Who we are
Helsing is a defence AI company with the mission is to protect our liberal democracies. We aim to achieve technological leadership, so that open societies can continue to make sovereign decisions and control their ethical standards. We believe we have a responsibility to be thoughtful about the development and deployment of powerful technologies like AI and take this responsibility seriously. We are an ambitious and committed team of software and deployment 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 today. We embrace an open and transparent culture that welcomes healthy debates on the use of technology in defence, its benefits, and its ethical implications.
The role
At Helsing, we deliver AI-based capabilities and the enabling foundation that allow machines to perceive and assist human decision-making. You will have the unique opportunity to shape AI capabilities in one of the most challenging sectors, where high generalisation capabilities need to be paired with hardware constraints and robustness against adversarial attacks. You will be part of a signal processing team, where you will build in-house solutions for signal processing problems that we face in our delivery projects.
The day-to-day
You will develop and extend the state-of-the-art in signal processing, applying and deploying the technology in real-world scenarios. You will contribute to projects and will collaborate with people across several teams and backgrounds.
What we offer
- A dynamic and flexible environment, focusing on outcomes rather than output
- Competitive compensation and stock options
- Relocation support
- Social and education allowances
- Regular team, company events, and all-hands to bring together employees as one team across Europe
- A hands-on onboarding program (affectionately labelled “AI-duction”), in which you will be familiarising yourself with our tools and ML pipelines used across the company. This is your opportunity to learn our tech stack, explore the company, and learn how we get things done.
You should apply if you
- Hold an MSc in signal processing, machine learning, robotics, communication engineering or related field with experience in conceptualising, implementing and thoroughly evaluating advanced AI-based systems
- Have excellent communication skills and the ability to report and present research findings clearly and efficiently both internally and externally
- Are passionate about keeping up to date with current research and enjoy reimplementing / extending the state-of-the art in ML/AI
- Possess solid software engineering skills, writing clean and well-structured code in Python and/or languages like Rust, Java, or modern C++
Nice to have
- A PhD in signal processing, machine learning, robotics, communication engineering or related field and have authored publications in top-tier journals and conferences
- Experience with implementing signal processing algorithms, time frequency analysis, parameter estimation
- Experience deploying AI software to production including testing, quality assurance, and monitoring
