Описание

Helsing is a defence AI company. Our mission is to protect our democracies. We aim to achieve technological leadership, so that open societies can continue to make sovereign decisions and control their ethical standards. As democracies, we believe we have a special responsibility to be thoughtful about the development and deployment of powerful technologies like AI. We take this responsibility seriously. We are an ambitious and committed team of engineers, AI specialists and customer-facing programme managers. We are looking for mission-driven people to join our European teams - and apply their skills to solve the most complex and impactful problems. We embrace an open and transparent culture that welcomes healthy debates on the use of technology in defence, its benefits, and its ethical implications. As a Lead Systems Engineer, you will lead systems engineering work for warhead and lethality package programmes, with a focus on safety-critical ESAD and MSAD architectures, fuzes and target-sensing systems. You will shape requirements and oversee integration, verification, validation and qualification, including for loitering munitions. Working from our Munich office, you will serve as a technical point of contact for internal teams, suppliers and external customers, including German defence procurement authorities. Your work will help ensure that systems meet their technical, regulatory and safety requirements and are ready for testing and programme delivery.

Our work frequently takes us right up to the state of the art in technical innovation, be it reinforcement learning, distributed systems, generative AI, or deployment infrastructure. The defence industry is entering the most exciting phase of the technological development curve.
