COMPANYHelsing

As an IT Engineer, you will design, build, and operate the IT and infrastructure that underpins Helsing's European offices and engineering teams. You will work across geographies and functions to deliver secure, scalable, and reliable infrastructure for collaborative work on highly sensitive defence technologies in alignment with applicable regulations, standards, and industry best practice. You will own meaningful parts of our endpoint, identity, network, and cloud estate, and partner closely with Security, Engineering, and IT Support to keep Helsing moving fast without compromising on trust. Your work is an essential ingredient in Helsing's ability to deliver complex systems that answer the challenges of tomorrow's battlefields.

The day-to-day:

  • Configure, harden, and operate endpoints (workstations, laptops, servers) across macOS, Windows, and Linux.
  • Design, deploy, and maintain on-prem compute environments built on Linux, including supporting capabilities like virtualisation and Kubernetes.
  • Configure and operate our network and VPN infrastructure across offices and remote workers, including network- and host-based security tooling.
  • Operate and continuously optimise our corporate, development, and customer environments built primarily on Microsoft 365 and Azure, alongside other SaaS solutions.
  • Lead the design and rollout of identity, access, and device management at scale (Entra ID, Conditional Access, MDM).
  • Automate provisioning, configuration, and operational toil using PowerShell, Python, and IaC tooling.
  • Partner with our IT Support team to resolve escalations, eliminate recurring issues, and raise the engineering bar across the IT function. Contribute to security, compliance, and audit activities, and help shape Helsing's IT strategy as we scale.
