Hardware doesn't die because of bad ideas. It dies because of EMI, thermal throttling, and supply chain ignorance. We engineer for the voltage spike, not the demo day.
Design for EMC compliance, thermal management, and longevity.
Enclosures designed for injection molding, not just fragile 3D prints.
C/C++ for ESP32, STM32. Real-time operating systems (RTOS).
Signal processing on-device. Smart sensors without the cloud lag.
Most startups die here.
"The sensor reads fine on the Arduino."
In the real world, motors create noise and unshielded traces turn into antennas. We use differential signaling and ground plane isolation. We assume your environment is hostile.
"The datasheet says it handles 85°C."
Enclosures trap heat. Processors throttle. Batteries degrade. We run thermal simulations before layout. Heat dissipation is a geometry constraint, not an afterthought.
"I'll just reboot it if it hangs."
You can't reboot a device installed on a ceiling 1,000 miles away. We implement hardware watchdogs and fail-safe bootloaders. If it crashes, it recovers automatically.
"I found this cheap chip on AliExpress."
That chip goes End-of-Life in 6 months. Your product dies with it. We only design with components having a 5+ year lifecycle guarantee and verified distributor stock.
If you are looking for someone to wire up an Arduino shield and 3D print a PLA case, hire a student. If you need a multilayer PCB with impedance control and an injection-molded ABS enclosure, hire us.
I Need Engineering, Not Tinkering
