Hiroki Nakayama

PILOT CORPORATION

When Hiroki Nakayama came across the “Automac” – a mechanical pencil made by PILOT – as a student, it was love at first sight. In pursuit of his passion, he joined the company in April 2021 and began working at Shonan Development Center as of June in the same year. As a member of the group working on the exterior design of writing instruments at the Center, he is actively developing new mechanisms by drawing strength from his academic background in machine engineering. His hobby is collecting mechanical pencils, and the all-time great, the “Automac,” remains his favorite among his vast collection. His personal motto is not to lose his “insatiable curiosity.”
