Quality Control Assistant – Microbiology Support 📍 Location: On-site
🕒 Schedule: Monday – Friday, 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM
💲 Pay: $19/hour
📅 Note: Occasional short weekend visits required (30–60 minutes) to check incubated samples.

Are you detail-oriented, curious about microbiology, and looking for a hands-on role in a clean, highly controlled environment? We’re hiring a Quality Control Assistant to help with microbiology testing and product labeling in a healthcare-focused setting.

This is a great opportunity for someone with some biology experience (even a class in college!) who thrives on organization, follows instructions well, and understands the importance of cleanliness in a lab or healthcare environment.

Key Responsibilities

Microbiology Support

  • Collect environmental samples from production rooms to test for microbial growth.
  • Incubate and monitor samples using lab equipment.
  • Identify different microbial growths using basic tools (e.g., magnifying glass, visual inspection).
  • Circle and document unique growths, pack samples, and send to a third-party lab.
  • Track and manage paperwork through the full testing process.

Product Receiving & Labeling

  • Unbox received materials and complete basic documentation.
  • Apply approval stickers and store materials in proper locations.
  • Operate specialized label printing software (training provided).
  • Ensure labels are accurate (correct dosage, product information, etc.).
  • Monitor and track printed labels; ensure proper storage.

Cleanroom Environment

  • Work in a sterile, controlled setting — similar to prepping for a medical procedure (not as extreme, but attention to cleanliness is critical).
  • Gown properly and follow all hygiene protocols.

Who You Are

  • Detail-oriented and highly organized — this is a must.
  • Comfortable working in a clean, structured, and regulated environment.
  • Some exposure to biology or microbiology (college course or lab experience is great!).
  • Background in healthcare, pharmaceutical, or compounding is a plus but not required.
  • Able to follow procedures exactly and take ownership of routine tasks.

“You don’t need to be a microbiologist — just someone who can follow steps and stay organized. A lot of this is teachable.”

Why This Role is Unique

  • Stable Monday–Friday schedule, with occasional short weekend visits due to testing timelines.
  • Clean, hands-on work in a regulated, meaningful industry.
  • Team will train you on specialized equipment and procedures.
  • Great for someone starting out in lab support, microbiology, or quality control.

Apply today if you're ready to join a team that values precision, cleanliness, and care in everything they do!
