Electronics are integral to products that interface with the real world. Whether through sensing, actuation, or combining both for precision control, electronics allows this to happen.
My consulting services are primarily geared toward smaller companies and start-ups that don’t have a dedicated electronics designer but would benefit from occasional electronics development for products or R&D.
Services
Electrical & PCB Design
-schematic design
-includes electrical requirement calculations, component selection, and schematic creation.
-PCB Layout
-includes PCB routing, which accounts for signal integrity, thermal management, EMI mitigation, and mechanical requirements.
-fabrication, assembly, and validation
-Purchasing of circuit boards with components assembled and personally validated by me to ensure correct functionality.
Validation reports delivered upon request.
All hardware design will be done in Altium.
Firmware & Integration
-Firmware Development
-Experience interfacing with sensors, actuators, and displays.
-Experience integrating with other systems through Wifi, Bluetooth, NFC, and serial protocols.
-Software Integration
-Can provide software applications/ libraries to interface with custom electronics
-App Integration (iOS & Android)
-Experience writing libraries to integrate with custom iOS and Android hardware.
Firmware will primarily be written in C/C++.
Integration software can be written in Python, Java, Swift, or other languages as required.
Reverse Engineering
Sometimes, starting from scratch isn’t always feasible when working with pre-assembled systems.

Packages/Pricing
“One Off Projects”
This includes electronics that are designed for a specific purpose and will require little/no additional work upon completion.
Some examples of this type of service include:
-An evaluation board used for Research & Development
-Small/Simple Circuit Boards
-Connector Boards
This type of project will be priced on a per-project basis instead of an hourly billing scheme. This will allow for better accuracy on how much will be required in order to complete a project
Discounts on services can be offered to first-time clients.
Product Development
This includes projects that require multiple iterations or continuous development.
Some examples of this type of service include:
-Writing firmware that integrates with an adapting software application
-Hardware Product Design that will require multiple iterations to support evolving requirements
This type of project will be billed on a per-hour basis with estimates on how long certain tasks will take.
