Frykin Industries is an engineering and manufacturing consultancy I founded in 2022. It’s where the software half of my work meets the hardware half.

What it does

• EV conversion electronics — custom PCB drive controllers communicating over CAN bus for electric-vehicle conversions.
• Advanced 3D printing — a working additive-manufacturing facility for prototyping and production parts.
• Reverse engineering — recovering and re-modeling legacy automotive components in Fusion 360 when no drawings survive.

Why it matters to me

Two decades of platform engineering taught me how distributed software systems behave. Frykin keeps me honest about the physical layer — tolerances, signal integrity, the parts of a system you can hold in your hand. Hardware doesn’t let you paper over a bad design with a retry loop.

It is a side venture, not a day job — but it is the most direct expression of how I like to work: find a hard problem, learn what I don’t know, build the thing.
