Look up an “Engineering Consulting Firm”. They’ll be able to tell you if they can help usually in an hour conversation.

oh cool, this would have been really helpful when i was working on my amateur sports startup. we needed a 2-way, realtime wireless bridge to proprietary (but analog) scoreboards (where accurate timing is important), with future plans of doing realtime tracking of players via both sensors and machine vision (like a dumbed down second spectrum). it seemed like ultrawideband (e.g., apple's U1) was going to be the future in this space, but it's been slow to materialize.

(we didn't get far enough along to seriously look into building a device, moreso trying to cobble together something via a raspberry pi or perhaps arduino)

Electronics consulting is one thing, but software people probably already have a reasonable idea of what is possible/realistic in electronics.

What about, say, optical design?
