Product Manager - AI Assurance & Simulation

Helsing is building AI systems for some of the most demanding environments in the world. As Product Manager for AI Assurance and Simulation, you will define and deliver the tools that allow engineers to trust, test and deploy AI safely on advanced airborne systems. This is a new product area, and you will shape it from first principles: setting strategy, building the roadmap and working directly with engineering and autonomy teams to move from concept to validated capability. Your decisions will have a direct bearing on flight test campaigns and development velocity, making this a role with genuine ownership and real-world consequence.

The day-to-day

• Research and synthesise user needs across engineering and autonomy teams, translating operational pain points into clearly scoped product requirements that directly inform roadmap priorities
• Define and own the product strategy and feature roadmap for AI assurance and simulation tooling, aligning stakeholders across technical and leadership levels around a coherent, deliverable plan
• Partner with engineering teams to scope, prioritise and ship minimum viable products that measurably accelerate flight test readiness and reduce validation cycle times
• Make structured trade-off decisions between technical debt and new capability, maintaining development velocity without compromising safety or assurance standards
• Communicate product direction, progress and risks to leadership with clarity and precision, enabling informed investment decisions and strategic alignment

You should apply if you

• Have defined and shipped products in technical or safety-critical domains, with a working understanding of software validation, testing or AI assurance
• Can translate complex, ambiguous system requirements into actionable roadmaps and measurable delivery milestones
• Have built effective working relationships across engineering, autonomy and leadership teams, adapting your communication clearly for each audience
• Have conducted user research and discovery in emerging or early-stage product areas, turning uncertainty into structured, prioritised action
• Are motivated by mission-critical work and understand the weight of deploying AI in high-consequence environments.
