A product development partner for founders and teams, from an early concept through working prototypes and manufacturing preparation. Mechanical design, electronics, firmware, and testing connected around your product.
Bring an idea, an existing prototype, or a specific engineering problem. We can develop the product together or focus on the part that needs attention.
Turn requirements into CAD, enclosures, mechanisms, and assemblies. Work through materials, tolerances, and design for manufacturing so the next prototype or supplier conversation has a clear starting point.
Develop circuits, PCBs, sensor interfaces, and firmware together. Bring up boards, connect the subsystems, and debug how the whole product behaves.
Build prototypes that answer specific questions. Define test priorities, measure performance, and use the results to guide design changes and manufacturing preparation.
Understand an existing part, device, or system through measurement, inspection, and testing. Reconstruct the design information needed to improve it or plan a replacement.
Explore uncertain technical approaches with focused experiments. Develop sensor setups, test fixtures, and data capture workflows to evaluate feasibility and support the next decision.
Starting at $1,500
Get a clearer view of what to build, what to test, and where the uncertainty sits. We agree the assessment scope and fee before work begins, based on your product and the questions you need answered.
Tell me about your projectPrototype development, implementation, and other follow-on work are scoped and quoted separately.
Start by telling Randy where the project stands and what you need to learn or deliver. Together, we agree the scope, budget, deliverables, and working rhythm. Work may be hourly or fixed scope, as agreed in writing.
During development, clear written and video updates show what is working, what needs attention, and which tradeoffs need your input. At handoff, we review the results and choose the next step.
