The technician will help set-up and maintain hydroponic plant studies, process samples and collate data. Duties will also involve field sampling of soils and groundwater for microbiome analysis and assisting with bioinformatics and microbiome analysis. Recording, collating and summarizing of data is an expected part of the field and lab work.
