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.
At Six Robotics, we move fast and build things that operate in demanding, real-world environments. Becoming a leading autonomy company also means being forward-leaning in leveraging the newest capabilities available in the domain of AI. We want to be an AI-native company in the full sense of that word, not just using AI tools off the shelf, but building a sovereign, secure AI stack that enables deep integration across the entire organization, including software engineering.
This will become a key function within our organization.
Your mission is to establish a sovereign AI setup, whether that means building from scratch, adapting an open-source solution, or working with a certified provider capable enough to replace cloud-based frontier models for the organization's core needs
You will be part of a designated AI Enablement function and work closely with the CTO, Head of IT, and the internal DevEx and Tooling team.
Identify and drive bold initiatives for how to leverage AI across the organization
Drive the technical implementation in line with our defense-context compliance and sovereignty requirements, including securing, operating, and documenting the solution.
Build and operate the internal AI stack that other teams can build tools and run services on top of
Lead hands-on implementation across the stack
Conduct internal training and help teams across the company use AI effectively in their day-to-day work
Stay current on new developments in AI and bring the most relevant ideas in-house
We believe you have led a significant AI transformation before, or built an internal AI enablement function from scratch. You know what good looks like and you have the engineering rigor to actually deliver it.
8+ years of experience with a software engineering background, including at least 4 years with direct relevance to AI enablement, MLOps, or applied AI
A track record of leading a meaningful AI transformation, either within a product organization or as the founding AI enablement function
Strong and current knowledge of the AI tooling landscape and LLM ecosystem
Solid engineering defaults: you write code, you design systems properly, and you care about correctness
Experience designing scalable AI platforms, with architecture decisions that balance current needs, future growth, security, maintainability, access control and logging/auditability.
Strong communication skills. You can explain complex technical decisions and arguments in a clear and structured way, to stakeholders who don’t have the same domain expertise
Ability and interest in staying current on AI developments and forms clear opinions on what is worth using and what isn't
Fluent in English (Norwegian not required)
A Master's degree or equivalent practical experience in a relevant field
Nice to haves:
Experience with sovereign AI setups or on-prem LLM infrastructure
Experience with self-hosted compute stacks and GPU infrastructure
Prior experience running internal AI training or workshops as part of a broader rollout
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.
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).
Technical home assignment, ability and personality tests, and a technical interview focused on the specifics of the role (90 min)
Final interview with our CTO and Head of People (45 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.
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.
