We design for real-world connectivity—linking your product to PCs, custom LCDs, industrial control systems, and cloud-based platforms.
Whether you're creating a new IoT device, an industrial automation controller, or a wearable electronic product, our team can assist from initial concept and schematic capture to PCB prototyping, firmware development, and final product testing. We are fluent in embedded platforms such as STM32, ESP32, Atmel AVR, ARM Cortex-M, and work with real-time operating systems and Linux-based embedded environments.
Our electronic design capabilities are complemented by compliance with globally recognized standards. We develop to the following IEEE and IPC standards for quality, reliability, and consistency in both prototyping and production stages:
Our CTO, Luke Cole, brings extensive experience in applied robotics and GPS-based automation systems. He previously worked as a "Robotics Engineer" at Hemisphere GPS, where he developed auto-guidance solutions for agricultural vehicles such as tractors and quadbikes.
Luke also contributed to advanced location-tracking technologies during his time at Location Aware Technologies (433), developing indoor positioning systems for commercial and industrial use. He has worked on cutting-edge research projects for Australia's most prestigious institutions, including NICTA, CSIRO, and the ANU Robotics Systems Lab, led by Prof. Alex Zelinsky.
Lance Cole has also worked at NICTA and brings deep experience in high-reliability hardware development. He previously worked for a defense technology contractor building advanced military systems, including contributions to the EOS project, where he helped engineer components for the Common Remotely Operated Weapon Station (CROWS) used by the US military.

This is a sample of public feedback from a broader range of client work.
I was grateful to find Luke Cole at COLETEK in the early days of an invention idea. He was very patient and generous with information to guide me along the way. And even though I did not preceed with my project, I would still recommend his services. Thank you.
As the proprietor a DIY environmentally pest control products business I have been more then impressed with COLETEK's design capability and professionalism in assisting to realise an idea into reality. From concept, CAD drawings, 3D modelling, alterations right through to the finished product. I am extremely happy with our new termite control product. I have no hesitation in recommending COLETEK's services.
I have been working closely with COLETEK for the past 6 years now, and I must say, it is a success story :-). I highly respect their team, they are a pleasure to work with and top skilled professionals. In addition to their top Technical service, their customer service is brilliant and it is a rare find. Their PCB repair rework skills are top notch and a rare find in this industry. I have been working in the IT industry for the past 20 years in various fields and seen it all so I can say with certainty that they are the best around and I am looking forward to keep working with them in the future.
COLETEK have provided one to one communication throughout the development process and gone above and beyond in bringing our ideas closer to becoming a reality! Luke's expertise and knowledge with computer software and electronics is Jedi like, but what I liked most about working with him was his willingness and ability to think outside of the box.
Over five years, we've partnered with COLETEK to deliver a sensational end-to-end product. Their expertise across hardware and software development has streamlined and expedited our project to market, achieving great success.
I recently discovered COLETEK after I accidently managed to fry the PCB on my hard drive. The drive contained 13 years worth family photos and wasn't comfortable sending it off where it could be damaged more or lost in the post. After spending hours researching and emailing different data recovery companies, I decided on COLETEK. Luke was very helpful and let me know the estimated costs up front, and was able to quickly do the repairs necessary to get my drive running like new again. I was able to back up the whole drive and the bill ended up cheaper than the original quote. I can highly recommend them and have already sent a friend to get their drive repaired too.
Intuitive, innovative & efficient are three words that would appropriately describe the COLETEK service. Luke and the team at COLETEK have taken our concepts to the next level.
