Working at Laser Ray Tools means doing practical work that keeps fibre and CO2 laser machines earning their keep. We hire people who can think clearly under pressure, work neatly with tools and parts, and deal with real workshop problems in a straight-forward way.

Careers

What Working Here Means

Laser Ray Tools is based in Boksburg, Ekurhuleni and supports customers across Johannesburg, Pretoria, Vanderbijlpark, Durban and Cape Town. Our day to day work is hands-on: stripping cutting heads, checking alignment, replacing worn lenses and windows, and getting machines back into service with as little downtime as possible.

If you want office work only, this is probably not the place. If you like practical problem solving, clean workmanship and being part of a team that treats every machine as production-critical, you will fit in well. We work with job shops, signage plants and metal fabricators, so the pace can be busy and the standards are high.

The Roles We Commonly Hire For

We do not post a long vacancy list here. Instead, we look for people who can grow into technical, support and workshop roles as the business needs change. Some roles are bench based, some are client facing, and some support the flow of parts, repairs and returns. Experience with laser equipment is useful, but good mechanical habits and a strong work ethic matter just as much.

  • Laser technicians for fibre and CO2 systems
  • Field service technicians for on-site callouts
  • Workshop staff for cleaning, inspection and assembly
  • Parts and stores support for tracking consumables and spares
  • Service coordination and admin support

Skills That Help You Succeed

We value people who can follow a process, ask the right questions and keep details straight. Laser repair work often comes down to careful inspection and steady hands, not guesswork. A good candidate also knows how to speak to customers clearly, especially when a machine has stopped mid job and production is waiting.

  • Practical mechanical or electrical aptitude
  • Neat record keeping and fault reporting
  • Comfort using hand tools and basic test gear
  • Respect for workshop safety and clean working methods
  • Ability to travel for local and national site work when needed

We work in South African conditions, so people who understand load-shedding, unstable site power and dusty workshop environments usually settle in well. Coastal humidity in places like Durban can also change how equipment behaves, and that calls for careful inspection, not shortcuts.

How To Apply With Your CV

If you would like to be considered, send your CV through the enquiry form on our contact page. Tell us what role you are interested in and include a short note about your experience with laser machines, tools, or workshop equipment. If you have worked on fibre or CO2 systems before, mention the kind of repairs you have handled.

We review applications internally and contact suitable candidates when a position matches. Please do not send walk-in requests expecting same day interviews, because service work and workshop bookings can keep the team fully occupied.

Where Your Work Makes A Difference

Our team helps restore nozzle seats, replace lenses and protective windows, service sensor rings and ceramic holders, and carry out pressure tests before a machine returns to production. That means your work is tied directly to uptime, quality cuts and less time lost to avoidable faults.

People who enjoy seeing a job through from diagnosis to return to service often do well here. It is satisfying work, and it matters to the customer on the shop floor.

Our Working Style In Boksburg

We keep things practical, organised and honest. If a part needs to be ordered, we say so. If a head needs more than a quick clean, we explain what is involved. That same approach shapes how we treat the team: clear expectations, proper handovers, and support from people who know the trade.

Whether you are based near Germiston, Kempton Park or elsewhere in Gauteng, if you can get to Boksburg and work well with a technical team, your application is welcome. We also look for people who can cope with busy weeks, odd hours when field work requires it, and the kind of pressure that comes with keeping production moving.

Questions we get asked

Do you advertise vacancies with closing dates?

Not on this page. We describe the roles we hire for and consider CVs submitted through the enquiry form on the contact page.

Do I need previous laser repair experience?

It helps, but it is not always essential. Strong mechanical skills, good fault-finding and neat workshop habits can also make a candidate suitable.
