The Work Environment

This is primarily a seated bench role in a repair lab. It requires fine finger dexterity for most of the shift, close-range vision (corrected is fine), and occasionally lifting up to 40 lbs. Probes arrive from clinical use, so you’ll follow biohazard handling protocols. Occasional travel may be required, along with an insurable driving record.
