Follow safety guidelines, quality systems, and company policies at all times. Perform other job‑related duties as assigned. REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS Bachelor or Master degree in molecular biology, biochemistry, genetics, or a related scientific discipline. 1–2 years of hands‑on laboratory experience (industry, academic, or internship experience acceptable). Basic understanding of molecular biology techniques such as PCR, qPCR, and DNA/RNA extraction. Familiarity with NGS concepts and workflows is a plus. Ability to follow detailed protocols and standard operating procedures. Strong attention to detail and organizational skills. Willingness to learn new techniques and adapt to changing project needs. Good written and verbal communication skills. Ability to work effectively as part of a team in a fast‑paced laboratory environment.
