Field Recruiter - $30/hr

What began in 1983 as a focused research and development firm has blossomed into a globally recognized leader in advanced laser technologies and sophisticated electro-optical systems. Fibertek, Inc., born in Herndon, Virginia, embarked on a mission to serve the nation's most critical sectors, providing cutting-edge solutions for military, aerospace, and NASA applications. For over four decades, the company has been at the forefront of innovation, shaping its culture around a steadfast commitment to the success of high-stakes missions. In its early years, Fibertek concentrated on R&D, building a formidable reputation for pioneering work in electro-optics. This foundation of deep technical expertise allowed the company to tackle complex challenges and demonstrate proof-of-principle for advanced diode-pumped solid-state lasers and compact sensor systems.

A significant turning point in Fibertek's journey came in 2005 when it expanded its business model beyond pure R&D to include low-volume, custom manufacturing. This evolution was driven by the need to provide end-to-end solutions for its customers, moving from design and development to the production of flight-ready hardware. This strategic shift prompted the adoption of more robust product lifecycle management systems to streamline processes and ensure the highest quality standards. A landmark achievement showcasing this capability was Fibertek's selection by NASA in 2011 to design and manufacture four spaceflight lasers for the Advanced Topographic Laser Altimeter System (ATLAS) on the ICESat-2 mission. This project, among many others, solidified Fibertek's status as a trusted partner for missions where failure is not an option, from deep space exploration and planetary sensing to national security and humanitarian demining efforts. Today, Fibertek continues to push the boundaries of what's possible, driven by its core values of customer success, employee fulfillment, excellence, integrity, and innovation.
