They are the real deal. Not only did they complete everything I asked for to build me a very complicated machine, they constantly added in their own innovations and modifications to improve the performance of the device. It was extremely easy to work with them, and they are extremely professional and true experts in their fields. I proposed many changes during the development of the product, and they were able to accommodate my requests and provide valuable insight if changes werenโ€™t needed or were too costly. They are backed by an engineering firm with specialists in so many fields, so we never needed to outsource work to an outside firm. Their firm felt like a one-stop shop that had all the resources needed to build a complicated mechanical product. I really could not imagine that many other engineer freelancers would have access to the resources needed to build my machine, so I am very grateful I found Muhammad instead of wasting my time and money with other freelancers.

I bring 15+ years of international experience across firmware, hardware, PC-system software, and bespoke applications for embedded systems. I take products end-to-endโ€”from concept and architecture through electronics, firmware, mechanical design, and production. In-house, I handle mid-scale builds (down to 0402 and fine-pitch BGAs) with pick-and-place, reflow, and full validation, source components globally, and coordinate seamlessly with external PCBAs for higher volumes. Instead of juggling multiple suppliers, you get one partner who integrates hardware, software, and mechanics into a cohesive, production-ready solution. If youโ€™re looking to turn an idea into a reliable, manufacturable product, letโ€™s connect.
