Job description

Six Robotics develops intelligent software for unmanned systems. Our flagship product, Valkyrie, enhances UAV capabilities with advanced swarm technology. Partnering with the Norwegian Defence Research Establishment (FFI), we lead in UAV innovation, delivering scalable solutions for both industry and government.

Technical Writer & Documentation Engineer

At Six Robotics, you're not just joining a company; You're joining a mission to reshape the future of autonomous systems.

At Six Robotics, we’re transforming how unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) operate, making them smarter, more capable, and easier to manage. Our mission is to revolutionize unmanned systems through intelligent software solutions that are scalable, reliable, and built to deliver real-world impact.

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.

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.

We’re a tight-knit team of 20+ 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.

Your Role : Build the Future of Documentation

At Six Robotics, we believe world-class technology deserves world-class documentation. As we scale Valkyrie, our autonomous drone swarm platform, we’re making an early and intentional investment in how users understand, adopt, and succeed with our products. That’s why we’re hiring our first Technical Writer & Documentation Engineer to build a scalable, intuitive, and user-centered documentation system from the ground up.

This role goes far beyond writing manuals. You’ll design and implement a living documentation platform ,  combining structured guides with live data, interactive tools, embedded testing, and dynamic content, to make Valkyrie clear, accessible, and reliable for mission-critical users.

You’ll become a Valkyrie superuser, translating complex systems into clear, actionable resources. In the early stages, you’ll also work directly with customers to support onboarding and gather insights that improve both the product and the documentation. As we grow, you’ll help shape our Customer Success and Field Application Engineering functions, and define what great technical communication looks like at Six.

What You’ll Do

  • Design, build, and maintain a modern documentation platform for Valkyrie using tools like Sphinx, with custom integrations as needed.
  • Develop and manage content enriched with live data, interactive tools and 3D visualizations.
  • Enable multi-format publishing (web, PDF, localized versions) with automation and version control for consistency and scale.
  • Collaborate with engineers to ensure documentation stays accurate, testable, and aligned with the product.
  • Act as a superuser and early field expert, supporting onboarding and gathering insights from key users and partners.
  • Help define documentation standards and contribute to the foundation of our future Customer Success and FAE functions.

Who We’re Looking For

We’re looking for someone who’s already operated technical documentation systems, and who thrives in ambiguity. You’re not just a writer, you think in systems, understand software deeply, and love building from zero. You know how to turn sprawling, technical complexity into clear, structured, and user-friendly documentation. You’ve likely worked in startups or other high-velocity environments and bring a hands-on, pragmatic mindset. As the first hire in this function, you’re excited to define standards, solve edge cases, and lay the groundwork for a scalable documentation practice.

To thrive in this role, you likely bring a combination of the following :

  • Experience as a senior-level engineer or technical writer, having worked with documentation systems end-to-end.
  • A “docs as code” mindset, you’re fluent with Git, CI / CD pipelines, automated testing, and structured data.
  • Comfort working across the software stack, with the ability to script, prototype, or build lightweight tools when needed.
  • Familiarity with dynamic documentation and integrating live data from external systems.
  • A strong sense of structure, clarity, and usability, always advocating for the end-user perspective.
  • Motivation to build something from scratch, with full ownership of both process and platform, and the vision to scale it into a function.
  • Bonus : You enjoy engaging directly with users, not in an ongoing support role, but through technical onboarding, training, and feedback loops that help shape both product and documentation quality.

    Why You Should Join Six Robotics

    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.
  • 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’t afford to get this one wrong.

    Here’s what to expect :

  • 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).
  • Structured case interview to get to know you even better (90 min).
  • Final interview and a chance to meet with the management team (45 min).
  • Reference check followed by an offer if everything goes well.
  • If you have any questions about the role, feel free to reach out to celine@sixrobotics.com. We look forward to hearing from you!

    Please note : We are kicking off the recruitment process now and will keep it open throughout the summer. We review applications on a rolling basis, but due to upcoming holidays in July, it’s unlikely that we will finalize the process before the end of June.

    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.
