Medical Technologist (MT / MLS) — Night Shift

Full-Time/On-Site

Monday - Friday

A night shift that actually works for your life: the same five nights every week, every weekend off, and no rotating schedule. If you’re a bench-strong Medical Technologist who does your best work when the lab is focused and the phones are quiet, this role was built for you.

Why This Night Shift Is Different

Set schedule, zero rotation. Monday through Friday, 11:30 PM to 7:30 AM, a fixed, predictable schedule you can plan your life around.

Every weekend off. Your weekend is truly yours, no Saturday call-ins, no rotating weekend coverage.

Real autonomy. Nights are when our highest-volume PCR work runs. You’ll own the bench, make the calls, and see your impact by sunrise.

Direct patient impact. Overnight results are what let providers act at the start of their day — your shift is the reason patients get answers faster.
