It actually runs inside Docker, on a Linux system, as I've been deploying it using Resin.io for our test units. Annoyingly I've had a couple of units crap out on me, might be a bug in an older ResinOS image that has since been resolved though.
When I get time (eventually) I'm going to be working on our own minimal Linux system for the devices. Really all I want is a device that can be accessed from behind firewalls (looking at Teleport for this with their new ARM support), and the rest can be compiled Rust binaries using upstart or somesuch :)
We do have some upcoming projects where I might get a chance to try writing stuff without an operating system. That'll be an interesting challenge!

OP is talking about more restrained embedded devices. Devices on which there is no docker or even OS. I would not name Pi as embedded device in this context.
