Job description

We're currently seeking a detail-oriented and experienced Clinical Laboratory Technologist with a focus in Microbiology to join our lab team in Asheville, NC. In this role, you'll conduct a wide range of microbiological tests and analyses that directly support patient care and clinical decision-making. This is a great opportunity for someone looking to grow professionally in a collaborative and high-performing laboratory environment.

Clinical Laboratory Technologist – Microbiology

Location : Asheville, NC

Pay : $22–$38 / hr (based on experience)

Employment Type : Direct Hire

Key Responsibilities :

  • Perform routine and complex microbiological testing, including culture setup, organism identification, and antimicrobial susceptibility testing.
  • Operate, troubleshoot, and maintain laboratory equipment and instruments.
  • Ensure the accuracy, quality, and timely reporting of results in compliance with regulatory standards (CLIA, CAP, etc.).
  • Maintain clear, organized, and thorough documentation of all laboratory processes and results.
  • Collaborate effectively with physicians, nurses, and other healthcare professionals to deliver accurate diagnostic data.
  • Adhere to all safety, quality control, and infection prevention protocols.

Qualifications :

  • Bachelor's degree in Medical Technology, Clinical Laboratory Science, or a related field is required.
  • ASCP certification (or equivalent) as a Medical Technologist (MT / MLS) is preferred.
  • 4–7 years of hands-on clinical microbiology experience in a hospital or reference laboratory setting is preferred.
  • Minimum of 2 years in a leadership or supervisory capacity within a clinical laboratory is strongly preferred.
  • Proficient in performing and interpreting blood, stool, wound, and urine cultures, with experience in organism identification techniques (e.g., biochemicals, Vitek, MALDI-ToF).
  • Experience with parasitology microscopy and identification, including trichrome and concentration preparations.
  • Comfortable with operating and maintaining microbiology instrumentation (e.g., Vitek, MALDI-ToF).
  • Must have strong bench experience in clinical microbiology; molecular-only or academic-only microbiology experience will not meet the requirements for this position.
  • Excellent analytical thinking, problem-solving, and organizational abilities.
  • Able to work both independently and collaboratively in a fast-paced clinical setting.
  • Note : This job description outlines a comprehensive list of preferred qualifications and skills. However, we understand that not all candidates will meet every single criterion. If you have a strong foundation in clinical microbiology, we encourage you to apply — we'd love to learn more about you!
