At NAK Engineering, we transform complex hardware design challenges into innovative, reliable solutions. Using advanced hardware engineering, circuit board design, and mechanical design technologies, our team develops products that are built for performance, durability, and scalability.
From PCB layout design and electrical noise management to component placement, functionality analysis, and system integration, we handle every stage of the hardware development process with precision. We also carefully select materials to balance performance, cost, and durability, ensuring your product meets both technical requirements and manufacturing realities.
By combining deep engineering expertise with modern product design and prototyping methods, we streamline development and deliver hardware solutions that are efficient, scalable, and ready for real-world production.
Developing backend and mobile software for connected devices presents a unique set of engineering challenges. At NAK Engineering, we specialize in building robust software systems that seamlessly integrate with hardware, ensuring reliable communication between devices, applications, and cloud infrastructure.
Our team designs and develops scalable backend platforms, mobile applications, and system architectures that manage device-level operations, process high-volume data, and deliver real-time responses. From device communication protocols to user-facing mobile experiences, we ensure every layer of the software ecosystem works together smoothly.
By combining deep expertise in software development, system integration, and product design, we help clients overcome technical complexity and deliver powerful connected products where hardware and software operate in perfect harmony.
Firmware is the critical layer that connects hardware and software, enabling devices to operate reliably and efficiently. At NAK Engineering, we specialize in embedded firmware development that ensures seamless communication between system components while meeting the performance demands of modern electronic products.
Developing high-quality firmware requires balancing hardware constraints, real-time responsiveness, and long-term system stability. Our engineers design efficient firmware capable of managing device operations, responding to real-time events, and maintaining consistent performance under demanding conditions.
With deep expertise in embedded systems engineering, our team develops firmware that is scalable, secure, and built with future updates in mind. Using modern development tools, rigorous testing, and industry best practices, we ensure that firmware integrates flawlessly with both hardware architecture and software platforms, delivering reliable and high-performance products ready for real-world deployment.
Securing connected and embedded devices presents unique challenges, from preventing device cloning and counterfeiting to protecting sensitive data in the field. At NAK Engineering, we design secure device architectures that ensure authenticity, integrity, and long-term protection.
Our team implements device authentication and certificate-based security systems that establish trusted device identities while safeguarding certificates against extraction or duplication. We also help clients deploy and manage scalable certificate management solutions, ensuring secure storage, lifecycle management, and reliable protection across large device fleets.
Through our expertise in embedded security and secure system design, we help companies protect their products, maintain device integrity, and build resilient connected systems.
At NAK Engineering, we turn challenges into market-ready solutions.
We specialize in device and application testing, secure certificate management,
and device authenticity verification, delivering products that are reliable, secure, and user-friendly.

“I've worked with the NAK team for many years in various different companies. Nick and his team quickly moved from vendor to strategic partner who I could rely on for outstanding support and cooperation. NAK went above and beyond my expectations to help ensure we were making the best product decisions.”
Ben Docksteader Director of Advanced Development Masonite®
“Nick has been supporting Syng since the beginning. With his expertise in startups and electronics development, we were able to successfully launch a high end sophisticated product into the market. Much of our success is thanks to Nick's advice and his ability to deliver. I highly recommend Nick and his team to anyone who want to launch a product into the market.”
Peter Gloria Director of Hardware Systems Engineering Syng
“Nak Engineering's professionals are highly focused engineers who quickly understand the problem at and provide advanced out-of-the-box solutions!”
Mohammed (Mo) Abouelsoud CEO U
“Magvation LLC is a medical device company. We have had excellent experience working with Nak Engineering on our product design and development. Nick Knudson is creative, thorough, and intelligent in his approach toward engineering a new product. He combines knowledge at the electrical design components level with integration of software and firmware development and works well as part of a team. I would highly recommend NAK Engineering for new product development programs that include embedded electronics, firmware and mechanical design integration.”
Mike Koclanes CTO Magvation LLC.
“Nick was a solid performer. Never flustered by what I threw at him and always willing to dive deep to find the solution. He was fun and engaged and genuinely liked the work. It could be mundane bug fixes or new test software all of which he took in his stride. Switching between different languages did not seem to bother him. I would have no problem hiring Nick again, he was fun to work with, was not afraid of learning new things on the fly and demonstrated a good understanding of what it took to get a product in to end users hands that they would like an could use.”
Sean Taffler Ph.D. Founder, CSO Acoustiic
“Nick is gifted. His contributions are in line with someone who has 10 years more experience and has a couple of advanced degrees. Perhaps advance algorithm design is the only area where he is mealy above average. He can work with minimal oversight in new endeavors where the answers really aren't known, figure things out, and at the end of the day produce code that actually works.”
Kenneth W. Parker Tech. Entrepreneur
“Not surprisingly, Nick is focused, he understands his clients and he produces great results. [...] He is destined for success, both professionally and personally, because he strives for it.”
