What we offer
Blue Ocean Robotics is a visionary company with an untraditional and strong business model based on exclusive and strategic partnerships between major industrial companies and Blue Ocean Robotics. We have a solid long-term goal, we believe in ourselves, we have a strong will to achieve success, we are profitable and we have great faith in our own abilities. We get recognition and are positively confirmed in the market and from our partners. We have a solid value proposition to offer - both for our partners, our partners' customers, our employees and for our role in society at all - and for our owners.

However, we are also constantly challenged; We are a young company in the growing age who has a lot to learn and yet to develop. Our organization changes frequently with related pressures on employees, processes, tools and so on. Markets and specific technologies develop unpredictably and require us to act resolutely. The demands of our deliveries on quality, productivity and costs are rising steadily. And now we are in a transition phase where we go from having more strings in our business model to now only have one strand centered on RoBi-X altogether.

We simply need you to see yourself taking part in such a young business and being part of creating the robotic solutions and developing the business.

In Blue Ocean Robotics we have an international working environment. Right now we have 27 different nationalities and represent almost all of the world's religions.
