01 — Who we are

An engineering studio built by engineers, for ambitious hardware.

SYNA Engineering is an independent consultancy providing high-value engineering services — not mass production. We help companies, startups, universities and innovation teams move from an idea to a reliable, validated and manufacturable design.

Founded by two engineers who met building real hardware during their internships at GISTDA, Thailand's national space agency, we combine rigorous mechanical design with simulation-driven validation and fast, iterative prototyping. The result: fewer surprises, faster decisions and engineering you can defend.

  • Simulation-driven by default.
    Every design decision is backed by FEA, CFD or thermal analysis.
  • Prototype-ready deliverables.
    Manufacturing-ready CAD, drawings and documentation, not just slides.
  • An international, research-minded team.
    Comfortable with R&D programs, demonstrators and space-grade rigor.

04 — How we work

A disciplined engineering workflow

Phase 01

Define & explore

Requirements capture, constraints, and multi-concept exploration to frame the right problem before any geometry is locked.

Phase 02

Design & simulate

Detailed CAD developed hand-in-hand with FEA/CFD/thermal analysis, comparing load cases and optimizing iteratively.

Phase 03

Prototype & validate

Prototype-ready models, drawings and documentation, with verification reports that make the design defensible.

05 — The founders

Two engineers. One shared ambition.

SYNA Engineering was born from a four-month internship at GISTDA, Thailand's Geo-Informatics and Space Technology Development Agency — where both founders discovered a local engineering ecosystem they decided to build their future in.

Our story

During four months in Thailand, we discovered an engineering culture and a country we connected with deeply — professionally and personally. SYNA Engineering is our way of building lasting ties with that ecosystem: delivering serious engineering from our bases in France and Thailand, and growing our presence across South-East Asia. What began as an internship became a long-term commitment.

06 — Where we are

One team, two engineering hubs.

SYNA Engineering operates from two complementary bases — Toulouse and Bangkok. From Europe's aerospace capital to the gateway of South-East Asia, we stay close to demanding industries on both sides of the world — two time zones, one continuous engineering workflow.

Europe

Toulouse, France

43.60° N · 1.44° E

The aerospace capital of Europe — home to Airbus and a dense ecosystem of aerospace, robotics and advanced-manufacturing engineering. Our European base keeps us close to demanding industrial partners and EU research programmes.

Aerospace ecosystemEU R&DAdvanced manufacturing
South-East Asia

Bangkok, Thailand

13.76° N · 100.50° E

Our gateway to South-East Asia's fast-growing advanced-manufacturing and space sector — and where SYNA was born, through our work with GISTDA. On the ground in Thailand, we support regional innovation and BOI-driven development.
