Conclusive Engineering

Conclusive Engineering is a Poland-based embedded systems specialist founded by Wojciech Kloska and Jakub Klama, both veterans of Cadence Design Systems, iXsystems, and Silicon Valley startups. The company designs and manufactures embedded firmware and hardware for industrial, automotive, medical, IoT, and defense applications. They operate on a full-IPR-transfer model, providing complete source code and design file ownership to clients, and accept projects at any stage—from concept through production and obsolescence management.

The team consists of senior engineers with particular depth in FPGA design, high-speed digital interfaces, Linux kernel work, and real-time operating systems. Kloska is an FPGA specialist with experience in high-speed interfaces; Klama is a FreeBSD committer since 2011 and open-source contributor since 2007. Leadership includes Marcin Nowakowski (VP Business Development), Radosław Adamczyk (technical leader on automotive ECU software and cybersecurity), and other senior embedded engineers spanning wireless, IoT, and DevOps.

Services and capabilities

Conclusive Engineering's service menu spans the full embedded stack. On the firmware side, they develop for microcontrollers, microprocessors, low-power devices, and FPGAs across multiple architectures (ARM, RISC-V, x86-64, PowerPC). They work with bootloaders (U-Boot, Tianocore EDK2, Coreboot, and others) and operating systems including Linux, FreeBSD, Android, QNX, FreeRTOS, and Zephyr RTOS. Device driver development covers PCI Express, Ethernet, USB, SATA, SPI, I2C, audio, and video protocols. They also offer board support package (BSP) development, application-layer and middleware software, and hardware bring-up—taking a powered-on prototype through validation to production-ready state.

Hardware services include custom PCB design and manufacturing, electronic prototyping, and hardware optimization. They can handle the entire prototyping lifecycle from schematic capture and layout through component sourcing, rapid assembly, and board-level testing. Conclusive also manufactures electronics end-to-end (EMS), working with European-based partners and offering no minimum order quantities. Their hardware testing uses a Teledyne LeCroy Wavemaster SDA 8330HD oscilloscope for compliance testing, signal integrity analysis, power analysis, and failure investigation.

Specialized services include FPGA design and development (RTL, architecture, integration, verification), cybersecurity hardening for both firmware and hardware, functional safety compliance (ISO 26262, IEC 61508, EN 50128, IEC 62304, MISRA standards), and edge computing with AI/ML acceleration. They support NXP microcontroller ecosystems, offer FreeBSD kernel and userspace services, and develop IoT and Matter-standard smart home devices. They also support OpenBMC ecosystem services and Qt-based cross-platform applications.

Notable work

Conclusive's client base includes 3D Systems Corporation, where they delivered an integrated hardware and software platform for biomanufacturing and tissue engineering equipment deployed globally. A dental products company noted that Conclusive engineers suggested improvements outside their expertise, resulting in a product exceeding initial requirements. Clevon AS (a software architecture firm) cited the team's flexibility, responsiveness, and openness to changes, with successful delivery of all required components and designs.

How they work

Engagement models include time-and-materials, fixed-price, and hybrid alternatives. Conclusive emphasizes no vendor lock-in: they standardize on open-source libraries where feasible, use industry-standard interfaces and protocols, provide full IPR transfer with comprehensive documentation, design for modularity (allowing component replacement without system-wide impact), and avoid restrictive contract clauses. Communication and project customization are handled through direct consultation with the engineering team.

Team and credentials

The company is led by Kloska (CEO, FPGA and electronics expert) and Klama (CEO, software developer and FreeBSD committer). Team size is not explicitly stated in the source. The company emphasizes senior-level expertise; named engineers include Marcin Nowakowski, Marcin Jabrzyk (senior software engineer), Mateusz Gancarczyk (senior embedded engineer, wireless focus), and Radosław Adamczyk (technical team leader, train ECU and cybersecurity specialist). No formal certifications (ISO 27001, SOC 2, GDPR) are mentioned in the source. The team operates from Poland and actively contributes to open-source (Klama's FreeBSD involvement is noted). English-language communication is implied but not explicitly stated.

They manufacture and sell hardware products directly, including the ETH-1000-T1 Automotive Ethernet Media Converter (bridging 1000BASE-T and 1000BASE-T1, supporting PoE and USB Type-C power, 84 x 47 x 26 mm form factor) and custom single-board computers and system-on-modules via an online store.
