Comprehensive firmware consulting that goes beyond implementation — from architecture to testing to CI/CD.

Firmware Architecture & Development

System architecture and design are foundational. Good architecture prevents technical debt and makes future changes manageable.

  • System Architecture and Design

    Architectural planning that considers scalability, maintainability, and real-world constraints. Define module boundaries, communication protocols, and state management approaches.

  • Firmware Implementation

    Writing clean, maintainable firmware code following established patterns and best practices. From bare-metal to RTOS-based systems.

  • Code Reviews and Technical Guidance

    Reviewing existing codebases to identify issues, suggest improvements, and mentor team members on firmware best practices.

Testing Infrastructure

Testing shouldn't be an afterthought. Building testing infrastructure alongside firmware development ensures quality and enables confident iteration.

  • Host-Side Testing Frameworks

    Unit testing and integration testing that runs on your development machine. Fast feedback loops without hardware dependencies.

  • Hardware-in-the-Loop Testing

    Automated testing with real hardware. Design test fixtures and frameworks that validate firmware behavior on target devices.

  • Test Automation

    Integrating tests into your workflow with continuous execution. Catch regressions early and maintain confidence in changes.

Development Infrastructure

Good infrastructure makes the difference between shipping firmware confidently or crossing your fingers with every release.

  • CI/CD Pipeline Design and Implementation

    Automated build, test, and deployment pipelines. From code commit to production firmware with validation at every step.

  • Build Systems and Toolchains

    Reliable, reproducible builds that work for every team member. Manage cross-compilation, dependencies, and build optimization.

  • Release Management and Versioning

    Systematic approaches to firmware versioning, release tagging, and deployment. Track what's in production and enable safe rollbacks.

Developer Experience

Developer productivity directly impacts product quality. Good tools and processes make development faster and more enjoyable.

  • Development Environment Setup

    Streamlined setup that gets new team members productive quickly. Containerized environments, reproducible builds, and clear documentation.

  • Documentation and Onboarding

    Documentation that stays current and actually helps. Onboarding processes that transfer knowledge effectively to new developers.

  • Process Optimization

    Identifying and removing friction from your development workflow. Faster iteration means more time solving problems that matter.
