Quality Technician, Augusta, Georgia, Full-time, Contract
Manus works across industries and value chains to accelerate the transition to BioAlternatives - better performing and more sustainable versions of complex molecules traditionally sourced from plants, animals, or fossil fuels. Our platform is proven to work across scales, bridging the Valley of Death between lab and manufacturing more efficiently and more reliably to deliver the benefits of biotechnology today.
Manus is seeking a detail-oriented Quality Technician (Contractor) to support day-to-day quality control (QC) testing and quality assurance (QA) plant audit activities at our food-ingredient manufacturing site. Working under the direction of the Quality team, the technician performs sampling and routine analytical and in-process testing, documents results accurately and assists with GMP and food-safety audits across the plant. This is a hands-on role well suited to someone with strong attention to detail, sound documentation discipline, and a genuine commitment to safety and quality.
Why work at Manus:

  • Routine testing - Perform routine QC and in-process tests (e.g., pH, moisture, density, conductivity, appearance) and basic instrument checks.
  • Documentation - Record and verify results accurately in logbooks / LIMS and promptly flag out-of-specification (OOS) results to QC staff.
  • Environmental monitoring - Support environmental monitoring (EMP) and ATP sampling and the associated documentation.
  • Lab readiness - Maintain lab cleanliness, calibration and reagent logs, supply inventory, and instrument readiness.
  • Sample handling - Assist with retain-sample management and stability-sample handling.
  • Good practice - Follow Good Laboratory Practice (GLP), GMP, and all safety requirements.

Quality Assurance (QA) Audit Support
  • Audit walkthroughs - Assist QA in conducting GMP and food-safety walkthroughs and audits across the plant.
  • Findings capture - Complete inspection checklists, capture findings and photos, and compile audit observations.
  • Corrective actions - Support documentation of corrective actions and follow-up verification.
  • Records - Help maintain audit records, logs, and the master sanitation / inspection schedule.
  • Audit readiness - Support preparation for customer, third-party, and regulatory audits.

Required Qualifications
  • High school diploma or equivalent; Associate's degree or B.S. in a science discipline preferred.
  • 1+ years of experience in a QC, laboratory, or quality role - ideally in food, beverage, pharmaceutical, or chemical manufacturing.
  • Familiarity with basic laboratory testing techniques and instruments.
  • Strong attention to detail with accurate documentation and record-keeping.
  • Ability to read and follow SOPs and to apply GMP and food-safety practices.
  • Basic computer skills (data entry, spreadsheets); LIMS experience a plus.
  • Good communication skills and the ability to work effectively within a team.

Preferred Qualifications
  • Associate's degree or B.S. in chemistry, biology, food science, or a related field.
  • Experience in cGMP / FSMA, HACCP, or GFSI (SQF / BRC) environments.
  • Hands-on experience with environmental monitoring, ATP, titrations, or HPLC sample preparation.
  • Exposure to audits and CAPA documentation.

Scope & Working Conditions
  • Engagement - Contract position (initial term [6-12 months], with potential to extend); hourly, non-exempt.
  • Reporting - Reports to the [QC Supervisor / QA Manager] and works alongside the on-site Quality team.
  • Location & schedule - On-site in Augusta, GA; may require shift or weekend coverage based on production needs.
