Jobbeschreibung

Who We Are

Helsing is a new type of defence and artificial intelligence company. We believe that software - and especially artificial intelligence - will shape our democracies’ future. Our purpose is to attain technology leadership so that democratic societies are free to make sovereign decisions and control their ethical standards.

Our mission is to attract Europe’s best purpose-driven tech talent and apply their capabilities to some of the most complex problems.

We are looking for people with their heart in the right place, who share our conviction that our democratic values are worth protecting, for ourselves and for future generations.

Role

Join our team and use your UX skills to make a real difference. As software and AI become increasingly complex, it's critical to design intuitive and trustworthy applications, particularly for those on the battlefield. We are still at the beginning of our journey. As a member of our team, you will have the opportunity to explore uncharted territories and help set the standard for great UX in AI-based cognitive applications for the next decade. Together, we will tackle complex design challenges and push the boundaries of what's possible with AI and UX design.

Expect

• Impact – You will play a key role in our product development, aiming for big breakthroughs, not just small tweaks. You will ensure that we deliver products that are easy to use, reliable, and ethical – enabling soldiers to use them confidently in the heat of battle.
• Speed and agility – Rather than just writing recommendations, strategies or ideas, you will bring products to life in a matter of months. You will contribute to every stage of the product development cycle, from concept to delivery, leveraging the full range of skills and tools at a designer’s disposal.
• Autonomy and responsibility – Impact comes from doing, not overseeing. You will be entrusted with significant responsibilities and encouraged to define your own challenges in a dynamic, fluid, and challenging environment.

Day‑to‑day

• Generalist product designers, comfortable with all aspects of the design process
• Experienced in early‑stage complex product development or entrepreneurial endeavours
• Comfortable challenging the status quo and building understanding of abstract concepts that lead to solutions
• Strong communication skills, with proven experience in cross‑functional collaboration

Nice to have

• Background in AI, defence/intelligence, or B2B product companies
• Experience with physical or innovative complex products

You Should Apply If

• Are a builder at heart
• Are a seasoned designer craving more hands‑on work, less admin, fewer emails and fewer meetings
• Seek to deliver work that will make a difference in the world
• Have an appreciation of the broad role of product design, and believe it goes beyond drawing pixels
• Have a willingness to lean into uncertainty, and use your skills to help your teammates make progress
• Are a fast learner and have the intellectual curiosity to learn about the many new areas you will be taken into: radar systems, military doctrine, cognitive load, ethics, and so on
• Have personal values which match ours: ownership, initiative, dedication to mission, speed and inclusiveness

Note: We operate at an intersection where women, as well as other minority groups, are systematically under‑represented. We encourage you to apply even if you don’t meet all the listed qualifications; ability and impact cannot be summarised in a few bullet points.

Why Join Us

• You will directly contribute to the protection of democratic countries while balancing both ethical and geopolitical concerns.
• Your work is unique and operates in a domain with highly unusual technical requirements and constraints, where robustness, safety, and ethical considerations are vital.
• You will face engineering and AI challenges that make a meaningful impact in the world.
• Helsing is part of, and often leading, historic leaps forward in the defence industry’s most exciting technological development phase.
• You will enjoy a culture that values responsible autonomy, critical thinking, and outcomes over conformity, and you’ll have a say in how we work.

What We Offer

• A focus on outcomes, not time‑tracking
• Competitive compensation and stock options
• Relocation support
• Social and education allowances
• Regular company events and all‑hands meetings to bring together employees as one team across Europe
