Hardware & Software Engineering Experts

Deploy the Right Experts When and Where You Need Them

Need a rapid project rescue, long-term partnership, or specialized reusable test cases? Our experts are ready to support your product development lifecycle.

Language-Agnostic, Platform-Agnostic

Our engineers work across LabVIEW, TestStand, Python, C++, C#, and more — selecting the right tool for your architecture, not ours. We're not tied to any single platform or vendor ecosystem.

NI-Certified LabVIEW & TestStand Experts

For programs built on NI infrastructure, we have certified LabVIEW architects, developers, and TestStand integrators with proven experience in PXI, cRIO, and FPGA environments.

Short to Long-Term Assignments

Many of our test & measurement experts and engineers are mobile and can help you finish a project, spec your test requirements or apply Design for Test (DFT) methodologies to a new product. You can even leverage our test engineering expertise from a distance. Evaluate if outsourcing test services is a fit for your company.

Full-Stack Test Engineering Capabilities

Our expertise covers the entire test system lifecycle, architecture, software and hardware development, validation, and optimization, with methodologies adapted to your process: Agile, V-Model, or Waterfall.

We ensure compliance with key industry standards including ISO, IEEE, FDA, and DO-178B, across product phases from R&D to after-market.

Capability 1
Software Engineering

Scalable, modular test architectures built in LabVIEW, TestStand, Python, C++, and more. Code is versioned, documented, and optimized for reusability. Integration covers PLCs, industrial protocols (Modbus, CANbus, Ethernet), pass/fail logic, and MES connectivity.
Capability 02
Hardware Engineering

Our hardware engineers design and integrate NI acquisition cards, embedded processors, smart cameras, FPGAs, and vision devices (USB3, GigE, and IEEE 1394) tailored to the specific demands of your production line.
Capability 03
Validation Engineering

We validate functional performance, reliability, and compliance using modular test benches that replicate real-world conditions. Scope includes environmental and mechanical testing (thermal cycling, shock, vibration, humidity), embedded software validation, and simulation and modeling to reduce physical prototyping.
Capability 04
Quality & Compliance

Engineers apply SPC, MSA, and CAPA methodologies. Documentation supports audits and certification across ISO, FDA, and sector-specific standards in aerospace, medical, and automotive.

Your Trusted Partner from Start to Finish

For larger projects involving multiple Averna specialists, we can assign a single point of contact to streamline your administrative overhead. And we don’t just deliver solutions! We ensure ongoing support and service excellence to keep your projects on track and your products reliable.

Software & Hardware Engineering in Practice

Platform agnosticism means nothing without depth. Here's what that looks like in practice.

LabVIEW for Complex Test Systems

LabVIEW is at the core of how we engineer automated test systems at Averna. Our teams use it to build deterministic, hardware-synchronized applications for high-speed signal capture, full traceability, and production-grade reliability. We build scalable, modular architectures enabling seamless integration with PXI, cRIO, and FPGA targets. Code is versioned, documented, and optimized for reusability across platforms and lifecycles.
Our developers implement proven architectures like queued state machines and producer-consumer loops, and leverage project libraries for clean modularity. Their applications hold up in demanding environments from medical device testing to aerospace and defense test equipment.

Python for Test Automation & Scripting

Python is our language of choice when flexibility, portability, and rapid iteration matter. Our engineers use it for test automation frameworks, embedded software validation, data analysis pipelines, and CI/CD-integrated test scripting. Whether it's replacing legacy scripts, building cross-platform test runners, or processing large datasets from acquisition systems, Python gives our teams the speed and ecosystem depth to deliver without lock-in.

Intelligent Test Automation

Automation is designed not just for speed but for precision and repeatability, reducing human error and unlocking advanced data analytics capabilities. Our systems adapt throughout your product lifecycle, enabling predictive maintenance and proactive quality assurance.
