Product Development
Complete physical products from idea to production. Hardware, software, enclosures, deployment — standalone or connected. One person, no handoff gaps.
Why Work With Me
Timeline & Investment
Complete product using proven platforms (Raspberry Pi, ESP32, etc.). Hardware integration, sensor selection, software, enclosures, documentation. Works for pilot runs, low-to-medium volume production, or proof of concept.
When unit cost matters, you need a specific form factor, or regulatory requirements demand it.
Components and manufacturing billed at cost.
How We Work Together
You describe the problem, I ask questions
Fixed price, clear deliverables, timeline
Regular updates, no surprises
Working system, documentation, source code
What I Cover
Hardware & Sensors
Sensor evaluation and selection, compute platform selection (Raspberry Pi, ESP32, custom PCB), wiring and cabling design, power system design.
Mechanical & Enclosures
3D printed enclosures and mounts (PLA, PETG, Polycarbonate), CAD design for sensor mounts and brackets, aperture and clearance calculations, production-ready 3D print files with BOM.
Embedded Software & Firmware
FreeRTOS, bare-metal C, Linux-based systems, sensor drivers, signal processing and filtering, hit/event detection algorithms.
Application Software
React frontends, Node.js/TypeScript backends, real-time data streaming (SSE, WebSockets), diagnostic and development tooling, kiosk/display applications.
Connectivity (when needed)
BLE, WiFi, LoRa, Zigbee, Cellular. Mobile apps (React Native). Cloud backends. OTA updates. Not every product needs this — I add connectivity only when the product requires it.
Production & Deployment
CI/CD pipelines for SD card image generation, Docker containerization, bill of materials (BOM), assembly instructions, wiring diagrams, kit packaging specs, field testing support.
Prototyping & Tooling
3D printing (Bambu Lab X1 Carbon), soldering and rework, Dremel/rotary tool fabrication, rapid iteration on mechanical parts.

Project Images
Good Fit?
Yes:
- • You need a working product, not a team to manage
- • Timeline: weeks to months, not years
- • Small-medium volume (10s to 1000s of units)
- • Product spans hardware + software (not pure software)
- • You want one person who owns the whole thing
Maybe not:
- • You need ongoing staff augmentation
- • High-volume consumer electronics (100k+ units)
- • You already have a full hardware team and just need one specialist
- • Pure software product with no hardware component (see /apps instead)
Certification & Compliance
Certification work (CE/FCC/RED/etc) is billed hourly, not included in fixed project price. Lab timelines are unpredictable, and requirements vary significantly by product and market.
