ABOUT SIX ROBOTICS

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 70+ 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.

ABOUT THE ROLE

We are building autonomous drone systems designed to operate in demanding real-world environments, and systems like these must be

secure by design.

Six Robotics is establishing a new Hardware Enablement capability to support one of the most important challenges in the company:

scaling and accelerating how we integrate, test, and deploy on new hardware and sensor platforms. This team is responsible for

bringing our autonomy software onto new drone hardware at scale, developing the edge platform and system integrations required for

industrial quality deployments at scale.

We are now hiring an experienced security-focused Software Engineer to play an important role in shaping security across our edge

platform and embedded systems.

You will work close to hardware, Linux, embedded software, and production deployment workflows, ensuring that every product

offering is resilient against compromise, tampering, and operational attacks.

You will be the first dedicated security specialist in this domain at Six Robotics, with the opportunity to shape our approach all

the way from ideas, architecture, to long-term direction.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

You will work hands-on and cross-functionally, collaborating across engineering teams to design and drive security solutions

end-to-end.

Key responsibilities include:

Design end-to-end security solutions across our tech stack.
Hands-on delivery of production quality Software Engineering deliveries
Identify vulnerabilities and drive remediation together with engineering teams
Act as engineering stakeholder toward internal and external penetration testing teams
Participate in hardware design discussions to ensure security is considered early
Establish pragmatic security practices that scale to production volumes
Serve as the internal advisor and technical authority on security-related decisions

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR

We believe this role fits an experienced engineer who combines software engineering rigor with strong security expertise and

enjoys bringing solutions all the way to end users.

You are pragmatic, collaborative, and capable of translating complex security concepts into robust and maintainable software

designs.

You thrive in environments where the scope is broad and evolving, and where new challenges can emerge. Rather than operating

within a narrowly defined security domain, you are comfortable contributing across disciplines and helping shape how security is

integrated across the platform.

We believe the right candidate brings

5+ years of software engineering experience
Strong experience with Linux systems, preferably embedded Linux
Experience securing embedded or edge devices (hardware + software interaction)
Solid understanding of cryptography fundamentals and practical encryption use
Experience with key management, authentication, or secure provisioning
Experience identifying vulnerabilities and guiding remediation efforts
Understanding of networking and modern security principles (e.g., zero-trust concepts)
Ability to work across teams and influence technical decisions
Strong communication skills and ability to explain security trade-offs pragmatically

It is an advantage if you have

Experience working with penetration testing teams or security assessments
Experience with secure boot, TPM, or hardware root-of-trust concepts
Experience working in a scale-up environment and/or with robotics, drones, aerospace, or similar domains
Experience supporting production deployment or device fleet management
Experience with device build systems (e.g., Yocto, Nix, containerized workflows)

WHY YOU SHOULD JOIN

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.

OUR RECRUITMENT PROCESS

Screening interview with one of our recruiters to get to know you better (30 min)
Meet & Greet with someone from the team to learn more about us (60 min)
  • Case assignment and personality/ability test, to be solved in your own time, followed by an in-depth interview more closely

related to the specifics of the role (90 min).

Final interview with our CTO and Head of People (45 min)

Reference check followed by an offer if everything goes well.

We consider applications continuously, so don’t hold off with applying if this looks interesting.

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.

Security Clearance Requirement

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.
