Job description

Senior Software Engineer - Python / Production / Product

Are you interested in joining a dynamic team at a high growth robotics / defense company?

We're working with a rapidly scaling, well-funded company, developing advanced software for aerial robotics, with plans for continued growth this year.

There are multiple teams you may fit into but you could be building and maintain Python based tools, automation frameworks, and internal infrastructure that keep the engineering teams running at high quality. You could be designing end-to-end test suites, work with hardware-in-the-loop setups, and develop the platforms and tooling that other engineers rely on daily, hands-on, high-ownership, or you may sit within the general software engineering team, developing more broadly with Python and working on Linux based projects.

This is a full-time, permanent position based on-site in Oslo, Norway.

Ever considered Norway before? Norway offers a very high quality of life, great subsidized schooling at all levels, great healthcare, tax transparency and fantastic local labour laws and parental benefits.

Salaries will consist of a strong base salary + potential equity and relocation assistance will be provided.

• Python experience. A strong developer, not just scripting but good with applications.
• Comfortable working in Linux heavy environments
• A quality first mindset. You care about building systems and environments that hold up at scale
• Backend systems experience is a strong fit; ML engineers with solid backend foundations and genuine interest in this space are also considered
• Experience with CI/CD, Docker, or similar infrastructure tooling is a plus
• Hardware-adjacent or HIL/test automation experience is a bonus, not a requirement
• Around 4–10 years of professional experience; 3 years considered for candidates with strong HIL or test automation backgrounds
• Must be eligible for Norwegian security clearance
