About Helsing

Helsing is a new type of defence and artificial intelligence company. We believe that software – especially AI – will shape democracies’ futures. Our purpose is to attain technology leadership so that democratic societies can make sovereign decisions and control their ethical standards. We are looking for people who share our conviction that our democratic values are worth protecting for ourselves and future generations. Our mission is to attract Europe’s best purpose‑driven tech talent and apply their capabilities to some of the most complex problems.

Role

Join our team as a UX Designer to make a real difference. As software and AI become increasingly complex it is critical to design intuitive and trustworthy applications, particularly for those on the battlefield. You will explore uncharted territories, help set the standard for great UX in AI‑based cognitive applications for the next decade, and tackle complex design challenges while pushing the boundaries of what is possible with AI and UX design.

Expectations

Impact – You will play a key role in 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 & Agility – You will bring products to life in a matter of months, contributing to every stage of the product development cycle, from concept to delivery, leveraging the full range of skills and tools available to a designer.

Autonomy & Responsibility – At Helsing, impact comes from doing, not overseeing. You will work in a dynamic, fluid, and challenging environment where you, as an individual contributor, are entrusted with significant responsibilities and encouraged to define your own challenges.

• Generalist product designer comfortable with all aspects of the design process
• Experienced in early‑stage complex product development or entrepreneurial endeavours

Desired Qualifications

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

• 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 intellectual curiosity to learn about new areas such as radar systems, military doctrine, cognitive load, ethics, and more
• Have personal values which match ours: ownership, initiative, dedication to mission, speed and inclusiveness

Why Helsing?

• Contribute directly to the protection of democratic countries while balancing ethical and geopolitical concerns
• Work in a unique domain with advanced technology where robustness, safety, and ethical considerations are vital
• Take part in state‑of‑the‑art innovations such as reinforcement learning, distributed systems, generative AI, and deployment infrastructure
