From multi-layer PCB design to embedded firmware to certified hardware, we build the connected-device technology that other consultancies wave their hands at.

If you're building a product that connects to anything — a sensor, a gateway, a piece of industrial equipment, a wearable, a medical device — you don't need a strategy deck. You need engineers who can take a brief and ship hardware that works, that meets the regs you need to meet, and that doesn't leave you stuck six months from now waiting on a fix.
Multi-layer PCB design, mixed-signal, RF, and low-power circuitry. Schematic capture through to manufacturable design files. We design for cost, for compliance, and for the test fixture that comes after.
C and Rust on bare-metal MCUs, RTOS where it earns its keep, Linux on the edge. Bootloaders, OTA update systems, and the kind of low-level driver work other firms outsource to people you can't reach.
BLE, LoRaWAN, cellular IoT, Wi-Fi, industrial protocols (Modbus, OPC UA, MQTT). Cloud back-ends and device management when you need them; standalone gateways when you don't.
CE, UKCA, FCC, EMC pre-compliance and full certification routing. EU CRA readiness (we built CRAReady, the SaaS for this exact problem). Documentation, technical files, and test coordination.
Two-week, fixed-fee engagement. We review your existing design (or the gap where one should be), produce a technical assessment, and hand you a costed roadmap.
Fixed-scope, fixed-fee delivery for products with a clear brief. From a single PCB respin to a full hardware/firmware/cloud system, you get one team, one timeline, one deliverable.
Monthly retainer for product teams that need a senior engineer on tap. Code reviews, architecture support, fire-fighting when something doesn't work.
Years of shipping products in regulated and demanding environments means we don't waste your first month learning your domain.
Send us the brief — even a rough one. We'll come back within a working day with a yes, a no, or a question, and never with an "it depends".
