PCB Design and Assembly

I design and assemble custom PCBs for embedded systems, production devices, and rapid prototypes. My work spans the full workflow - schematic design, PCB layout, component selection, and assembly - with a focus on reliability, manufacturability, and clean design.

My boards are designed with real-world constraints in mind. I understand that components can be difficult to source in the US, and I regularly design hardware that supports domestic prototyping while remaining transferable to larger-scale manufacturing. I work with multi-layer boards, mixed-signal designs, and fine-pitch components.

Assembly is handled both in-house and through small-batch manufacturing, depending on project needs. This includes hand-assembly, reflow, and validation.

These designs have gone from concept to deployed hardware quickly, supporting rapid iteration while still being production-ready.

For domestic prototyping, boards can be designed and ordered affordably in small batches through services like OSH Park. I design PCBs with this workflow in mind, allowing for fast turnaround, easy iteration, and minimal upfront cost.

Depending on the project, boards can be delivered as design files for the customer to purchase and assemble themselves, or they can be returned to me for full assembly, bring-up, and validation. This flexibility allows projects to scale naturally from early prototypes to more polished, production-ready hardware without redesigning the core electronics.
