Thorlabs Inc Company

Thorlabs, a vertically integrated photonics manufacturer, was founded in 1989 to serve the laser and electro-optics research markets. As that market spawned a multitude of technical innovations, Thorlabs extended its core competencies and now designs and manufactures over 20,000 components, instruments, and systems for a broad-based group of academic, industrial, medical, life science, and defense customers. Our extensive product portfolio spans optomechanics, precision optics, fiber, motion control solutions, detectors, lasers, and imaging systems.

Headquartered in Newton, NJ, Thorlabs has a global footprint of manufacturing facilities and sales offices in 9 countries. Although each office has a distinctive feel, rooted in the community, we are collectively focused on accelerating the forward movement of scientific discovery by providing same-day shipment for stocked items, fast response to customer inquiries, and quick turnaround on custom needs.

As a rapidly growing company, we seek to find individuals who will thrive in a fast-paced environment dedicated to designing, manufacturing, and supporting the tools that enable the next great scientific advancements – all while having some fun doing it! If this excites you, we encourage you to apply!
