Bhumil Patel

Expert Product Designer with 10 years of experience in new product development. Full stage product development from idea to production. I am expert in schematics and PCB design for low power and RF products for smart home automating using BLE (Bluetooth), WiFi, and Zigbee and also in GSM, GPS for standalone cellular devices. I have advised clients on the complete project management involving design process, concept proofing, prototyping, hardware, software and firmware planning and implementation including web and backend architecture for device provisioning post production for market release.

As an embedded engineer, I perform major tasks during the initial product development such as electronics and firmware design for quick concept validation and prototyping. With new startups launching everyday it is essential for a new product to be introduced into market and grab market share so I ensure that without sacrificing the quality of the product, the prototypes are ready for either crowdfunding or investment opportunities demo.

All of the products created by us are designed with FCC and/or CE regulations in mind making sure that client can proceed with certifications process when desired. I work with range of suppliers and CM inland and overseas for product manufacturing and component sourcing.
