Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada OneWorld Accuracy Inc Full time

In Short
We are a Vancouver-based healthcare informatics company providing services around the world.

We are looking for a local medical laboratory technologist to join the evaluation team which analyzes and maintains our medical laboratory External Quality Assessment (EQA) programs.

If this is interesting to you, please read on.

About us


Oneworld Accuracy is a healthcare informatics company dedicated to improving health outcomes for people around the world by combining cutting-edge data analysis with best scientific practices for medical laboratory testing.

We have 40 employees and provide services in more than 100 countries from our facilities in metro Vancouver, BC and Messina, Italy.


Our principal business is EQA (external quality assessment), which involves providing laboratories and other medical test sites (referred to as participants) with blinded medical samples.

Participants then test those samples like they would patient samples and submit their results on our proprietary enterprise-scale informatics system that we develop, host, continually improve and deploy on a SaaS basis.

Their EQA results are evaluated and participants receive a performance report on their testing proficiency. EQA provides important feedback for participants to improve their testing accuracy and reliability.

We work with many leading clinical, academic and research groups around the world and embed their science in EQA programs that assess, improve and standardize test results.

We invite national groups to own the challenge of achieving testing accuracy in their countries and become EQA providers. We empower them to achieve testing accuracy for their countries. We give them all the tools they need - samples, training and the collective experience of their international peers. We help ministries of health with national EQA programs. We're at 50 and counting.

If they're not ready, then we advance EQA through commercial groups so that ministries of health can get a head start when EQA becomes a public health priority.

We have 15 commercial groups and counting.
