About the role

The Agricultural Research Service (ARS), Plains Area, National Bio and Agro-Defense Facility in Manhattan, KS, seeks personnel to support high-containment research on zoonotic and emerging pathogens by conducting laboratory experiments, preparing samples, and maintaining specialized equipment. You will apply immunological techniques and analyze biological materials while adhering to safety guidelines and collaborating with a multidisciplinary team to advance critical bio-defense projects.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
