&quot;The CA-1 Europa is taking shape. In Bavaria, inside a manufacturing facility with its own airfield, our team at **[Helsing](https://www.linkedin.com/company/helsing/)** and **[Grob Aircraft](https://www.linkedin.com/company/grobaircraft/)** is building the first autonomous combat aircraft designed and produced in Germany, for Europe. \
\
We announced CA-1 in September 2025 and our partnership with **[HENSOLDT](https://www.linkedin.com/company/hensoldt/)** in February 2026. The program is on schedule. Maiden flight comes next year. \
\
Today we’re showing you the initial construction phase: the wings.&quot;</body_markdown>

      <body_markdown>Can you share (I don&apos;t know if you are allowed to talk about this) a little bit about the company culture? How does it feel to work there?</body_markdown>

      <body_markdown>It&apos;s a very dynamic company! A ton of talented people, being hired and treated like adults, working on a very important mission.

I&apos;ve been at companies where you have leadership try to micro-manage everything and everyone, and be paranoid at all stages.

In Helsing, for now, there is a ton of trust and everyone is given a lot of autonomy to deliver what needs delivering. It&apos;s extremely refreshing, because it also means I can go on holiday and not worry that *stuff* won&apos;t get done. 

There&apos;s also so many products we&apos;re working on, each and every one of them super interesting and with its own challenges. 

Is it difficult work? Yes. 

Is it rewarding work? Yes.

Is it sometimes difficultly rewarding? Also yes.

Also the London office is better than the other offices and right now nobody can disagree with me.</body_markdown>

      <body_markdown>Sorry to disagree with you there... but the Berlin office is definitely nicer! 

As for the rest, can only agree. It&apos;s weirdly refreshing and liberating when a company trusts you and let&apos;s you off the leash, and it shows in the speed at which things are done at Helsing. 

The work in IT, specifically IT Engineering, is so vastly different when comparing it to other companies not only in freedom, but also the different types of projects I work(ed) on.

And honestly, now that I&apos;ve been &quot;spoilt&quot; I don&apos;t ever want to go back haha</body_markdown>

Do you have a traditional office where everybody works or do you guys do remote work too?</body_markdown>

      <body_markdown>We have multiple offices around Europe! But everyone can work wherever they can deliver the best outcome. Often that has to be in an office (access to hardware / other people), other times it&apos;s at home.</body_markdown>
