Who We Are

We believe things can always be made better.

We love figuring things out, and for us, finding innovative designs and solutions feels more like fun than work. The more challenging, the more we like it. Even when we come up with a smart approach, we’ll look at ways to improve it.

Our Mission.

To our customers, we strive to deliver top-tier electronics designs utilizing cutting-edge technology. Through efficiency and Odic’s collective engineering expertise, we ensure consistent quality, optimal value, and lasting support for each project.

To our employees, we aim to provide a dynamic and challenging workplace fostering lifelong careers in electronics design, balancing productivity and enjoyment, while respecting and promoting life-work balance.

OUR HISTORY.

Odic Incorporated was established in 1991 for the sole purpose of designing electronics and writing firmware for high tech companies in the Massachusetts area. Over the years, our clients’ mix, needs and locations have evolved, and we have too. We now offer full turnkey design and development, including taking products through to production and the entire lifecycle.

We’ve assisted over 250 companies across the US—a mix of large corporations, startups, and everything in between—so there’s a good chance we can help you, too.

OUR NAME.

Odic is the adjective form of “ode”, which is a song of praise. Odic translates to “like a song of praise”. Chosen by Odic’s original founders, our name represents the values we live by.

One cannot separate ethics from day-to-day work issues

People’s personal lives and families come first

Honesty and integrity should be reflected in everything we do


The Odic Engineer

Rather than drift in a sea of possibilities, thinking and re-thinking this and that detail, we get down to the business of figuring things out, getting something working, and creating a solution.

Every engineer has his or her own unique suite of technical skills. We’re all different. But Odic’s engineers all have certain traits in common:

  • Natural curiosity and always interested in learning something new
  • Ingenuity
  • Dedication
  • Collaborative attitude
  • Self-motivated and curious
  • Passion for making something work

Our Advantages

We start with the 50,000 ft. point of view –
The ability to see the forest through the trees.

We’re not locked into a single solution or approach

Instead, we rely on extensive experience and creative thinking to arrive at the best solutions for each customer’s needs. Having seen many different situations, we’ve developed some pretty impressive analytical skills; we know what questions to ask, and where to look for answers.

The Intersection of Flexibility and Creativity

If we specialize in anything, it’s in being flexible. Because every customer’s situation is different, we offer a wide range of skill sets that allow us to dive into your project at any phase and help where you need it the most.

An Engineering Resource that Saves you Time and Money

With Odic, you’ll have a virtual engineering team available year-round. Because we’re not on your staff, this can be more efficient, as we can complement your existing resources without incurring the costs of full-time employees.

Experience the Secure Feeling of Ongoing Support

When you need support for the work we’ve done, we’ll be here, even after the project is over. We believe in long term relationships which is why much of our business is new work for existing customers.

Once your project is complete, we save and document everything. Even if you require a change 5 years later, you won’t have to start at ground zero to evolve any situation.

Working With Us

Ours is a spirit of collaboration.

Every Odic project benefits from collective experience—ours and yours. We know when to ask each other for help, so even when it appears one Odic engineer is working on your project, you’re actually getting the best of our combined experience.

We also know when to leverage resources within your company—we don’t pretend to know more about your industry than you. This spirit of collaboration enables us to work most effectively, and ultimately provide you with better results.


FAQs

We understand not everyone is comfortable with the idea of bringing in an outside company to work on important projects. We are happy to address these concerns. Here are some common questions people ask. If there is anything thing else you need to ask about, please feel free to call us any time at 978-487-1210.

Since we only charge for time spent working productively on your project, our billable hours are all productive hours. Average in your own employees’ non-productive time over the course of a year, and you’ll see where the savings come from. With Odic, you’ll have a virtual engineering team available year-round that only affects your budget when you have actual work.

Actually, it doesn’t. We come up to speed very quickly. We’ve been put into so many different situations, we know what questions to ask and where to look for answers. You can expect us to contribute to your project from the day we start.

Odic acknowledges that everything we do is yours — after all, you are paying for it. We’re proud of the work we do, so we’re more than happy to share every bit of detail you need. And frankly, we want your repeat business. Our success depends on your satisfaction and trust.

We’re not going anywhere. Long after our work on your project is complete, our staff of full-time engineers will be here when you need support, letting you leverage any knowledge we gained while working together.

We’re happy to sign a non-disclosure agreement with you before we even discuss your project. More importantly, we’re an ethical company, and we respect what is yours and what needs to be kept quiet. We’d be out of business very quickly if we didn’t keep our clients’ proprietary information to ourselves.

We have worked with 250+ companies for over 30 years.

Fresh eyes. Fresh energy. This is what we bring to the table. No matter what you’re making, having a fresh perspective — combined with the right expertise and electrical engineering experience—takes your products to another level.
