Software Engineer - Backend

At Helsing we develop and deliver AI-based capabilities and the enabling infrastructure that allow semi-autonomous platforms to localise, navigate, and perceive the world in real time. We build software that is subject to significant and unorthodox technical constraints, must operate in a wide variety of constantly-changing environments, and has to support an ever-growing list of challenging use-cases. What we build ultimately ends up in the hands of real people in high-risk, high-stress situations, so must be both reliable and frictionless. Taken together, this brings a whole host of interesting engineering challenges across a wide variety of fields that you’ll help us solve. To give some examples: Distributed systems (e.g., intermittent connectivity and byzantine actors), Embedded computing (e.g., resource-constrained compute and reverse-engineering), Robotics (e.g., control systems and tasking), Networking (e.g., long-range low-bandwidth radios and cross-medium routing), Deployment infrastructure (e.g., air-gapped devices and heterogenous fleets), Security (e.g., data sharing in low-trust, no-TLS networks and actually-secret data handling), Machine learning (e.g., systems for model development).
