This role is ideal for those looking to launch or grow a career in veterinary diagnostics. While a Science-related degree or experience as a Vet Tech (RVT/LVT) is preferred, the position is accessible to anyone with a high school diploma and a strong attention to detail. It is a high-volume, fast-paced environment suited for someone comfortable with clinical laboratory settings and handling fecal, blood, and urine samples.
This is a permanent, full-time overnight position with a competitive starting rate of $23–$24/hour plus a shift differential. IDEXX offers standout day-one benefits, including 401k matching, an employee stock program, and pet insurance. Unlike many lab roles, they explicitly offer on-the-job training, making this a great entry point for those without direct parasitology experience but a high aptitude for precision.
**You might be a good fit if you...**
* Are a "night owl" looking for a consistent Tuesday–Saturday midnight shift.
* Have experience with microscopy, pipetting, or clinical diagnostic analyzers.
* Can handle the physical demands of a lab, including standing for long periods and lifting up to 50 lbs.
* Want to contribute to animal health by identifying parasites and assisting in veterinary diagnoses.
