Helsing is a defence AI company. Our mission is to protect our democracies. We aim to achieve technological leadership, so that open societies can continue to make sovereign decisions and control their ethical standards.
As democracies, we believe we have a special responsibility to be thoughtful about the development and deployment of powerful technologies like AI. We take this responsibility seriously.
We are an ambitious and committed team of 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. We embrace an open and transparent culture that welcomes healthy debates on the use of technology in defence, its benefits, and its ethical implications.
In this role, you will be pivotal in crafting and managing technical documents that underpin our products and operational processes, with a specific focus on meeting military standards. Your responsibilities will include the preparation and coordination of diverse documentation such as operating manuals, maintenance guides, and catalogues.
Prepare and update technical documentation in accordance with military specifications and standards, including but not limited to operating manuals, maintenance guides, and parts catalogues
Collect and analyze technical information from drawings, specifications, and schematics, ensuring all documentation accurately reflects these details
Collaborate with engineering and development teams to ensure the precision and thoroughness of technical documents
Utilize specialized software, such as Adobe FrameMaker and MS Office, to craft and edit documents and illustrations
Ensure all documentation complies with relevant industry and military standards, aligning with client requirements
Manage entire documentation projects from inception through completion, ensuring adherence to quality and consistency
Facilitate the digital integration and delivery of documentation to clients, ensuring seamless data transfer
Coordinate documentation processes with external service providers as necessary, maintaining compliance with military specifications
Completed technical vocational training or degree, with experience in technical documentation and military standards preferred
An excellent technical understanding
Experience with ASD specifications such as S1000D, S2000M, or S3000L
Strong proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite and familiarity with documentation software such as Adobe FrameMaker, Photoshop, or Illustrator
Excellent organisational and analytical skills, with a strong attention to detail
Capability to understand and interpret complex technical drawings and datasets
Effective communication skills; fluency in both German and English is required
Self-motivated with the capability to work independently and manage multiple projects efficiently
Knowledge of ERP systems and database management; experience with military specifications is an advantage
Experience in the defence industry is a plus
Note: We operate in an industry 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.
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
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
