Training as a physics laboratory assistant / laser builder

The TOPTICA Photonics SE is an internationally leading medium-sized high-tech manufacturer of laser systems for science, biotechnology and measurement technology with over 500 employees worldwide. High motivation and self-responsibility in the service of the customers are characterized by the company philosophy of the privately run 'Hidden Champion', which is shared by the employees with great commitment. The customers include well-known industrial companies as well as numerous Nobel laureates. In our production we build lasers individually according to customer requirements, not on the conveyor but in series, in high quality. There is a lot to learn and especially nice TOPTICAns who support you in vocational training. Because laser construction requires very special skills and knowledge, we form our laser design masters of the future. On September 1, 2026 we offer open-minded and learning-loving students a Training for the Physics Laboratoryin / Laserbaumeisterin You've always wondered if and how to build a laser sword? Are you interested in the magic of light, want to understand optical applications like the Face ID on your mobile phone and also find quantum computers totally exciting? Then this training job is just right for you. As a physics laboratory at TOPTICA, you will learn the independent assembly and commissioning of our innovative laser systems for customers from research and industry in our production factory. In so-called cleanrooms or cleanrooms, we show you the assembly of our assemblies as well as the optical adjustment and measurement of lasers. For the construction of the TOPTICA lasers we use special tools and instruments such as oscilloscope or polarimeter. Since our lasers are very sensitive technical devices, you work in special clean room clothing that does not charge electrostatically. During your training, your supervisors will teach you their knowledge in classical physics, electronics, electrical engineering and assembly. After successful training, you have made the first step to the Laserbaumeister and have the opportunity to work in a crisis-proof company in the long term.
