Apply to be a Newborn Screening Senior Scientist on the Tuesday-Saturday team!
DGS is seeking two SeniorScientists to work a Tuesday-Saturday schedule for our Newborn Screening Laboratory at the Division of Consolidated Laboratory Services (DCLS). These positions will perform and oversee filter paper blood spot analysis for a variety of genetic and metabolic disorders as required by the Code of Virginia.
Virginia’s Newborn Screening Program is a partnership between DCLS and the Virginia Department of Health to screen each baby born in Virginia for certain rare yet serious metabolic and genetic disorders. Babies with these disorders may look healthy at birth but can suffer devastating consequences, even death, if the disorder goes untreated. The Newborn Screening Group works with various platforms including mass spectrometry, electrophoresis, microfluidics, automated immunoassays, and molecular techniques including polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and sequencing.
As a member of the Newborn Screening laboratory team, the Senior Scientist will support customer service and quality assurance efforts, review analytical results, write, review and update SOPs, train staff, act as a technical specialist and prioritize, schedule and coordinate testing performed by other staff members, as needed. This position will also participate in product evaluations, method validations, and maintain competency according to the agency accreditation requirements. These duties are performed independently with minimal supervision from the Group Manager.

Weekend Senior Scientists are required to achieve time sensitive testing competencies within 6 months of their effective hire date and begin the weekend schedule for which they were hired. Dedicated established NBS Weekend Senior Scientists are required to achieve competence and remain competent in multiple time sensitive testing benches to meet weekend testing requirements. After competencies have been achieved and the incumbent is placed on the weekend shift, the NBS Weekend Scientist’s salary will be adjusted to reflect the additional competencies they are required to maintain in adherence to their assigned dedicated weekend schedule.
We’ve got great benefits!
DGS offers excellent health benefits at affordable pricing, pre-tax spending accounts, paid life insurance, paid Short- and Long-Term Disability benefits, paid holidays, vacation, and other leave benefits, wellness programs, and a state retirement plan with options for tax-deferred retirement savings including employer matching.
