Who we are
Helsing develops artificial intelligence-enabled capabilities to protect and defend democracies. We are growing our US operations, cultivating an ambitio us and committed team of mission-driven professionals to apply their skills to solve challenging problems.
The role
As Helsing grows its presence in the United States and deepens its work with the US Government, we require a Legal Counsel to own the export control function and contribute across a broader legal remit. This role sits within Helsing's US entity and is central to how we operate responsibly and competitively in the US market.
You will be Helsing's subject matter expert on US export controls, trade compliance, and technology transfer. You will work closely with our engineering, business development, and government affairs teams to ensure that the way we develop and deploy our technology is legally sound and operationally enabling.
This is a hands-on role. You will be doing the work, building the frameworks, and sitting at the table when it matters. You will also serve as a critical bridge between Helsing's US entity and its European operations - helping to manage the cross-border legal complexity that comes with being a transatlantic defense technology company.
Beyond export control, you will contribute to the broader legal function - supporting commercial contracting with US Government customers and defense primes, employment matters, and general corporate legal work as the US entity scales.
The day-to-day
