At Emlid, we make modern professional geodetic equipment for highly accurate measurements. We develop both hardware and software ourselves, and constantly communicate with our users to gather feedback that inspires us to enhance our products.

Our team is united by a shared interest in research, deep engagement in tasks, and a collective drive for excellence — and we welcome those who share our values and approach to work.

Now we’re looking for a new Mechanical Engineer to join our Hardware team in Budapest.

  • Prepare manufacturing and assembly documentation to ISO standards.
  • Write clear assembly and test manuals with step-by-step instructions and visuals.
  • Prototype and test your designs, analyze the results, and use them to improve the design.
  • Collaborate with our contract manufacturer in China on your projects (e.g., discussing technical options, ordering prototypes), both in writing and on calls, in English.

Requirements:

  • A bachelor’s degree in engineering.
  • 5+ years of experience in mechanical design of injection-molded plastic products, ideally in consumer electronics.
  • Experience working with contract manufacturers in China, including taking products from design to mass production.
  • Solid knowledge of DFM guidelines, 2D drawings, 3D models, and manufacturing documentation.
  • A strong grasp of mechanics and materials science.
  • Good technical writing skills and fluent English.
  • The ability to work regularly from our Budapest office, since you’ll be working with physical products.
