**Shift: 1st Shift -** Monday - Friday 7:00am - 3:30pm; Rotating weekends/holidays
**Hiring Manager:** Lisha Bishop
The 1st Shift Assistant/Associate Biochemist position involves learning and mastering manual and automated testing procedures conducted within an FDA regulated GMP/GLP environment. Performs biological testing of moderate to advanced complexity within the **QC Biochemistry Laboratory Animal Facility.** Manual Laboratory testing methods revolve around animal testing using rabbits, guinea pigs, and mice. Animal handling experience is required. Responsibilities also include sample accessioning, sample preparation, reagent preparation, in-process testing, result calculation, performing IV injections, as well as quality control of assays and equipment. Candidates for the position must have experience using micropipettes and serological pipettes while making dilutions and serial dilutions. The person that fills this position must possess a keen attention to detail in that they will be performing complex assays and must be able to perform tasks by following SOP's and oral instructions. Must have precise, legible, and organized documentation skills. Candidates must also be willing to perform ones share of cleaning duties and housekeeping. Candidate will be exposed to animal dander, chemicals, biohazardous waste and potential exposure to infectious organisms.
**Note:** This position requires the individual to prove they are immunized against each virus listed in job description or they will have to get immunized by through the Grifols Health Services. Annual health monitoring is required and provided by Grifols Health Services.
**Requirements by level:**
**Assistant Biochemist** :
The Assistant Biochemist is expected to recognize "abnormal" results and to perform some preliminary evaluation of her/his performance of the test procedure. All of the biological testing within the QC Biochemistry Animal Facility is to be performed in a safe, accurate, and efficient manner following established written procedures keeping complete, legible and accurate records of the work and results. An Assistant Biochemist is expected to learn and follow the methods for the safe use of the reagents, chemicals, animals, and equipment associated with the required testing. An Assistant Biochemist must be able to recognize signs of illness, abnormal food and water consumption, and unusual behavior in laboratory animals. The Assistant Biochemist has a variety of daily / weekly assignments (e.g.: preparation of samples for testing, logging in samples, housekeeping, etc.) that they are expected to accomplish without specific direction to do so. The Assistant Biochemist consults with Associate Biochemists and/or the Laboratory Supervisor on significant problems. The solutions to such problems are always within the confines of the test procedures. All of the test results of an Assistant Biochemist are reviewed by either the Lab Supervisor or a designated Associate Biochemist for "reasonableness" and conformance to the required limit(s). No unexpected test result generated by an Assistant Biochemist is accepted without an independent confirmation (normally by an Associate Biochemist) and review of the results by the Lab Supervisor. While this is an entry-level position, the Assistant Biochemist is expected to progress to a performance level requiring less direct supervision (either by the Laboratory Supervisor or the assigned Associate Biochemist trainer). An Assistant Biochemist participates in Quality Control testing for which they are trained.
An Associate degree in a life science field, medical technology, or related curriculum and a minimum of six months of applicable laboratory experience or a BS/BA degree in a life science field, medical technology, or related curriculum is required.
**Associate Biochemist:**
The Associate Biochemist is expected to have benefited from the two or more years of directly applicable experience as an Assistant Biochemist. The Associate Biochemist position requires somewhat greater than time/work management skills than the Assistant Biochemist position because the incumbent us expected to complete work assignments accurately and efficiently in a generally autonomous fashion. The Associate Biochemist requires more than basic verbal and written communication skills because the incumbent will be required to communicate test results, assay problems, and equipment problems to others outside of the lab (and outside of the company). The Associate Biochemist will also be involved in the development and revision of laboratory procedures. The Associate Biochemist is expected to maintain a professional relationship with peers, to be an effective member of the lab "team" working toward common goals, and to work well in a situation in which most equipment necessary to complete one's daily assignment is also used by others. The Associate Biochemist requires more than basic human relations skills because they may be required to coordinate the laboratory's activities in the absence of the supervisor and/or team leader.
The Associate Biochemist position is normally a progression from the Assistant Biochemist position in the Quality Control Biochemistry Animal Facility. Therefore, the Associate Biochemist position also requires knowledge equivalent to a minimum of two years of college level biology courses or Medical Technology courses (one year of general biology course(s) with associated laboratory work, and one year of microbiology course(s) with associated laboratory work). While the content of the course work specified above is generally applicable to the Assistant Biochemist position, the associated laboratory experience is more specifically applicable to the position's work assignments.
Work is performed in an office and a vivarium environment. Exposure to biological fluids, animal dander, with potential exposure to infectious organisms. Exposure to electrical office and laboratory equipment. Personal protective equipment required such as protective eyewear, laboratory garments, and gloves. Work is performed sitting or standing for 2-4 hours per day. Frequent hand movement of both hands with the ability to make fast, simple, movements of the fingers, hands, and wrists. Ability to make precise coordinated movements, of the fingers to grasp and manipulate objects. Light to moderate lifting and carrying objects with a maximum lift of 50lbs. Occasionally walks, bends, and twists neck and waist, may reach above or below shoulder height. Frequent foot movements. Color perception/discrimination and near vision correctable in one eye to 20/30 and to 20/100 in the other eye. Able to communicate complex information and ideas so others will understand; with the ability to listen to and understand information and ideas presented through spoken and written words and sentences. Performs tasks by following a set of written or oral instructions/procedures.
