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 team of 90+ engineers, researchers, and defence specialists develops our autonomy and swarm platform, used by both government and industry. Working closely with the Norwegian Defence Research Establishment (FFI) and end users, we move quickly from ideas to field deployment, solving problems where software meets the real world.
The challenges we work on don’t come with existing playbooks. They demand deep technical thinking, close collaboration across disciplines, and the ability to learn quickly as both the technology and the company evolve.
At Six Robotics, every person executes with precision, adapts to changing conditions, and strengthens the team. If you’re excited about building systems that matter and growing alongside talented people that push boundaries every day, you’ll find no better place to deliver real-world impact.
About The Role
At Six Robotics, our product department is built around a clear flow: needs emerge from our customers, are shaped into product features, and are then translated into engineering-ready functionality. As we scale, we are strengthening our Product Team to own this flow end-to-end. This role will build and own the bridge between these domains, ensuring that what we ship is not driven by ad-hoc requests, but by validated needs from the field, strong technical context, and disciplined product decisions.
As a Product Manager at Six Robotics, you will turn complex project needs, field feedback, and long-term strategy into a coherent, executable product direction. This is a hands-on, operational product role at the center of engineering, projects, and real-world UAV operations.
You will help define where our software product, Valkyrie, is going. Defining what gets built, and why, without abstracting away the reality and context the engineering teams need to succeed and understand.
This role is critical in bringing stability, clarity, and long-term focus to how Valkyrie evolves, while still adapting to real-world demands from customers, field operations, and live deployments.
You will work closely with the other Product Managers and report to the Chief of Product, bringing clarity to our Engineering Team Leads, release and project management, acting as the bridge that ensures we build the right capabilities, at the right time, for the right reasons.
What You Will Do
Translate project and customer requirements into actionable product features: prioritize, scope, and refine features so engineering can execute with clarity and confidence.
Shape the product roadmap alongside the Head of Product: contribute to the vision, break it down into a detailed plan, and ensure it drives meaningful, deliverable work.
Bring clarity to engineering to ensure we build the right features: minimize product debt, reduce ad-hoc feature work, and safeguard long-term product quality.
Own operational product execution: track progress, manage priorities, and follow up on releases to keep product development structured and predictable.
Maintain product clarity and coherence: oversee trade-offs, dependencies, and release content to ensure each feature delivers real value internally before reaching engineering.
Validate and refine assumptions in the field: work and test the features with our field teams, to understand real-world performance and feed insights back into product decisions.
What we are looking for
We are looking for someone with exceptional structure and decision-making skills. We believe this person can confidently say no when needed, set direction, and still listen deeply to both the team and the customer. You thrive in ambiguity, bringing discipline and method where things feel uncertain, and you take ownership not just of your own work, but across teams and interfaces. You are comfortable challenging customers constructively, asking why they want something, and translating that into what is actually feasible and valuable for engineering to build. At the same time, you are hands-on, willing to dive into the details when necessary, without ever losing sight of priorities or long-term outcomes.
We believe the right candidate brings
Proven experience working on the development of mission-critical software products, with clear ownership from idea to delivery.
Strong understanding of the full product lifecycle - from requirements and specification to delivery, validation, and iteration.
Strong background in building software products, with the ability to collaborate with engineers while keeping problems concrete and solvable.
Experience in structuring and governing product flow - balancing prioritization, planning, dependencies, and release coordination.
Excellent communication skills, with the ability to translate complex customer needs into clear engineering context, without losing the bigger picture.
A competitive drive and delivery mindset. You care about outcomes, not just process.
Fluency in English (Norwegian not required).
Nice-to-haves:
Experience with UAVs, autonomy systems, robotics, or defence-related technology.
Exposure to hardware-software integrated products or field-deployed systems.
Why you should join
Build at the edge of what’s possible: You’ll work on problems the industry hasn’t solved yet, alongside people who are pushing the boundaries of autonomy, AI, and robotics.
Grow as fast as the company: We believe that chance favours those in motion. The role you’re hired into is just the starting point. As Six Robotics evolves, so will your scope, your responsibilities, and your opportunities.
Work with exceptional people: Surround yourself with people who raise your own standards. You’ll join a team of ambitious engineers and operators who care deeply about the quality of their work. Expectations are high, but so is the willingness to help each other improve.
Ship work that matters. The things you build don't stay in a demo environment. They get deployed, tested, and used where reliability and performance genuinely matter.
Supported by great benefits. Alongside meaningful work, we offer competitive compensation, equity potential, strong pension and insurance plans, gadget budgets, modern equipment, panoramic offices, and the flexibility you need to do your best work.
