It also means getting the chance to work with and learn from experienced experts and specialists and be a part of the global conversation, with many of our projects led by multinational, multidisciplinary teams working together to meet a shared objective.

Did you know?

Don’t be surprised if you bump into a Nobel prize winner while working at Thales!
Not many companies in the world can boast two winners of the Nobel Prize in Physics: Albert Fert, who discovered giant magnetoresistance with Peter Grundberg, and Gérard Mourou, the inventor (with Donna Strickland) of a technique known as chirped pulse amplification, which creates ultra-short, very high-intensity laser pulses.
