Hardware Product Development

Multi-disciplinary engineering,
from prototype to production.

Mechanical, chemical, electrical, firmware, IoT. Bay Area-based, distributed-team execution. Concept through mass production and distribution.

A small team. A wide capability stack.

RAD Engineering is a Bay Area hardware product development and engineering consultancy. We cover the full stack from mechanical and electrical design to firmware development, sensor integration, and cloud connectivity.

Our team brings over 10 years of collective experience in new product introduction, taking concepts through prototyping, EVT/DVT, and into mass production. We partner with manufacturers and other engineering firms to bring new hardware to market.
