We are Safe Instrumentación (Bogotá, Colombia). We design a modular data-acquisition system for geotechnical and industrial instrumentation, with four boards: a main "Brain" (STM32G0B1RE, FRAM, LoRa, LTE modem, RS-485, native USB) and three accessory nodes (vibrating-wire VM501C, inclination SCL3400, and a DS18B20 temperature chain of up to 200 sensors). We already have a working prototype. We do NOT need firmware — we develop it ourselves. We need a senior engineer (or firm) to take the hardware to production: Review and optimize the existing schematics Verify and strengthen protections (ESD, surge, EFT; galvanic isolation on RS-485; reverse-polarity/overcurrent) Optimize power management and consumption (seamless mains/battery switching, low-power modes, load-switching of peripherals, power budget per mode) Design the multilayer PCBs (Altium or KiCad) Prepare the boards for CE and FCC certification (using pre-certified RF modules) Deliver full manufacturing files (Gerbers, NC Drill, Pick-and-Place, production BOM with MPNs) Specify industrial terminal blocks, labeled test points, and full silkscreen Full scope in the attached document (English/Spanish). Required from candidates: Proven experience taking designs through CE / FCC labs — please share an FCC ID of a product you designed and/or a CE technical file you prepared, for verification Contactable client references Portfolio of similar industrial/instrumentation work Signature of an NDA before receiving our schematics Please send a fixed-price proposal with milestones.

Hi, I am an embedded systems engineer with over 16 years of experience taking industrial electronics from working prototypes through design review, multilayer PCB development, manufacturing, and compliance preparation. I have extensive experience with STM32 systems, RS-485 isolation, low-power battery architectures, cellular/LoRa modules, sensor interfaces, EMC protection, and production-ready Altium/KiCad deliverables. I can review and optimize all four boards, strengthen ESD/EFT/surge and input protections, validate power budgets and mains/battery switching, complete the PCB layouts, and prepare the manufacturing package with verified BOMs, test points, terminal blocks, and clear production documentation. I would structure the work into milestones: schematic/compliance review, approved PCB layouts, and final manufacturing release. Comparable industrial projects, certification records, and client details cannot be shared publicly, but relevant portfolio material, references, and available FCC/CE evidence can be shown privately after an NDA. Before starting, I would like to review the attached scope, existing layouts, enclosure constraints, layer-count targets, and intended CE/FCC test standards. The posted budget is very limited for four production boards, so my bid is modestly above the range and I am flexible once the actual design maturity is reviewed. Please contact me to discuss details.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Hi Safe Instrumentación, I read your requirements carefully, and this is exactly the kind of project where production readiness matters more than simply making the prototype work. You already have the architecture and firmware covered; the key job is turning the existing hardware into a robust, manufacturable, certification-ready product. I can work through the design systematically: schematic review and protection improvements (ESD, surge, EFT, reverse polarity and overcurrent), RS-485 isolation, power-path optimization for mains/battery operation, low-power modes and peripheral load switching, followed by the multilayer PCB and complete manufacturing package. I’ll also pay close attention to industrial connectors, accessible test points, silkscreen, component availability/MPNs, and DFM so the boards are practical to manufacture and support long-term. I suggest 4 milestones: Schematic and power/protection review PCB layout and design review Certification-readiness/EMC improvements Manufacturing files, BOM and final release package I’m happy to sign the NDA before reviewing the schematics. One important point: I would not want to claim an FCC ID or CE file that I cannot genuinely provide. If those credentials are mandatory for selection, I can share verifiable documentation/references where available. Please send the scope document and I can review it and return a fixed-price proposal based on the actual board count and complexity.

✅✅✅✅✅ I understand you already have a working prototype and need an experienced hardware engineer to take it from prototype to production—not rewrite the firmware. I can review the Brain + three accessory boards as a complete system, focusing on field reliability, power consumption, protection and manufacturability. Particular attention would go to ESD/surge/EFT protection, isolated RS-485, reverse-polarity/overcurrent protection, mains/battery switchover and a measured power budget for each operating mode. I’d also review the 200-node DS18B20 architecture for cable capacitance, pull-up/power strategy and field transients, while checking the RF module integration, antenna/layout requirements and certification-related risks. Proposed milestones Existing schematic/prototype audit + engineering review Protection and power architecture optimization Multilayer PCB design and DFM review Manufacturing package: Gerbers, NC Drill, PnP, production BOM/MPNs, test points and silkscreen CE/FCC pre-compliance documentation support and final design review I can work in KiCad or Altium, depending on your existing files. Once the NDA is in place, I can review the complete scope and give you a fixed price and realistic schedule based on the four-board design.

Dear Client, You already have the hardest proof: a working prototype. The challenge now is turning it into hardware that survives surge/EFT/ESD, field wiring, battery transitions, RF coexistence and certification testing without a redesign after the first lab visit. PCB Must Innovations brings 30+ years of electronics/PCB experience across industrial instrumentation, STM32, LoRa/LTE, RS-485, precision sensors, protection, low-power systems, EMI/EMC, multilayer PCB and production validation. Profiles: https://www.freelancer.in/u/electronicsdone Your Brain + vibrating-wire + inclinometer + 200-sensor temperature architecture is exactly where grounding, isolation, protection and power-domain decisions must be reviewed as one platform. An amateur can make four boards pass DRC and still discover EFT resets, ground-loop noise or modem brownouts in certification. Haha, the EMC lab is an expensive place to learn what the schematic forgot. I’m happy to offer a free consultation first and review the scope under NDA before defining fixed milestones. One question: do you require a publicly verifiable FCC ID from a product the engineer personally designed, or will documented CE/FCC lab involvement and technical-file evidence be acceptable? Message me with that answer and I’ll tell you immediately how I would structure the audit, PCB and compliance milestones. Kind Regards Prat PCB Must Innovations

Okay, I got what you want exactly. I am a Embedded Engineer with 10 years of experience, providing [industrial electronics, STM32, low-power embedded hardware, RS-485, LoRa/LTE, power management, multilayer PCB design, and production documentation. In my opinion, [the key is to treat this as a production-readiness project, not just a PCB redesign. I would strengthen protection and power architecture while keeping RF performance, EMC, serviceability, and certification requirements in mind from the beginning. This project is very similar to my previous works. I have worked on industrial instrumentation and data-acquisition hardware involving STM32, isolated communications, sensor interfaces, wireless connectivity, and low-power operation. I have also taken prototype hardware through schematic optimization, multilayer PCB design, manufacturing documentation, and pre-certification preparation. So, I will divide your project into three major steps. 1️⃣ Review and optimize schematics, protections, isolation, and power architecture. 2️⃣ Design and validate multilayer PCBs with industrial connectors, test points, and silkscreen. 3️⃣ Prepare CE/FCC documentation and complete Gerbers, BOM, Pick-and-Place, and NC Drill files. Via private chatting or meeting, I will provide the creative idea and good tech solution for your project. Best regards. Maksym
