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.  THE 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. Expect speed and agility – Rather than just writing recommendations, strategies or ideas, you will be bringing 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. Expect autonomy and responsibilities – At Helsing, impact comes from doing, not overseeing. It is all about the work, not the fluff. You will not find yourself drowning in emails, sitting through pointless meetings, dealing with bureaucratic red tape or overcooked strategies. You will be 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. We are here to build, period.
