessioning, test performance across modalities (chemistry, hematology, microbiology, and, when applicable, transfusion services), quality control and assurance, instrument maintenance and troubleshooting, result verification, and prompt communication of critical findings to the care team. You’ll interpret preliminary data, ensure proper specimen handling, maintain meticulous documentation, and ensure compliance with CLIA, CAP, OSHA, and internal SOPs. The role offers robust professional growth: cross-training across disciplines, opportunities to develop leadership competencies, and potential for specialty certification support as you expand your scope of practice. You’ll work with cutting-edge analyzers and LIMS/EHR systems, enabling you to contribute to process improvements, data analytics, and evidence-based practices that enhance patient care. Competitive benefits include a sign-on bonus, comprehensive housing assistance, and the chance to pursue contract extensions based on performance and department needs. You will receive thorough onboarding, structured mentorship, and ongoing education to keep you current with evolving laboratory methodologies. The program is designed for a multi-week assignment with guaranteed hours and includes 24/7 support from a dedicated travel team.
