Job Description
Embark on a transformative journey as a Medical Technologist in our Laboratory division, where your precision, curiosity, and passion for patient care come together to strengthen diagnostics, elevate outcomes, and support clinicians across a dynamic healthcare landscape. In this role you will apply your expertise across chemistry, hematology, microbiology, and immunology to deliver accurate, timely results that empower treatment decisions and improve lives. Your work will directly influence patient journeys—from urgent admissions to routine screenings—while you collaborate with physicians, pathologists, and fellow scientists to drive excellence in every sample processed. This opportunity is more than a contract; it’s a chance to shape the future of laboratory medicine in a setting that values rigor, compassion, and ongoing professional growth. And as you carve out your professional path, you’ll be able to enjoy the beauty of New York’s diverse regions—the Adirondack peaks, pristine Lake Champlain shores, and the vibrant towns that define Plattsburgh—places that invite exploration and offer renewed energy beyond the bench.
Location benefits begin with Plattsburgh’s unique blend of small‑city warmth and outdoor allure. Picture working in a community that offers a supportive routine, shorter commutes, and the chance to explore the stunning Adirondack foothills, Lake Champlain sunsets, and seasonal recreation that keeps your work‑life balance vibrant. The area provides reliable amenities, access to cultural events, a thriving local economy, and a gateway to weekend getaways to Montreal and other regional destinations. For professionals seeking breadth, there’s the added opportunity to work across multiple locations within the United States through our program, gaining exposure to varied lab environments, patient populations, and regulatory landscapes while anchored by a core base in New York.
Role specifics and benefits blend daily impact with long‑term growth. As a Medical Technologist on this contract, you will perform a full spectrum of laboratory testing, including specimen processing, instrument calibration, quality control, and result verification, while adhering to CLIA, CAP, and institutional protocols. You’ll troubleshoot analyzer issues, validate complex results, and maintain meticulous documentation, ensuring accuracy and traceability for every patient sample. You’ll participate in proficiency testing, contribute to method validations, and collaborate with clinicians to interpret data within clinical contexts. The position offers opportunities for professional advancement, including cross‑training across specialties, mentorship of junior staff, and the potential to assume lead technologist responsibilities as you demonstrate mastery and leadership. In addition to technical growth, you’ll benefit from a comprehensive package designed to keep you focused and motivated: a competitive weekly pay range of 2,106 to 2,229, a bonus program recognizing performance and commitment, housing assistance to ease transition and relocation, and clear extension opportunities that let you deepen your engagement with the team and the community. You’ll have robust support from our program, including 24/7 assistance while you travel with the company, so you can navigate scheduling, housing logistics, and on‑site needs with confidence and peace of mind. Start Date: 02/09/2026. Contract duration is measured in weeks, with flexible extension options based on performance and project needs, and guaranteed hours set at 0.0, reflecting the dynamic, assignment‑based nature of the role.
Company values place people at the center of progress. Our organization is dedicated to empowering staff through clear career pathways, ongoing education, and a culture of safety, respect, and collaboration. You’ll find a supportive environment that encourages initiative, recognizes expertise, and invests in your professional development—from onboarding and continuing education to formal mentoring and opportunities to broaden your scope within laboratory science. The structure is designed to help you build lasting skills, expand your professional network, and advance toward leadership roles within laboratory medicine.
If you’re driven by accuracy, enjoy collaborative problem solving, and want to make a meaningful difference in patient care while exploring a region rich in natural beauty and cultural vitality, this is your invitation to apply. Join a company that values your expertise, supports your growth, and treats your contribution as essential to delivering outstanding healthcare.
