What this means for you: because our engineers write the upstream code instead of just consuming it, issues get fixed at the source, your BSP stays supportable for the lifetime of your product, and you carry less platform risk than with a vendor who only integrates Linux.
Founded in 1996, Linutronix combines deep technical expertise with a strong commitment to open-source development. Our team includes Linux kernel maintainers and embedded systems specialists who actively further the technologies that industries rely on every day.
We provide end-to-end Linux consulting and development services across the entire project lifecycle. From system architecture and board support packages to real-time performance optimization and long-term maintenance, we deliver solutions built for durability and scalability.
As a company, Linutronix is ISO 9001 certified and IEC 62443-4-2 certified, reflecting our commitment to quality management and security.

We make open source a safe strategic choice for industry. Decades-long product lifecycles, compliance, no lock-in — backed by the team that created real-time Linux.
Open Source Leadership
We contribute fixes and features upstream rather than carrying out-of-tree patches, which reduces long-term maintenance burden. We don’t just use open source—we build it.
