The posting

Your mission

​​​​You will be responsible for producing Menhir Photonics lasers to the highest quality standards. This is a hands-on manufacturing and production role focused on the assembly, alignment, and testing of compact, precision laser systems and small-scale optical components that require fine motor skills, careful handling, and strong attention to detail. It is ideally suited to candidates with practical experience in photonics, optics, precision assembly, or manufacturing environments. You have strong troubleshooting skills and can methodically identify and resolve production and quality issues.

  • After an initial training period, you will be responsible for the independent production of Menhir laser systems.

Required Education

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
