If you're using a systemd-based Debian (like the current shipping version 
of BBB), create a file in /etc/systemd/system/ named example.service (for 
example)

It should contain the following

[Unit]
Description=Example of a service

[Service]
Type=oneshot
ExecStart=/bin/bash -c 'cd /home/example ; python example.py 2> example.err 
> example.out'
TimeoutSec=0
RemainAfterExit=yes

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target


then give the command

systemctl enable example.service


When you reboot, your script will execute.
