FROM HARDWARE TO PRODUCTION

Software that belongs in the real world.

We develop embedded software from hardware interfaces to application behaviour. Commission a complete controller, a subsystem or a defined integration milestone—with the interfaces, verification and handover agreed up front.

EMBEDDED SOFTWARE ENGINEERING

A controller to develop. An integration to finish. A release to unblock.

SCOPE

ECU software & integration

Low-level drivers, hardware abstraction, CAN communication, middleware and control logic. Work can span a complete ECU or a specific layer.

SCOPE

Bootloaders & update paths

Startup, programming, image validation, recovery and application handover. Security requirements are scoped explicitly for the target.

SCOPE

Safety & real-time architecture

Multicore software boundaries, RTOS integration including PXROS, inter-core communication and freedom-from-interference considerations.

SCOPE

Build, calibration & verification

Reproducible builds, CI/CD, calibration modules, supplier interfaces and Simulink integration wrappers. Test evidence follows the agreed scope.

WHAT THE HANDOVER CAN INCLUDE

A result your team
can work with.

Deliverables and acceptance criteria are agreed for your system before implementation begins.

  • A defined software and interface baseline
  • Implemented code and reproducible build instructions
  • Agreed verification results and known limitations
  • Integration and maintenance handover

BEFORE WE START

Useful questions.
Direct answers.

Can you take responsibility for a complete ECU?

Yes. Our experience includes a complete drivetrain ECU software stack taken from initial development to production. Hardware design, independent safety approval and programme-level responsibilities are agreed separately.

Can you work with an existing codebase or supplier?

Yes. Integration work can cover existing drivers, model-based software, communication interfaces, build environments and supplier components. We assess the baseline before committing a delivery plan.

Is this limited to automotive?

Automotive is the strongest published body of experience. The same embedded disciplines can apply to industrial and connected products. New sector requirements are assessed for each engagement.

Do you provide safety certification?

We contribute software architecture and implementation within the programme’s safety process. Independent assessment and certification are separate responsibilities. Experience on ASIL B, C and D programmes is not a claim of company certification.

LET’S GET SPECIFIC

Let’s define the next step.

Share the target hardware, the software baseline, the current blocker and the release date. We establish access and dependencies, then propose a review or implementation package.
