    We are unlocking the potential of our planet's unexplored biodiversity to build sustainable solutions with our biotechnology partners whilst demonstrating the value of our world's undiscovered biology.

    At Basecamp Research, we pride ourselves on being a diverse, exciting, fun, and flexible place to work. We are a team of biologists, data scientists & explorers united by a sense of adventure and the belief that nature has already designed the solutions to our planet's greatest challenges - we just have to go out and discover them

    The lab team works incredibly closely with the data team to optimise our approaches, so you will have ample opportunity to learn about the samples that you are working with, and to directly contribute to the broader aims of the company.

    If you are a lab technician excited by samples from glaciers to geysers, hydrothermal vents to savannah soils, and by joining a network of collaborators working with these samples around the world, then you will love the challenges that Basecamp Research has to offer.

    Work closely with key members of the lab and data science teams to ensure that this is well communicated.

    Record all data and results in specified forms (paper and electronic) with accuracy and responsibility.
    Inventory management and tracking in our HQ lab.
    Help maintain equipment and uphold good laboratory practices in the HQ lab.

    Help manage, organise, and track environmental samples and DNA collected by our team and partners from around the globe.

    Conduct experiments under defined conditions to verify/reject various types of hypotheses using refined scientific methods.
    Proven experience as Lab Technician or relevant position.
    Experience in operating electrical and nonelectrical laboratory equipment and potentially dangerous substances (flammable liquids, infectious bacteria, biohazards etc.).
    Excellent data and result record keeping skills.
    Knowledge of Oxford Nanopore (ONT) sequencing and data management.
    Degree in biology, chemistry, or relevant field.
    Enthusiastic to optimise laboratory systems and develop new protocols. Experience with electronic lab notebooks.
    Working experience with ONT platforms.
