Senior Software Engineer, Developer Platform

At Six Robotics, we build intelligent software that gives Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) the ability to collaborate, adapt on the

fly, and execute missions that were previously impossible. From our base in Oslo, our 90+ experts in defence, software, and AI

develop our flagship autonomy and swarm platform used by both government and industry. In close partnership with the Norwegian

Defence Research Establishment (FFI), we move fast from concept to live deployment, often in the field alongside end users.

We work with advanced hardware and software, a modern tech stack, and missions that demand both technical mastery and operational

discipline. Everyone is close to the action, from deep technical problem-solving to field operations. We move fast and value

clarity, integrity, and teamwork in everything we do.

At Six Robotics, every person executes with precision, adapts to changing conditions, and strengthens the team. Getting in is

hard, and you’ll be challenged every day. But if you have the skill, the discipline, and the drive to push your limits and always

be sharpening your blade, you’ll find no better place to deliver real-world impact while collaborating and learning from the best

in the field.

At Six Robotics, we know that achieving our mission requires more than great engineers; it requires an exceptional engineering

environment. You will be part of our Software Factory team, which builds and evolves the systems that shape how engineering

develops, validates, and ships our autonomous systems. Software Factory is built just as much for where we are going as for where

we are. Most engineers have seen early technical decisions that looked reasonable at the time later become slow, fragile, or

difficult to change.

We are building our engineering system deliberately so that this does not happen to us. Your customer is engineering. You will

work on the opinionated layer that ties our engineering environment together: how the monorepo is structured, the interfaces teams

use to define how their software is built and validated, how CI behaves, and how the underlying infrastructure supports all of it.

Rather than simply operating common DevOps tooling, we build abstractions, services, and workflows on top of proven technologies

so that they fit the way Six Robotics develops software.

Python serves as a common layer across much of this system, alongside technologies such as GitHub Actions, Docker, build systems,

package management, Kubernetes, and on-premise infrastructure. We care about robust engineering defaults: tools that make good

practice the easy path, surface problems early, and hold up as the organization grows.

You might come from backend engineering, data engineering, platform engineering, DevEx, DevOps, or something else entirely. What

matters is that you enjoy writing robust software, thinking about systems as a whole, and building tools that other engineers rely

on.

Software Factory has broad leverage across engineering. A small improvement in a shared interface, workflow, or tool can remove

friction for many teams. That is much of the appeal of this team: the things you build shape how engineering works across the

company.

• Strong software engineering fundamentals, with proficiency in Python or another language. Most importantly, you should be

motivated to work extensively in Python

At Six Robotics, we're not just building software - we're redefining how unmanned systems operate in the real world. If you're

driven by meaningful problems, technical depth, and the chance to shape something from the ground up, you'll find your place here.

• Work on problems that matter

Our technology helps unlock smarter, safer, and more adaptable UAV operations in defense and industry, solving real challenges

with direct, tangible impact.

• Lead the shift in a hardware-dominated space

We're bringing modern AI, autonomy, and scalable software into a field that's long relied on rigid, pre-programmed systems, to

change how UAVs are designed, deployed, and managed.

• Build from zero, shape the future

Join early and help define the core systems, tools, and culture of a company that’s still being built - where your ideas, code,

and decisions will have a lasting influence.

• Work with purpose, supported by great benefits

You'll be part of a mission-driven team that values clarity, integrity, and collaboration, offering competitive pay, equity

potential, strong insurance and pension plans, and ongoing learning opportunities.

We aim to keep our process short and sweet, but also thorough. As a small team, every hire matters, and we can’t afford to get

this one wrong.

Here is what to expect:

3. Take-home case assignment, to be solved in your own time, followed by a live coding session and an in-depth interview on the

case and the specifics of the role (90 min)

Our Commitment to Inclusion

At Six Robotics, we are committed to creating a workplace built on respect, integrity, and collaboration. We value different

perspectives and experiences, and we believe that diversity within our team strengthens both our work and our culture. We

encourage all qualified candidates to apply and help us build technology that makes a real impact.

All employees at Six Robotics are required to undergo a security clearance due to our close collaboration with the Norwegian Armed

Forces. While prior clearance is not necessary, the clearance process will be initiated as part of onboarding.
