Spectra-Physics Rankweil
Highly Developed Precision & Quality

Approximately 100 employees work at the Rankweil facility manufacturing picosecond and femtosecond lasers. In addition to the manufacture of high quality products, our company strategy focuses on sustainable and profitable growth. In order to foster this momentum, we are always looking for committed and motivated members of staff.

Are you keen on high-tech? Are you at home in technical subjects, such as physics, mechatronics, mechanical engineering, electronics, hardware or software development? Have you completed training or are a graduate in a technical discipline or already gained experience with high-tech products? And are you interested in lasers? We are looking forward to your application!

The success of our highly developed products is based on motivated and satisfied employees who, as part of the Spectra-Physics team, support the corporate philosophy. For the company, this means encouraging its employees, supporting them - also with special social benefits - and strengthening its dynamic team with special events and joint activities.

The working environment also plays a key role in well-being. In Rankweil, our employees have access to one of the most modern production facilities in Europe, in one of the most attractive locations between Lake Constance and the Eastern Alps. This unique location in the heart of Europe is just as important for the economic success of the company as it is for the well-being of our employees, who can also take advantage of numerous leisure activities.

The team at Spectra-Physics consists of open-minded, dynamic people who are young or young at heart and have a great passion for high-tech. They are physicists, mechatronics engineers, mechanical engineers, electrical engineers, hardware and software developers. They come from Vorarlberg, Germany, Switzerland, Russia, Poland, Italy, India and other countries. And they have one thing in common: based on their knowledge, on precision and on teamwork they create highly sophisticated technical innovations.

The bachelor degree course in Electronics and Information Technology (dual) combines a degree course at the Vorarlberg University of Applied Sciences (FHV) with practical training in a company. That means that both the university and the company take responsibility for parts of the training.

For you as a student this means:

• You will spend time periods alternately at the university and with Spectra-Physics.
• When you are with us, you will gain valuable experience.
• You start your career while still a student.
• You will receive a salary while still a student.

During the first year you will be given solid basic training at the FHV. Should you have had relevant technical training, for example by passing the "HTL-Matura", you may be able to skip large parts of the first semester – or even start by going straight into the second semester. From the third semester you will be employed at Spectra-Physics and will have a regular income. Possible work areas cover a wide range of electrical and electronic engineering subjects. For your specialist subject at the FHV course you can choose a subject that is associated with the industry of our company, such as Energy Technology or Technical Information Technology.

For further information on the study course, the application deadlines, the application conditions and other details please contact Birgit Scharf, Tel.: +43 5522 82646 182.

We are always interested in helping pupils and students to gain their first work experience with us. We therefore provide internship places and, vacation positions during the summer months and look forward to welcoming young and dynamic people. Are you interested in gaining your first work experience in a modern high-tech company? Apply to open position at www.mks.com/careers.

Are you looking for a practice related subject for your final project? You have good ideas and want to implement them in a high-tech and innovative environment? Contact us at Spectra-Physics – we may be able to help you to find an interesting subject for your final project, thesis or dissertation. Or you can suggest a subject for a project, based on an outline concept, which you would like to carry out with us. One last tip: Involve your mentor at an early stage because he/she has to agree to the selected subject in the end.

As a pioneer in the field of ultrafast lasers, Spectra-Physics develops and manufactures absolutely precise femtosecond laser systems at its Rankweil facility. It is almost impossible to imagine how long a femtosecond lasts — it is one millionth of one billionth of a second. These ultrafast pulses enable processing of sensitive materials and extremely fine structures — almost without any heat generation which would lead to damage and even destruction of the material. Spectra-Physics uses state-of-the-art technology, top quality components and rigorous application testing to ensure that its ultrafast laser systems are absolutely reliable products, which feature these additional benefits:

• Extremely short light pulses with durations of between 40 fs and 500 ps
• Very high peak intensities
• Wavelengths from UV to IR
• From individual pulses to high repeat rates (MHz)
• Designed for 24 hour operation
• Straightforward installation and setting up
• Compact and modular design
• Adapted to specific customer requirements
• Serial production for large lot sizes
