About the Role
We are seeking a Lab Technician to support the daily operation of a high-throughput sample preparation laboratory. You will prepare samples, operate laboratory equipment, maintain accurate records, and help ensure consistent, high-quality sample production.
This role is ideal for someone who enjoys hands-on laboratory work, follows detailed procedures with precision, and takes pride in producing reproducible results. You will work closely with scientists and engineers to develop standardized workflows for preparing thousands of unique inorganic and organometallic compounds for advanced materials characterization.

What You'll Do
Prepare samples by weighing, mixing, grinding, diluting, and pressing powders according to standardized protocols.
Operate and maintain laboratory equipment, including analytical balances, mixers, grinders, pellet presses, and related instrumentation.
Maintain complete sample traceability using laboratory databases, barcoding, and electronic records.
Label, organize, and package samples for measurement.
Perform routine quality control checks to verify sample consistency, pellet quality, and preparation accuracy.
Maintain organized inventories of chemicals, consumables, and laboratory supplies.
Follow chemical safety procedures for handling air-sensitive, moisture-sensitive, and hazardous materials.
Document laboratory procedures and contribute to the development and refinement of standard operating procedures (SOPs).
Identify opportunities to improve sample preparation workflows, laboratory organization, and operational efficiency.
Troubleshoot routine laboratory equipment and communicate issues promptly to the engineering and scientific teams.
Maintain a clean, organized, and safe laboratory environment.
