Embedded Systems & Firmware

Firmware is the part of a product that keeps changing after launch. That single fact drives every architectural decision we make: if it cannot be tested, updated and diagnosed in the field, it is not finished.

Architecture before code

We separate hardware access, protocol handling and application logic so that the interesting behaviour can be exercised on a development machine at commit speed. Peripheral drivers sit behind narrow interfaces; the application above them is portable and testable.

Updates are a first-class requirement

Every connected product we ship carries a bootloader with image signing, dual-bank storage and automatic rollback. An update that bricks a fielded fleet is the most expensive possible failure, so the recovery path is designed and tested before the first feature is written.

Power is a measurement, not a promise

Battery life claims are validated on hardware with a current analyser across the full duty cycle — advertising interval, sensor wake, radio transmit and deep sleep. You receive the traces and the arithmetic, not a figure from a datasheet.

Hardware and firmware developed together

Because the same team designs the board, test points land where the debug actually needs them, pin assignments respect both the routing and the peripheral matrix, and bring-up starts the day boards arrive rather than a fortnight later.
