Who we are
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 join a team focused on AI Assurance, where you will develop cutting-edge techniques for scalable evaluation of AI products across the company, design data collection and experimentation strategies to extract causal insights, and enhance responsible decision-making via uncertainty quantification and safety mechanisms.
The day-to-day
You will be responsible for defining operational domains and evaluating the reliability of the AI capabilities developed in-house. You will develop and extend the state-of-the-art in uncertainty quantification and uncertainty calibration. This will involve understanding the AI systems we build, interfacing with them, and evaluating their robustness in real-world and adversarial scenarios. You will contribute to impactful projects and will collaborate with people across several teams and backgrounds.
You should apply if you
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 papers on state of the art Deep Learning-based approaches
Possess solid software engineering skills, writing clean and well-structured code in Python and/or languages like Rust, Java, or modern C++, and experience deploying AI software to production including testing, QA, and monitoring
Note: We operate at an intersection where women, as well as other minority groups, are systemically under-represented. We encourage you to apply even if you don’t meet all the listed qualifications; ability and impact cannot be summarised in a few bullet points.
Nice to have
PhD in either model evaluation and robustness, uncertainty quantification, experimental design, causal inference or related fields.
Have authored publications in top-tier journals and conferences (e.g., NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, etc.).
Previous industrial experience in assuring the safe deployment of AI products.
Experience deploying AI software to production including testing, quality assurance, and monitoring
Join Helsing and work with world-leading experts in their fields
Helsing’s work is important. You’ll be directly contributing to the protection of democratic countries while balancing both ethical and geopolitical concerns.
The work is unique. We operate in a domain that has highly unusual technical requirements and constraints, and where robustness, safety, and ethical considerations are vital. You will face unique Engineering and AI challenges that make a meaningful impact in the world.
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. Advances in our field of world are not incremental: Helsing is part of, and often leading, historic leaps forward.
In our domain, success is a matter of order-of-magnitude improvements and novel capabilities. This means we take bets, aim high, and focus on big opportunities. Despite being a relatively young company, Helsing has already been selected for multiple significant government contracts.
We actively encourage healthy, proactive, and diverse debate internally about what we do and how we choose to do it. Teams and individual engineers are trusted (and encouraged) to practise responsible autonomy and critical thinking, and to focus on outcomes, not conformity. At Helsing you will have a say in how we (and you!) work, the opportunity to engage on what does and doesn’t work, and to take ownership of aspects of our culture that you care deeply about.
What we offer
A focus on outcomes, not time-tracking
Competitive compensation and stock options
Social and education allowances
Regular 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 - all whilst working with other AI and engineering teams from day one
