Service areas

What we can support.

Six areas where our engineers take on difficult technical problems.

  • Systems

    Systems Engineering

    Requirements, interfaces, and tradeoffs your team can act on.

    We take on the requirements, interfaces, architecture, and tradeoffs behind a system.

    Typical work

    • Requirements and interface definition
    • Architecture and trade studies
    • Integration plans and decision documents
  • Aerospace

    Aerospace & Robotics

    Flight structures, efficiency, and reliable UAV systems.

    From structural design to aerodynamic and thermodynamic efficiency, including upgrades to older, inefficient components and systems.

    Typical work

    • Structural, aero, and thermal efficiency
    • UAV behavior and mission logic
    • Sensor integration, stability, and field reliability
  • Manufacturing

    Manufacturing & Process

    Repeatable processes and builds that come out right.

    Repeatability, process controls, failure reduction, quality planning, and handoff documentation.

    Typical work

    • Process controls and quality planning
    • Failure mode reduction
    • Project management for new facilities
  • Prototyping

    Large-Format Additive Prototyping

    In-house prototypes before you commit to manufacturing.

    In-house 3D prototype printing that helps teams validate geometry, communicate intent, and reduce uncertainty before final manufacturing.

    Typical work

    • Concept models and fit checks
    • Tooling aids and fixtures
    • Educational hardware and early mockups
  • Automotive

    Automotive & Motorsport

    Efficiency on the road, lap time on the track.

    Vehicle efficiency from aerodynamics to layout to structure. For race teams, a faster car across every system.

    Typical work

    • Aerodynamics, packaging, and structure
    • Suspension and power output
    • The human factor: car and driver tuned as one
  • Integration

    Cross-Domain Support

    The whole stack, not just the easiest piece.

    When a project spans energy, propulsion, materials, sensing, electronics, and software, we work the whole stack, not just the piece that’s easiest to isolate.

    Typical work

    • Energy and propulsion
    • Materials and sensing
    • Electronics and software
Manufacturing process and industrial automation

Engagement types

Three ways in when the internal path has stalled.

When a problem has resisted internal effort, choose the level of involvement that fits your team, timeline, and appetite for hands-on help.

  1. Advise

    We work alongside your engineers, recommending approaches, experiments, and directions to try, so your team drives the solution.

    Best when

    • Your team will do the work but wants expert direction
    • You’re choosing between several approaches
    • You want experiments designed before committing
  2. Solve & Present

    We take the problem in-house, develop the solution, and present the results back to you as a complete, documented package.

    Best when

    • The problem has stalled internally
    • Your team lacks the time or in-house expertise
    • You want a tested answer, not just a recommendation
  3. Project-Manage

    We run the solution for or with your company, owning scope, workstreams, suppliers, and delivery from definition through handoff.

    Best when

    • The work spans several disciplines or teams
    • You need one owner for the plan and delivery
    • Your team needs to stay focused elsewhere

Project scoping

Engineering and prototype work is quoted by scope.

We do not publish a one-size-fits-all rate sheet because corporate and prototype work depends on the request. Some projects need a short technical review. Others need CAD cleanup, design-for-print review, prototype printing, assembly, testing, documentation, or ongoing engineering support.

Early direction

Initial technical review

Best for feasibility checks, file review, technical direction, and deciding whether a larger project is worth quoting.

Physical validation

Prototype printing

Quoted by file readiness, material, size, print time, setup complexity, finishing needs, and delivery timeline.

Engineering time

Design and systems support

Estimated by engineering hours when the work involves CAD cleanup, design review, problem solving, testing, documentation, or technical integration.

Combined path

Prototype + engineering package

Best when a project needs both design support and physical iteration. We define the scope before work begins, then provide a written quote or estimate.

Before work begins, bubble provides a written quote or estimate outlining expected scope, prototype requirements, engineering time, assumptions, and next steps.

Next step

Bring the problem. We’ll define the scope.

Tell us what you are building, what is unclear, and whether you need engineering support, prototype printing, or both.
