Stellenbeschreibung

Who we are

The role 

Collaborating closely with our dynamic team of product designers and engineers, you will play a pivotal role in shaping the foundation of frontend at Helsing. Embracing a hands-on approach, you'll not only lead by example, but also spearhead the development and expansion of a tight-knit team that works across a wide-range of internal teams and products. Your primary emphasis will be on enhancing usability, creating re-usable foundations for multiple front-ends and optimising the end-user experience across the entire company.

The day-to-day

• Review code contributions, proposals, and RFCs from colleagues. At Helsing we strongly believe that unblocking others takes precedence over spending more time on your own work.

• Own the user interface end-to-end, from early wireframes and prototypes through to performant, production-ready code. You'll work closely with product and UX colleagues to shape how users interact with our tools. We have relatively few frontend engineers at Helsing; this means that we operate at a high level of autonomy and there are plenty of opportunities for impactful work.

• Propose and implement new features, capabilities, tooling, visualizations, or even full products across our stack. We encourage our engineers to look beyond their immediate team for missed opportunities, and to speak up when they identify one.

• Establish and evolve our React component library, ensuring consistency, reusability, and alignment with our visual design standards across multiple front-ends.

• Collaborate with others beyond your team and share knowledge with the wider frontend community at Helsing. Contribute to establishing our frontend engineering standards. Build or adopt tools that help enforce these standards, or make our frontend engineers more efficient in a different way.

• Become a mentor, find a mentee, and help support and develop our interviewing pipeline. The people make or break the company, and we want as many engineers as possible to be part of fostering and growing the organisation.

• Share your experience and technical know-how with other Helsingers. We host tech talks, get together for smaller "let's learn together" groups, run topical office hours or reading groups (e.g., on React or TypeScript), etc. to help each other get better with time.

• Connect with, understand, and make changes to backend systems as needed. Our backends are primarily written in Rust, and you'll need to be comfortable navigating unfamiliar codebases to unblock yourself and improve integrations. Rust experience is not a prerequisite to this role, though - you can learn that over time as needed.

• Present your work at our weekly demo sessions. We want engineers to come together around what they are working on and to feel like they are not endlessly squirrelling away at something that doesn't matter. To that end, we host (and actively work towards) demo sessions that allow early feedback, celebration of progress, and a better shared understanding of everything that goes on at Helsing.

You should apply if you

• Can write legible, maintainable, and performant frontend code - ideally using TypeScript and React.

• Are experienced with APIs and server-client communication like REST and GraphQL.

• Have experience with running a live production software.

• Are passionate about staying on top of current development best practices, libraries and frameworks.

• Are comfortable working with unfamiliar backends, ideally with some exposure to languages like Rust.

• Communicate well in English, both verbally and in writing.

• Enjoy collaborating with others, including reviewing code and pair programming.

• Are comfortable working asynchronously (writing PRs and RFCs, having discussions by email).

• Strive to improve yourself, your peers, and the culture you work in over time.

• Feel like ethical considerations are an inherent part of engineering.

Note: We operate at an intersection where women, as well as other minority groups, are systematically 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.

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

Nice to have

• Significant recent experience with React.

• Familiarity with backend interface tools like REST, GraphQL, gRPC/Protocol Buffers.

• Established understanding of modern JS bundlers, such as Vite, and experience maintaining frontend infrastructure.

• Experience with styling utility-class libraries such as TailwindCSS and building reusable React component libraries.

• Data visualization expertise (e.g., D3.js, custom charting, or complex dashboard design).

• Background in designing software for aerospace, defense, or AI end users.

What we offer

• A focus on outcomes, not time-tracking

• Competitive compensation and VSOP options

• Relocation support

• 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 “Infraduction”), in which you will be building tooling and applications to be 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 engineering teams from day one

At JetBrains, code is our passion. Ever since we started, back in 2000, we have strived to make the strongest, most effective developer tools on earth. By automating routine checks and corrections, our tools speed up production, freeing developers to grow, discover, and create.

About the Initiative

JetBrains is evolving beyond standalone developer tools toward a unified, AI-native platform for software development.

AI is no longer just an assistant inside the editor –  it is becoming an active participant in how software is planned, built, reviewed, and operated across teams and organizations. This shift introduces new challenges that cannot be solved at the level of individual tools alone: governance, security, cost control, observability, and coordinated work between humans and autonomous agents.

Our goal is to build a platform that enables companies to adopt AI in software development in a structured, scalable, and economically efficient manner – without locking them into closed ecosystems.

We are building the foundation that connects developer workflows, team-level collaboration, and organizational control into a single coherent system.

This platform will serve as the execution and governance layer for AI-driven development, deeply integrated with developer tools but designed to work across teams, products, and environments.

This is a long-term strategic investment for JetBrains and a key pillar of our vision for the future of software development.

The role

We are looking for a Principal Engineer (JetBrains Cloud Platform, Developer Experience) to drive large-scale improvements to the development experience across the JCP.

This role focuses on making JCP engineers faster and more productive by improving build systems, CI/CD pipelines, local development workflows, tooling infrastructure, and AI pipelines. You will own the developer experience end to end – from how engineers develop, build, and test locally to how code moves through CI and reaches production. As this is a rapidly growing platform, many workflows and processes are still maturing. You will define what a great development experience looks like and drive the organization toward it.

As part of the team, you will:

- Own and drive the strategy for developer experience improvements across the entire JCP platform.

- Optimize build systems (Gradle, Nx, and others) for faster builds, better caching, and reliable reproducibility at scale.

- Set up AI development pipelines, managing context, agents, and handoffs, and leveraging tools developed within the JCP.

- Improve CI/CD pipelines – reduce build times, increase reliability, optimize resource usage, and shorten feedback loops across TeamCity and GitHub.

- Improve containerized development workflows (Docker, Dev Containers) to ensure fast and consistent local environments.

- Identify and eliminate bottlenecks in the development cycle – from code commit to production deployment.

- Establish best practices, tooling standards, and shared infrastructure that enable all teams to move faster.

- Collaborate with platform and product teams to understand pain points and deliver high-impact improvements.

We are looking for someone who:

- Has extensive experience with build systems (Gradle, Maven, or Bazel) and a track record of optimizing them at scale.

- Has strong expertise in CI/CD systems (GitHub Actions, TeamCity, Jenkins, or similar) and knows how to ensure high performance and reliability.

- Has hands-on experience with Docker and containerized development workflows.

- Understands the full software development life cycle and can reason about developer productivity holistically.

- Is able to drive cross-team initiatives and influence engineering practices across a large organization.

- Is motivated by making other engineers more productive and removing friction from their daily work.

We'd be particularly thrilled if you:

- Have experience improving the developer experience at scale in a platform or infrastructure organization.

- Have worked on AI-driven development pipelines.

- Have expertise in build caching, remote execution, and incremental build strategies.

- Have contributed to or maintained open-source build tooling or CI/CD infrastructure.

- Enjoy digging into performance problems and turning slow, flaky processes into fast, reliable ones.
