Embedded System Architecture Review
Turn Technical Risk Into
CTO-level clarity — Independent architecture validation across hardware, firmware, RTOS, power, update, security — before production makes changes expensive.
Independent review by a senior engineering leader (CTO/VP Eng background) — translated into business decisions.

SECTION 1 — WHO THIS IS FOR
For Teams Shipping Hardware That Can’t Fail
• IoT and connected device companies
• CleanTech / energy hardware startups
• Pre-production and pilot builds
• Teams with junior embedded engineers
• Products that require OTA updates and field reliability
SECTION 2 — THE PROBLEM
For Teams Shipping Hardware That Can’t Fail
• IoT and connected device companies
• CleanTech / energy hardware startups
• Pre-production and pilot builds
• Teams with junior embedded engineers
• Products that require OTA updates and field reliability
SECTION 3 — WHAT YOU GET (Deliverables)
What You Receive
• Executive Technical Summary (decision-ready)
• HW Architecture Review (interfaces, constraints, risk points)
• Firmware Architecture Review (modules, boundaries, maintainability)
• RTOS / Timing / Scheduling Risk Assessment
• Power & Resource Evaluation (CPU, memory, battery, thermals)
• Boot / Update Strategy Review (OTA, rollback, recovery)
• Security Posture Review (device + comms)
• Risk Register + Mitigation Recommendations (prioritized)
SECTION 4 — HOW IT WORKS (Timeline)
Review Workflow
Kickoff: product goals, constraints, risks, timelines
Review: docs, schematics, firmware structure, interface maps
Assess: timing, resources, update strategy, security posture
Deliver: risk register + fixes + sequencing
Readout: engineering + executive Q&A
Typical timeline: 1 week for review + readout (varies by complexity)
SECTION 5 — FAQ
Q: Do you need schematics and code?
A: Ideally yes. If not available, we can still do an architecture-level assessment using interface specs and block diagrams. Schematic and Code access improves precision.
Q: Will you recommend specific chips/RTOS?
A: Only when needed — and always tied to requirements, risk, and cost.
Q: Can you help with implementation?
A: Yes, as a follow-on engagement.
