Here’s why teams choose us — and why they’re glad they did:
We’ve Been There. And Delivered.
We’ve walked the path from napkin sketch to regulatory approval. With decades in medical device design, we know how to avoid costly mistakes and accelerate the right decisions—because we’ve made them ourselves.
You Work With Experts. Always.
No junior handoffs. No bloated layers. You work directly with seasoned engineers who’ve shipped products, led teams, and solved tough design-for-manufacturing problems across spine, hip, shoulder, and more.
We Build Capability, Not Dependency.
We don’t just give you designs—we teach you why they work. Whether we’re mentoring junior engineers or coaching technical leaders, we help teams grow in confidence and technical clarity.
We Make Ideas Manufacturable.
From additive manufacturing to in-house prototyping, we help you get to a design that works in the real world. Our practical approach avoids overengineering and ensures scalability from day one.
You’ll Never Wonder Where We Stand.
Clients value our clear communication, honest guidance, and collaborative style. We act as trusted thought partners—focused on building great products, not ego or complexity.
Testimonials

They brought clarity to ambiguity, discipline to innovation, and earned the trust of every surgeon they worked with. Their work ethic, technical depth, and quiet excellence made them indispensable.”
“One of the lead engineers was my mentor for the first five years of my career, and the coaching and guidance that I received from her in that time has had a profound positive effect on my career since then. As a newly graduated engineer, she was an excellent teacher for the technical skills required to excel as an engineer including creative problem solving, user oriented design, and robust CAD modeling practices. In addition, she is an experienced guide with respect to project management skills that are critical to engineer design engineer looking to launch new products.
Beyond the technical skills, she also gave me the tools and mindset to excel at the soft skills needed for a successful engineering career. She taught me how to effectively communicate my ideas to senior leadership, my peers, and external members of a design team. She also helped me cultivate a curious mindset where I am able to identify and leverage my strengths as an engineer, while also maintaining an awareness of my areas for improvement. With skills that I developed under her mentorship, I have been able to excel in my career and have successfully designed and launch multiple major product lines for a variety of applications.
Overall, she was and continues to be an amazing resource for me as I continue to make my way through my career as an R&D engineer. She has a wealth of experience, from both a technical and non-technical perspective, and I highly recommend her coaching to any young engineers looking for skills development and career progression.”
