Software Engineer - Prodigy

Helsing was built to keep our democracies from harm. We believe that software – and artificial intelligence in particular – will be the key capability to do just that. Our mission is to attract Europe’s best mission-driven tech talent and apply their capabilities to some of the most complex problems in defence technology.

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. We are a diverse team of software engineers, deep learning specialists and customer-facing programme managers, working on some of the most challenging problems in the defence space.

We care about our work and mission, and we welcome open and transparent discussions about the use of AI, its benefits and its ethical implications.

Maybe the more interesting question is: what impact will Helsing have on you? Our ambitions are enormous (both on the business and on the technology side) and we are building Europe’s premier AI research and software engineering teams across disciplines such as networking, probabilistic inference, databases, information security, data systems, 3D computer graphics, and many more. You will learn from leading industry and academic experts—not in a vacuum, but while working alongside them to build cutting-edge, operational software and data systems.

You will design algorithms and system architectures, author RFCs and comment on others’ design documents, implement your ideas, learn from your peers through code-reviews, and operate the systems you gave birth to. You will pass on what you learned through tech talks, mentoring, reading groups, blog posts, or discussions over drinks and nibbles. You will grow as a person and as a software engineer.

Helsing is an equal opportunities employer. We are committed to equal employment opportunity regardless of race, religion, sexual orientation, age, marital status, disability or gender identity. Please do not submit personal data revealing racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, trade union membership, data concerning your health, or data concerning your sexual orientation.
