Laboratory Technician

Have you ever dreamed of troubleshooting acoustic analysis code in the morning, guiding graduate students through software training at midday, and running statistics for a manuscript in the afternoon? If that sounds like your perfect day, and you love challenges, we’d like to meet you.

New College of Florida’s Marine Mammal Science group (ncf.edu/mimms) is hiring a Laboratory Technician to help move research from conception to practice to publication.

In this role, you will:

• Contribute to research projects spanning brain imaging, marine mammal cognition, acoustics, and more 
• Support graduate student training in tools, workflows, and best practices
• Assist with manuscripts, figures, and data management with high attention to detail
• Pitch in on lab/field operations (car required for travel to data collection sites), instrumentation, and QA/QC as needed

What we’re looking for:

• Curiosity, initiative, strong interpersonal skills, and calm under pressure
• Experience with (or motivation to learn) coding/scripting, troubleshooting, and documentation
• A collaborative teammate who enjoys learning new methods

Timeline: We will begin reviewing applications on December 1.
