Student Veterans of America Jobs

Welcome to SVA’s jobs portal, your one-stop shop for finding the most up to date source of employment opportunities. We have partnered with the National Labor Exchange to provide you this information. You may be looking for part-time employment to supplement your income while you are in school. You might be looking for an internship to add experience to your resume. And you may be completing your training ready to start a new career. This site has all of those types of jobs.

Here are a few things you should know:
  • This site is mobile friendly. You do not need a log-in or password to access information.
  • Jobs on this site are original and unduplicated and come from three sources: the Federal government, state workforce agency job banks, and corporate career websites. All jobs are vetted to ensure there are no scams, training schemes, or phishing.
  • The site is refreshed daily to remove out-of-date content.
  • The newest jobs are listed first, so use the search features to match your interests. You can look for jobs in a specific geographical location, by title or keyword, or you can use the military crosswalk.

Position Summary

The Batut Lab investigates the genetic sequences and molecular mechanisms that regulate gene expression during development.

Genes are often controlled by regulatory elements scattered over vast genomic regions, and we study how 3D genome organization helps establish specific regulatory interactions at the right time and place. Additionally, these regulatory elements are often themselves transcribed, producing non-coding RNAs that can also regulate gene expression. We study these mechanisms through a multidisciplinary, quantitative approach that combines state-of-the-art genome engineering, functional genomics, and single cell live imaging to visualize the molecular events of transcription in living embryos.

The lab just opened in January 2024, and we are looking for highly motivated individuals to join us in creating a vibrant, collaborative, and welcoming environment! The new technician will independently manage reagent ordering, prepare buffers and media, and maintain the lab's Drosophila collection, and will work closely with other members of the team to support a range of ongoing projects in the lab.
