Aligned Order Engineering
A multidisciplinary engineering practice where systems, tools, and people are brought back into alignment — between logic, craft, and purpose.
Purpose
AOEngineering was founded on the belief that technology should serve clarity, not chaos. Our work unites software, embedded systems, industrial automation, and audio design under one guiding principle — to build systems that breathe, balance, and last.
We design and repair systems with intention. Every line of code, every circuit, and every waveform reflects our discipline: alignment through purpose.
Fields of Practice
Software Engineering
From SQL and .NET backends to modern Next.js frontends — designing scalable, maintainable systems that outlast trends.
Embedded Systems
Firmware and sensor logic built for precision and reliability across architectures and real environments.
Hardware & Electrical Design
Circuit integration, diagnostics, and design where the digital meets the tangible.
Audio Engineering
Mixing, mastering, and sonic design — the same discipline of clarity applied to sound.
Industrial Process Automation
Building data-driven systems that help factories think, see, and adapt in real time.
Repair & Sustainment
We prioritize resilience. Before replacing, we restore — keeping systems alive and honest.
Principles of Alignment
Clarity Over Complexity
Every signal should be readable.
Repair Before Replace
Durability is true innovation.
Presence in the Work
Automation assists — intention decides.
Form Follows Function
Design disappears when it’s right.
Signal, Not Noise
Focus on what moves the system.
Discipline Before Scale
Stability precedes expansion.
Origin
Founded by Brandon Workman in Westlake, Ohio — AOEngineering grew from a single engineer’s discipline into a living ecosystem of systems, tools, and culture built on intentional craft.
Brandon’s background bridges software, embedded systems, and audio engineering. His approach treats every build as both technical and spiritual practice — where clarity becomes the operating principle for everything.
Ethos
AOEngineering is not a startup — it is a sacred operating system for building with alignment. We move slowly, design intentionally, and prioritize systems that create lasting impact over fleeting scale.
Every tool, framework, and process we create aims to serve clarity — helping individuals and organizations breathe again through systems that truly work.
Build with Alignment
Whether you need a system built, repaired, or reimagined — AOEngineering helps bring it back to purpose, presence, and performance.
