Goddard

Goddard is a bi-coastal product development consultancy founded in 1997 that works with MedTech and automation teams to move complex products forward. The firm combines mechanical, electrical, software, systems, controls and human factors engineering with industrial design, offering full-stack capabilities under one roof from concept through to manufacturing transfer. Its client base ranges from growing startups to global enterprises, and includes Arthrex, Smith & Nephew, SharkNinja and Vecna Robotics.

The company operates an ISO 13485 certified quality management system and works across medical devices, robotic systems and industrial automation. Having grown from a small team of engineers into a multi-functional organisation, Goddard maintains engineering disciplines covering product development and manufacturing transfer alongside its core design services.

Through its Goddard ACE (Advanced Collaborative Engineering) programme, engineers embed directly with client teams to supply specialised expertise where it is most needed. The firm describes its approach as moving complex products forward quickly and responsibly, with interdisciplinary engineering and creative industrial design delivered together.
