About Six Robotics

We’re a tight-knit team of 30+ people based in Oslo, Norway, combining expertise in defense, software, and AI. As a startup, we move fast, work closely, and value clarity, integrity, and teamwork in everything we do.

Our flagship software platform, Valkyrie, brings advanced autonomy and swarm technology to UAVs, enabling multiple drones to collaborate seamlessly, adapt to complex missions, and perform with greater independence. Partnering with the Norwegian Defence Research Establishment (FFI), we’re at the forefront of UAV innovation, delivering cutting-edge solutions to both government and industry clients.

At Six Robotics, you're not just joining a company; you're joining a mission to reshape the future of autonomous systems. As we grow, we’re building a platform that brings modern software and AI to a hardware-dominated industry, unlocking new levels of performance, flexibility, and accessibility in the air. Whether you're driven by innovation, national impact, or meaningful tech, this is your chance to help build something that matters from the ground up.

You’ll Thrive Here If You...

• Have 5+ years of experience building robust, scalable software in complex, multi-layered systems.
• See software as a lever for solving real-world challenges, especially where autonomy and safety are critical.
• Are energized by greenfield projects, shaping architecture, tools, and direction from day one.
• Thrive on tackling hard problems that push the capabilities of intelligent machines in dynamic environments.
• Want your work to have a tangible impact, enabling more adaptive, reliable, and mission-ready autonomous systems.
• Have a passion or curiosity for drones, AI, autonomous vehicles, or building software that interacts with the physical world.

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.
