Job description

Molecular Laboratory Supervisor (Clinical PCR)

Own the reliability, speed, and integrity of a molecular lab running major PCR panels. Deliver 2448h TAT on every sampleand keep pushing the system toward 24 hours through focused, repeatable improvements that actually help patients.

If you like to coast, avoid hard conversations, or blame the process, this isnt for you.

What youll own

  • Daily operations : Plan, staff, and run end-to-end PCR workflows (accession extraction amplification analysis release) with clean handoffs and zero drama.
  • People & standards : Set the bar, coach up, and hold the line. Build a team that hits numbers and follows SOPs without shortcuts.
  • Quality & compliance : Keep QC tight, documentation current, and audits boring. Drive fixes that stick, not paperwork theater.
  • Throughput & TAT : Publish daily capacity plans, remove bottlenecks, and keep results movingespecially during spikes.
  • Continuous improvement : Measure, improve, lock in. Iterate weekly toward faster TAT and fewer errors.
  • Data integrity : Ensure LIS entries, audit trails, and result reviews are accurate, consistent, and defensible.

Outcomes (the bar youll be held to)

  • TAT : 95% of samples released within 2448 hours; visible progress toward a 24-hour steady state.
  • Quality : High first-pass yield with low invalids / reruns; zero contamination events.
  • Compliance : Clean internal / external reviews; issues closed with true corrective action.
  • Stability : No stockouts, no surprises, no excuses.
  • Non-negotiables (how you operate)

  • Owners mindset : You dont walk past problemsyou fix them and prevent repeat occurrences.
  • Urgency with precision : Fast is fine; sloppy is not.
  • If it isnt written, it didnt happen : You keep SOPs, logs, and training current.
  • Direct, adult communication : Clear standards, clear feedback, zero gossip.
  • Calm under pressure : Spikes, instrument hiccups, auditsyou stay composed and execute.
  • Qualifications (keep it simple, prove it in the interview)

  • Solid track record supervising a clinical molecular bench team.
  • Hands-on experience running major clinical PCR panels in a CLIA environment.
  • Demonstrated success improving TAT, reducing errors, and stabilizing operations.
  • Comfortable leading people, enforcing SOPs, and interfacing with quality / compliance.
  • Strong LIS literacy and data discipline.
  • Work setting

  • Schedule : Onsite, MondayFriday.
  • Environment : High accountability, high pace, high standards.
  • How to apply (show, dont tell)

    Send your resume plus share with 35 bullet points showing how you've improved your lab. No novelsjust the facts.

    Bottom line : This job is for builders, not caretakers. If youre the person who quietly fixes what others tolerateyoull thrive here.

    Job Type : Full-time

    Work Location : In person
