About Us
Get to know the team behind TuxEmbedded and our mission to deliver excellence in embedded Linux development.
Our Story
Founded in 2018, TuxEmbedded emerged from a simple observation: many companies struggle to find specialized expertise in embedded Linux development for their innovative hardware products.
Our founding team of Linux kernel developers and embedded systems engineers came together with a shared vision of providing high-quality, reliable consulting services focused exclusively on Linux embedded development.
We operate as a globally distributed team with talent across Japan, USA, Poland, and Germany, allowing us to attract the best Linux embedded specialists regardless of location and provide round-the-clock support to our clients worldwide.
Today, we work with clients ranging from Fortune 500 companies to innovative startups, helping them build robust embedded systems for automotive, IoT, industrial automation, consumer electronics, and medical devices.
Our Mission
To empower companies with the specialized Linux embedded expertise they need to build innovative, reliable, and secure products that push technological boundaries.
We believe that open-source technologies like Linux provide the best foundation for creating sustainable embedded systems. Our goal is to bridge the gap between cutting-edge hardware capabilities and the software that brings them to life, ensuring our clients achieve the perfect balance of performance, reliability, and time-to-market.
By leveraging our global talent pool and deep expertise across architectures like ARM, RISC-V, and x86, we're committed to delivering solutions that not only meet today's requirements but remain maintainable and adaptable for years to come.
