This job typically requires:
BS with 2-3 years of experience, MS with 1-2 years of experience, or PhD with 0-1 years of experience.
Ability to run the bio-microfluidics research and development experiments.
Hands-on experimental experience in the bioanalytical testing and maintenance of the electro-mechanical, fluidics, and optical systems.
Ability to iteratively test the new microfluidics designs with reference to the immunoassays, cartridges, instruments, and image analysis tools.
Ability to identify and troubleshoot the bio-microfluidics experimental problems, and effectively communicate the updates within a cross-functional team environment.
Ability to work with the third-party collaborators to test and qualify the instrument, cartridge, and user interface modules.
Strong curriculum foundation or hands-on experience in the automation programming (LabView, Python, C++ etc.), electrical and mechanical instruments/systems, optical systems, fluidic cartridge manufacturing, fluid mechanics, and immunodiagnostics.
On-site position located at our headquarter in San Diego, CA.
Working alongside a wet-chemistry laboratory that processes biological samples.
Working with the team in identification, acquisition and testing of electro-mechanical hardware and software parts needed for the benchtop experimental automation.
Excellent conceptual, analytical, and problem-solving ability.
Strong communication skills, both verbal and written.
Ability to effectively communicate problems, solutions, and updates within a highly cross-functional team.
Ability to work in a fast-paced, deadline-driven, detail-oriented, well-structured, and cross-disciplinary team environment.
