Project Manager

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 50+ experts in defence, software, and AI develop Valkyrie, 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. We only hire the best. 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, 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 hiring a Project Manager to help build and improve our structures, governance, and delivery discipline that will ensure our most critical programs succeed. This role is about orchestrating multiple projects with complex interdependencies, ensuring that outcomes are delivered on time, in scope, and with measurable impact.

Great performance in this role means projects that are well-governed, predictable, and consistently deliver value. After six months, success looks like a clear reporting cadence, visible control over program risks, and established trust with key stakeholders.

What You Will Do

• Establish governance structures, decision-making frameworks, and reporting cadence across projects.
• Develop scope, roadmaps, budgets, and resource allocation across multiple projects.
• Drive day-to-day project delivery, ensuring accountability, urgency, and clarity on tasks.
• Facilitate sprint and cadence meetings, adapting to scope changes and re-planning as needed.
• Manage stakeholders directly: clients, partners, and subcontractors, while resolving risks and blockers.
• Further down the line, we expect you to coach project managers and ensure visibility on capacity, dependencies, and delivery constraints.

What We Are Looking For

We are looking for a hands-on project manager with the ability to bring structure to complex delivery environments while still staying agile. You are someone who balances governance with adaptability, who can coach teams, and who takes ownership when problems arise.

• 4–5+ years of experience managing multiple projects.
• Strong governance, planning, and reporting capability.
• Proven ability to manage risk, dependencies, and competing priorities.
• Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills (English/Norwegian).
• Ability to work across diverse internal teams and external partners.

Nice to have:

• Background in tech, engineering, or startups.
• Experience with defence procurement or compliance-heavy industries.
• Familiarity with process-driven, regulation-heavy delivery.
• Demonstrated ownership, initiative, and ability to take charge when needed.

Why You Should Join

At Six Robotics, we are not just building software - we are redefining how unmanned systems operate in the real world. If you are driven by meaningful problems, technical depth, and the chance to shape something from the ground up, you will 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 are bringing modern AI, autonomy, and scalable software into a field that is 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 is still being built - where your ideas, code, and decisions will have a lasting influence.

Work with purpose, supported by great benefits

You will 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

We aim to keep our process short and sweet, but also thorough. As a small team, every hire matters, and we can not afford to get this one wrong.

Here's what to expect:

1. Screening interview with one of our recruiters to get to know you better (30 min).
2. Meet & Greet with someone from the team to learn more about us (60 min).
3. Structured case interview to get to know you even better (90 min).
4. Final interview and a chance to meet with the management team (45 min).
5. Reference check followed by an offer if everything goes well.

We review applications on a rolling basis.

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.
