How We Work

One team, the whole device lifecycle.

No handoffs between a hardware shop, a firmware contractor and a separate platform vendor. We carry your device through every stage, under one roof.

Prototype

We take your idea from sketch to a working proof of concept — schematics, PCB layout and a functional first build.

T+01 // BUILD

Build

Hardware, firmware, mobile and cloud software developed together, so every layer of the product actually fits.

Produce

Design-for-manufacture, sourcing and production scale-up — from your first ten units to your first ten thousand.

Monitor

Every device connects to PHD Cloud for fleet health, remote updates and alerts — support doesn't stop at shipping.

What We Build

Hardware and software, from the same team.

Clients trust us to build their prototypes — and rely on us to take those same devices into production and ongoing support. With experience spanning aerospace-grade data acquisition systems for rocket telemetry, secure barcode technologies for intelligence workflows, and specialised interface hardware across multiple industries, our team brings enterprise-grade engineering rigor to every project.

01

PCB & Electronics Design

Multilayer circuit boards designed in Altium Designer by experienced electronic engineers.

02

Mechanical & Enclosure Design

Product housings and mechanical assemblies engineered for real-world environments.

03

Embedded Firmware

Low-power, reliable firmware for microcontrollers, FPGAs and connectivity modules.

04

Cloud, App & Dashboard Software

Mobile apps, web dashboards and cloud services that turn raw device data into something usable.

05

Manufacturing & Production Scale-Up

Design-for-manufacture, sourcing and assembly partnerships to take a prototype to volume.

06

Testing & Certification

Every unit verified functioning, with support through compliance and certification.

Proof It Works

We don't just build IoT products for clients.

We used our own process to design, build and bring our first product to market.

TankDose fuel dosing tank and service van in the field
Featured Project

TankDose V1.1

An automatic, volume-based IoT-enabled fuel additive dosing system — sensing, dosing and remote monitoring, designed and built end-to-end by PHD Devices.

Top Automatic Volume-Based Dosing Device Solution in APAC 2026 — awarded by APAC Energy Tech Review
Recognition

Named a top dosing solution in APAC.

Energy Tech Review Magazine named TankDose the Top Automatic Volume-Based Dosing Device Solution in APAC for 2026 — recognising its patented approach of measuring actual tank volume change, rather than estimating from flow, to hold dosing accuracy to ±0.001%.

"TankDose was purpose-built to eliminate manual dosing, remove operator error, and finally give the fuel-additive industry a technology that matches the precision of modern additive chemistry."— Pauline Horan Dunn, Founder & Managing Director

Why PHD Devices

Fewer handoffs. Faster to market.

01

One team, whole lifecycle

No stitching together a hardware shop, a firmware contractor and a separate platform vendor.

02

Built to scale

From a single working prototype to a full production run, without a redesign in between.

03

Support doesn't end at shipping

PHD Cloud keeps every device online and monitored long after it leaves our workshop.

04

Engineered in Australia

Designed, prototyped and tested in-house in Port Macquarie, NSW — not outsourced piecemeal.
