IoT & Emerging Tech | Metova: Connected Device Engineering & Embedded Systems

The full stack, from the device to the dashboard.

Connected Device Engineering

End-to-end connected product engineering, firmware integration, device-to-cloud communication, and the cloud infrastructure that makes it all work. We bridge the gap between the hardware team and the software team so neither is building blind.

Fleet Management Systems

Real-time tracking, telemetry ingestion, and operational dashboards for vehicle fleets, equipment, and logistics assets. Built to handle the scale and reliability requirements of enterprise operations, not just a demo that breaks under real traffic.

Embedded Systems & Firmware

Embedded software for resource-constrained environments, RTOS implementations, bare-metal development, sensor integrations, and power-optimized firmware. We write code that runs on the hardware that's actually going into production.

Real-Time Data Pipelines

High-throughput stream processing for device telemetry, MQTT brokers, Kafka pipelines, time-series databases, and the alerting infrastructure that turns raw sensor data into actionable signals. Built for volume spikes, not just average load.

Emerging Tech Prototyping

Rapid prototyping for AR/VR, wearables, computer vision, and edge computing applications. We help you validate emerging tech concepts fast, with production-quality engineering discipline so prototypes don't become technical debt.

Hardware and software,
speaking the same language.

Most IoT projects fail at the integration layer. The firmware team and the app team don't talk, the cloud architect doesn't know the device's constraints, and the dashboard is an afterthought built after the hardware is already locked. We build across the full stack from day one, so every layer is designed with the others in mind.

Protocol-agnostic architecture, MQTT, BLE, LTE, LoRa, Zigbee
Device-to-cloud data pipelines designed for real-world volume
OTA updates and remote device management built in from the start
Cross-functional teams with hardware awareness, not just app developers

Built to survive
the real world.
Not just a demo.

IoT products fail silently. A bug in a web app gets a crash report. A bug in a connected device gets recalled. We build with production edge cases in mind: spotty connectivity, battery constraints, hardware variance, and regulatory compliance.

Security is designed in from the start, not bolted on at the end. That means device certificate provisioning, encrypted OTA updates, secure boot chains, and zero-trust architecture between devices and cloud. Because when your product is deployed in the field, there's no hot reload.

FAQ

Frequently asked
questions.

What types of connected devices do you build for?

We've worked across consumer IoT (wearables, smart home), industrial and enterprise IoT (asset tracking, facility monitoring), fleet and logistics (vehicles, trailers, equipment), and healthcare devices. The common thread: products where software has to talk to hardware reliably, in the real world.

Do you handle hardware design or just software?

We're primarily a software company. We write firmware, build embedded software, and engineer the cloud infrastructure that talks to your devices. For hardware design and manufacturing, we work alongside your hardware partners or recommended vendors, we don't manufacture devices ourselves, but we know how to integrate with the teams who do.

What connectivity protocols and standards do you support?

We're protocol-agnostic and have worked across MQTT, BLE, Wi-Fi, LTE/5G, LoRaWAN, Zigbee, Thread, and CAN bus. We'll recommend the right stack for your power budget, range requirements, and data volume, not whatever we've most recently used.

How do you handle security for IoT products?

Security is designed in from the start, not bolted on at the end. That means device certificate provisioning, encrypted OTA updates, secure boot chains, mutual TLS for device-to-cloud communication, and role-based access on the dashboard layer. We follow OWASP IoT guidelines and can assist with regulatory requirements if your product needs them.

Can you integrate with our existing cloud infrastructure?

Yes. We've built on AWS IoT Core, Azure IoT Hub, and Google Cloud IoT, as well as custom MQTT brokers. If you already have infrastructure in place, we'll extend it. If you're starting fresh, we'll recommend the platform that fits your scale and cost profile.
