Laboratory Technician – Molecular Diagnostics

Lab Technician – Molecular Biology

Rapidemic is looking for a highly rigorous laboratory technician with solid hands‑on molecular biology experience to support development and execution of enzymatic assay and diagnostic workflows. This is a temporary position (12–18 months), with the potential for extension depending on company needs. You will work independently at the bench and as part of a small multidisciplinary team. The work focuses on DNA amplification technologies and requires strong bench discipline, accurate documentation, and reliable execution.

• Prepare and execute DNA amplification assays and other molecular biology workflows.
• Handle enzymes and nucleic acid reagents with traceable quality documentation.
• Independently plan, execute, and report experiments and QC runs.
• Maintain lab equipment and calibrations (pipettes, qPCR instruments, etc.).
• Keep accurate lab records (ELN) following SOPs and Good Documentation Practices.

• HBO, BSc or equivalent in Molecular Biology/Biotechnology (MSc also welcome).
• ~3–5 years hands‑on experience in a molecular biology lab (industry or advanced academic).
• Familiarity with quality processes under ISO
  13485.
• Proven track record of rigorous lab work and disciplined pipetting practices.
• Familiarity with DNA amplification (qPCR sufficient) workflows and standard enzyme‑based assays.
• Ability to work independently and proactively communicate results and issues.

A small, collaborative environment where your ideas matter and you can influence how things are done. Direct exposure to assay development, quality thinking, and early diagnostic product building. A culture that values professionalism, science, and respect. A role with real responsibility — not just executing steps, but owning your workflows.

Market compensation aligned with experience.
