Electronics Product Design Flow

We turn ideas into fully documented electronics and mechanics— from feasibility through manufacturing.
01

Discovery & Feasibility

Requirements captured, concepts mapped, risks and costs clarified before design begins.
02

System Architecture

High-level system design, BOM, power, and RF budgets thoroughly analysed early.

03

Design & Rapid Prototyping

Schematics completed, PCB layouts milled in-house to confirm fit and interfaces.
04

Prototype & Firmware

Electronic prototypes assembled; firmware for performance, IO, and thermal margins.
05

Engineering Validation & Pre-Production

DFM updates plus EMC, vibration, and environmental tests for production.

06

Pilot Build & Scale-Up

Pilot builds ramp from small lots to batches, optimising yield and rollout.

We Steer Ideas from Sketch to Production.

Our multidisciplinary electronics team solves design, firmware, and sourcing challenges early.

Ryan Haley, P.Eng.

Embedded Systems Engineer – Electronics Engineering Team

Since earning his Electrical Engineering in 2015 from Dalhousie University, Ryan’s dynamic career has spanned the breadth of the ocean technology sector. He has honed his expertise at such innovative companies as Ultra Electronics, Innovasea, and J-Squared Technologies, where he worked with cross-functional teams and made contributions to various high-impact projects.

Ryan’s skill set is extensive and diverse, covering schematic and PCB design, firmware development, Design for Manufacturability (DFM) improvements, low power optimization, IoT device creation, and sensor integration. His ability to navigate the intricacies of electronics engineering has made him a valuable asset in driving innovation and technical excellence at Enginuity.

Ryan prides himself in fully understanding what the customer’s current needs and requirements are, not what has been said or done before. He is often heard espousing the mantra, “If a simplification can remove complexity, cost and risks, then it makes sense to do it.”

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you sign an NDA before we share details?
Yes. A mutual NDA is executed before any schematic, CAD model, or requirements document changes hands. This safeguards your IP and allows both teams to speak openly about architecture, regulatory constraints, and supply-chain considerations from day one.
Can you support near-shoring or on-shoring production?
Yes. Our strong local ecosystem includes multiple PCB houses within three hours driving range. This enable us to build one-off prototypes up to 10 000-unit runs.
Do you provide mechanical design and packaging?

Yes, we have an in house mechanical team that works closely with our electronics team. 

Which industries do you specialise in?

Our team delivers electronics across many sectors—aerospace & defence, product development, smart manufacturing, and marine engineering. We’ve built solutions for medical devices, agriculture tech, deep-ocean systems, consumer wearables, and more. 

Whatever the application—rugged or highly regulated—we design, test, and support the electronics that drive it.

Can you take a product from concept through mass production?
Absolutely. Our team supports you through multiple iterations, managing the entire journey seamlessly—from initial concept to full-scale mass production—with complete transparency and cost control at every step.
Can your team work with existing hardware?
Yes. We frequently re-spin legacy boards to replace end-of-life components, add wireless (BLE 5.x, Wi-Fi 6, LoRa) or integrate MCUs and FPGA accelerators. With reverse engineering, we can generate design files if original files are unavailable.
How is revision control managed?
We manage revision control centrally in a secure repository, maintaining all design artifacts, firmware, and documentation. Each engineering change is uniquely versioned and traceable back to BOMs, Gerbers, and production builds. Additionally, our team can adapt the revision-control approach to align with your internal processes and tooling preferences.
Can you handle RF and high-speed board layouts?

Yes. We have extensive experience in RF layouts and high-speed digital integration—ensuring signal integrity and reliable performance for complex designs.

Do you develop the firmware as well as the hardware?

Yes. Our embedded software group delivers bare-metal, RTOS (FreeRTOS, Zephyr), or Linux BSPs in C/C++. Secure bootloaders, OTA updates, and Python-based test harnesses are included when required.

Do you design the enclosures and handle electromechanical integration?

Yes. We have a strong, in-house mechanical engineering team proficient in SolidWorks, and AutoCAD. We handle enclosures, electromechanical integration, thermal management, and cabling.

Can your products to meet certifications like CE, FCC, UL, ISO or FDA?

Yes. As part of our process we identify the exact code sets—CE, FCC, UL, ISO, FDA, or sector-specific—that apply to your target market. Those requirements drive the design from day one, and we can oversee and guide you through each step of the certification process.

Our engineers have already delivered compliant hardware for medical devices, marine systems, industrial automation, and defence programmes.
