Electronics Product Development - Australia & New Zealand
We are an Australian and New Zealand based electronics product development firm.
Our mission is helping domain experts turn their tech ideas into real products.
Services we offer span across the entire stack inside a product - from the enclosure/housing, to the internal circuit board design, through to firmware and software apps.
Our process supports and guides clients from idea stage, all the way through to mass production.
Yes.
We regularly help clients through the full product development journey - from early concepts and feasibility through to detailed engineering design, prototyping, testing, and production handover.
Some clients engage us for a single engineering task, while others partner with us for complete turnkey development.
Having great design and engineering skills is nothing special nowadays.
Technology is so powerful, AI has made coding and design faster, and all the information needed to complete a project is out there.
What clients value most with us is our ability to communicate clearly, manage projects properly, reduce risk, and keep momentum moving. We combine electronics, embedded, cloud, and software expertise with structured project delivery, transparent communication, and real commercial understanding - helping projects reach market faster and with fewer surprises.
We treat each product as if it was our own.
We work across a wide range of industries.
Proven products on the market we've developed span across consumer electronics, industrial automation, automotive, rail, mining, agriculture, smart devices, medical/scientific equipment, and connected systems.
Our team develops products involving custom hardware, embedded systems, wireless connectivity, cloud platforms, mobile apps, and edge computing.
No - in fact, clients have a greater chance of success if we help you define the requirements for a product early.
Some requirements may not be feasible, some may conflict with one another (small product size vs long battery life - these are challenging to balance and get right), and some may not be things your end customers/users even value.
Most clients come to us with an idea, problem, or rough concept rather than a complete specification.
Part of our role is helping define requirements, validate concepts, identify technical risks, and create a practical development roadmap before major engineering investment begins.
The first step is a discovery call.
Here, we review your product idea, business goals, and technical challenges. If an NDA is required before the call, we will proactively reach out to organise this based on your needs.
From there, we can help define the scope, recommend the best development approach, and prepare a proposal tailored to your project stage and objectives.

I started Xentronics as a passionate product developer.
Early on, our focus was on helping clients with very specific design and engineering support.
PCB Design and Mechanical CAD.
Firmware and Software Development.
Prototyping, Testing, and Iterating.
As projects became more complex, clients needed support answering these bigger questions:
"Is my product idea even feasible to make?"
"What risks are there, and how do I mitigate them?"
"What technology should I use inside my product?"
"How do I ensure my product is safe and compliant?"
"Where and how will I mass produce my product?"
"What will it take to make my product a success?"
8+ years and 100+ clients later, we now support through every step of the journey with a proven end-to-end process, tailored to each client.

We look forward to working together on your journey.
