UK Hardware & Medtech Engineering Studio
Full-stack engineering from concept to production — electronics, firmware, embedded systems, mechanical design, and AI. Based in the UK, delivering globally.
What we build
Schematic capture, component selection, PCB layout, and design for manufacture. From single-board concepts to complex multi-layer systems.
Bare-metal and RTOS development for microcontrollers and SoCs. Sensor integration, communication protocols, and real-time control.
Enclosures, assemblies, and mechanical systems toleranced for production. Designed for real-world manufacture, not just demonstration.
Full NPI process ownership from prototype to production launch. We've taken products through military-grade standards and market release.
Design and validation of instrumentation for hazardous environments. Industrial gas detection, calibration systems, and safety-critical control.
Edge AI deployment, companion apps, dashboards, and cloud backends that communicate with your hardware. Built to scale from prototype to production.
Hardware and electronics design for medical and life sciences applications. From precision dosing mechanisms and drug delivery systems to instrumentation for clinical environments.
Hardware and firmware engineered to meet EU Cyber Resilience Act requirements. Security built in from the design stage, not retrofitted after launch.
Selected projects
Embedded electronics design and system integration for an automated beverage dispensing platform. Sensor, actuator, and peristaltic pump control within a fast-paced startup environment.
Design and development of a 6-channel hydrogen sulphide sensor calibration system. Safety-critical instrumentation for industrial gas detection applications.
Full product lifecycle on a defence-grade closed-cup instrument — system design, custom PCB, NPI ownership, and market launch. Operational from -30°C to +50°C. ASTM D6450 compliant.
Full hardware and electronics design, -30°C to +420°C temperature control, prototyping, validation, verification, and production handoff.
Conversion of commercial hardware into a precision PID temperature controller for fuel and petroleum sample conditioning. Electronics design and iterative prototyping.
Concept development and feasibility study for an autonomous fire suppressor deployment mechanism. Safety requirements definition and release mechanism engineering.
Engineering involvement in a precision volume calculation system for an oestrogen delivery pump. Dosing accuracy and reliability for a hormone therapy medical device application.

Why we exist
We started Surcey because too many great ideas stall in the gap between concept and working hardware. Founders with a vision but no engineering team. Researchers with results but no product. Labs with grant funding but no manufacturing knowledge.
We close that gap. We've delivered across defence instrumentation, industrial safety systems, automated hardware startups, and precision control — always end-to-end, always accountable for the outcome.
We're based in the UK and take on a small number of projects at a time. Every client gets the team's full attention.
How we work
We start with your challenge, not our solution. A focused session to map constraints, requirements, and what success looks like.
System architecture, component selection, schematic review, and a project plan with real milestones. No surprises later.
We build in sprints, showing you working hardware at each stage. Firmware, electronics, mechanical — iterated together.
Full documentation, manufacturing files, and supplier relationships. Your product leaves us ready to scale.
Why Surcey
Electronics, firmware, software, and mechanical under one roof. No handoffs, no coordination overhead, no gaps between disciplines.
We have hands-on experience in medical device hardware — including precision drug delivery systems. We understand the accuracy requirements and documentation standards that medical applications demand.
We've delivered military-grade instruments and safety-critical calibration systems. If we can build that, we can build your product.
We've owned products from napkin sketch through to market launch. We understand manufacturing tolerances, supplier relationships, and what production-ready actually means.
We take on a limited number of projects. When you work with Surcey, you're not a ticket in a queue — you're working with the people who own the outcome.
