WHAT WE DO
Shaping the next generation of manufacturing.
DHR was founded to meet the evolving demands of modern metalworking and precision manufacturing. In an era where automation, flexibility, and speed are no longer optional but expected, we recognized the need for execution-focused engineering partners who can deliver tailored solutions fast. Today we build and integrate custom automation systems across industries of national importance — helping clients scale output, reduce costs, and eliminate repetitive tasks without adding headcount.
Full-Stack Engineers
Hardware/software development & integration - all in-house.

Fast-moving hardware startups trust our team to deliver automation that scales — without wasted cycles, bloated budgets, or unnecessary complexity.
“The DHR Engineering team has been an outstanding partner in our drill rig automation project. From the beginning, their technical skill and practical, cooperative approach stood out. In just six months, they designed, built, and deployed in the Nevada desert a custom, weather-resistant robotic rod-handling unit capable of continuous 24/7 operation. As a startup still building our R&D team, DHR’s support was crucial in keeping us on schedule during a demanding hiring phase.”
