Embedded systems are notoriously delivered late, over budget and bug-ridden.  Heroic efforts are often required to get these monstrosities to market, often leaving the engineering team exhausted and unappreciated.  In a society that is dependent on such systems functioning reliably, we are quickly heading for disaster if we continue to develop products in a hap-hazard, fly by the seat of our pants ways.

At Beningo Engineering, we have decreased costs, delivery time and our bug rates through the development and use of embedded “tinker-toys”.  From a very young age, budding engineers often have an uncanny fascination with tinker toys.  These discrete objects form basic building blocks that can be combined in a nearly infinite combination allowing a child to build anything they can imagine.  Beningo Engineering has built upon this concept by developing intellectual property that allows our engineers to focus on the application at hand and not on the building blocks.

Our driver and software frameworks allow us to use components that have been repeatedly tested and deployed into the field.  This allows Beningo Engineering to jump start our clients’ projects by building upon fundamental and proven technologies.  Our software technologies are supported on most microprocessors and provide a common abstract framework from which the most sophisticated products can be developed.

Beningo Engineerings primary mission is to provide engineering services and products to companies that are in need of a high-quality supplier. Beningo Engineering has the experience to design embedded hardware and software, build prototypes, develop appropriate system tests and bring the system to manufacturing reliably, on-time, within-in budget and bug-free. Quality is the foundation of everything that we do at Beningo Engineering.

Start-ups and Small Businesses - A Baptism by Fire

The primary objective of most job seeking engineers is to find a position that provides long term stability.  They usually look for a well-established company with a proven track record and employ between 100 and 1000 individuals.  These companies provide a structured environment where each person has their own specific job function based on their experience and training.  Very rarely is an engineer required to step outside his area of expertise.  There is a known path for advancement, with known expectations and mentoring that helps progress the engineer through the stages of their career.  All in all, the pace is leisurely due to company processes and paperwork that must accompany every decision and task, resulting in the use of only well known and proven techniques.   ....

Differentiating Yourself as an Engineer

The field of engineering has always been a competitive field to work in but recently with down turns in the global economy and outsourcing of engineering services to foreign companies, our field has become even more so as we compete for fewer and more specialized opportunities. So how can a young motivated engineer rise above the background noise and get the attention of employers? In my experience, there are three primary ways to turn heads; earning an advanced degree, becoming a licensed professional engineer and earning an IEEE professional certificate.

Earning a bachelor’s degree in the engineering field is quickly becoming .... Read More
