Capabilities
Four disciplines,
engineered as one practice.
Connectivity, hardware, sensing, and infrastructure. Brought together under one team
rather than handed off between separate suppliers.
01 / 04 Remote & Connected Systems
Monitoring and reporting hardware for sites without fixed infrastructure. The full stack, from a sensor in the field through to a report a client can actually see.
- Satellite and cellular connected reporting devices
- Low-power design for extended field deployment
- Solar and battery power systems
- Remote firmware update and diagnostics
02 / 04 Embedded Hardware & Firmware
Custom electronics and the firmware that runs them, engineered from the constraint outward. From early concept to a design ready for production.
- Ground-up PCB design, including RF and antenna matching
- Firmware for microcontroller and SiP platforms
- Power management and battery charging systems
- Hardware bring-up, bench testing, field validation
03 / 04 Sensor & Signal Integration
Making difficult measurements reliable. Technologies evaluated against the real physics of the site, not whichever sensor is most convenient.
- Sensor technology evaluation and selection
- Signal conditioning and noise filtering
- Protocol emulation and legacy integration
- Field testing and calibration
04 / 04 Cloud & Middleware Architecture
The infrastructure between hardware in the field and the people who need to see it. Built to run unattended and to scale as the fleet grows.
- Data pipeline and middleware architecture
- Internal dashboards and operator tooling
- Third-party platform integration
- Provisioning and ongoing hosting
05 / Open Not on this list? That does not rule it out.
These four cover most of what comes through the door, but they are not a boundary.
Vertex takes on boutique hardware and custom engineering broadly, including problems
that sit outside any category here. If the brief is genuinely non-standard, that is
reason to get in touch, not a reason to assume it falls outside scope.
