Job Description

We are supporting a fast-growing, innovation-driven engineering company in the search for a hands-on Hardware / Electrical Engineer.


We are looking for a practical, factory-oriented engineer who enjoys being close to the hardware, working on complex electromechanical systems, and taking ownership from design through prototyping, testing, and real-world debugging. The ideal candidate is someone who combines strong electrical engineering fundamentals with a “builder mindset” and is motivated by continuous improvement of real industrial products.


The role sits in a compact, highly technical R&D environment within a globally successful industrial technology company operating in the field of robotic pipeline inspection and repair systems.


Apply today!


Main responsibilities:


Control Cabinet Design & Assembly

  • Own the design and physical assembly of custom control cabinets (up to 1m x 1m), ensuring high-quality internal layout, wiring standards, and professional industrial execution.


Electrical Safety & Standards

  • Act as the internal expert for electrical safety, including wire sizing, grounding (EPH), and EMI/EMC considerations to ensure reliable and compliant designs.


PCB Design & Prototyping

  • Design and iterate 2-layer PCBs using tools such as KiCad, EasyEDA, or Altium. Coordinate manufacturing and perform hands-on prototype assembly and rework when needed.


Power Electronics & Drives

  • Design and integrate systems involving high-power electronics (e.g., 80V/10A UV LED supplies, 48V DC servo systems). Work with industrial-grade components and motor drive technologies (stepper, servo, AC).


BOM & Procurement Management

  • Maintain BOMs in an ERP system, source components, and identify reliable alternatives while ensuring full technical compliance.


Testing & Debugging

  • Validate and troubleshoot hardware using lab equipment (oscilloscope, thermal camera, power supplies, etc.), performing root cause analysis across systems.


Documentation

  • Create and maintain electrical schematics and wiring diagrams with high engineering accuracy.


Required skills:

  • University Degree in Electrical Engineering or relevant professional experience
  • Solid understanding of industrial control cabinets, high-power electrical systems, and relevant industrial standards
  • Strong knowledge and practical application of electrical safety standards, including wire sizing calculations, grounding (EPH), and shielding techniques
  • Hands-on experience in PCB design
  • Experience working with high-voltage and high-current power supply systems
  • Ability to select and evaluate industrial-grade, high-reliability components
  • Confident use of laboratory equipment (oscilloscope, thermal camera, multimeter, laboratory power supplies)
  • Strong documentation skills, including the creation of electrical schematics and wiring diagrams
  • Good command of English (written and spoken)


Advantages:

  • Experience in robotics or development of special-purpose industrial machinery
  • Knowledge of embedded systems (ESP32, RP2350, MicroPython/Arduino, Raspberry Pi)
  • Practical experience with industrial communication protocols such as I2C, UART, RS485, and Modbus


What our partner can offer to you:

  • Company laptop and mobile phone subscription
  • Flexible working hours
  • Travel expense reimbursement
  • Group life, accident, and health insurance
  • Modern office environment in Gyál with fully equipped kitchen, community spaces, and additional on-site facilities including a gym and podcast studio.
  • Free company parking
  • Individual training and professional development support
  • Be part of a highly innovative and fast-growing engineering company
