From idea to hardware.

I'm Cameron. For ten years I've taken complex electronics designs from concept to mass production — in Tesla vehicles, advanced robotics, e-bikes, and consumer electronics. As an avid maker and hardware founder I've done the full stack (electronics, enclosure, firmware, app development, sourcing). Now I run an independent hardware consultancy, helping a small number of teams ship hardware that works.

services

I help startups and product teams turn rough ideas into reliable hardware. I can help with one critical phase or for the full concept-to-prototype path.

  • PCBA Design
  • Hardware Architecture
  • Mechanical Prototyping
  • Firmware
  • Test & Validation
  • Design Reviews

If you're not sure where to start, send a quick note and I can help scope the right first step.
