§ 01 · We are hiring

Why HELX?

Based in the 20th arrondissement of Paris, HELX is a cybersecurity firm that champions the technical excellence of its consultants and covers the full spectrum of cybersecurity. Growing skills is central here: training, certifications (OSCP, CHFI, CRTP, CRTO) and shared field experience, so we bring our clients qualified, certified profiles.

We look for motivated, autonomous and ambitious people who pick things up quickly, love to learn and want to join the adventure of making HELX a key player on the French and international cybersecurity scene.

Our 4 key arguments

  • Skills, first

    Training and certification are part of the path: our experts all hold multiple certifications, and so will you.

  • A real team spirit

    A small, tight-knit team that helps each other and keeps learning together.

  • You make a real difference

    Forget the big firms: with us, everything you do feeds directly into HELX's growth.

  • The full cyber spectrum

    Offensive and defensive: varied missions to grow on every front.

§ 02 · Open roles

Positions currently open

Every application is read by one of the three founders. The process is short: a first conversation, a technical interview, a meeting with the team.

  1. Business development manager

    Apply

    Alongside the three founders, you take charge of HELX's business development across the whole sales cycle of our services: penetration testing, audits, forensics, incident response and training.

    Your main playground: winning new business. Cold calling, account targeting, booking meetings, closing: you go out and find new clients, and build your pipeline over time.

    In parallel, you cover the other fronts:

    • Growing the existing portfolio: understanding the needs of recurring clients, building long-term relationships.
    • Shaping the commercial strategy: market and needs analysis, offer positioning, action plan.

    We train you in our craft so you can hold your own with anyone from CISOs to small-business owners.

    On-target package 55-70 k€ (base depending on profile + uncapped bonus)
    Experience
    Proven track record in B2B services sales, ideally IT or cybersecurity
    Start date

    What we look for

    • Outbound prospecting: targeting, cold calls, booking meetings, closing
    • Growing existing accounts: listening, needs analysis, retention
    • Market analysis and building a commercial action plan
    • Smart, considered use of AI to streamline sales workflows
    • Comfortable selling technical services; IT or cyber culture is a real plus
    • Autonomy, tenacity and a taste for the field
  2. Offensive security internship

    InternshipParis, France

    Apply

    Embedded in HELX's technical team, you split your time between two tracks:

    • Client missions (half-time): penetration tests and audits alongside our consultants, from preparation to debrief.
    • Internship project (half-time): a technical subject carried out with guided autonomy, picked from a list of available topics (coming soon).

    The profile we have in mind leans towards offensive security, with a genuine openness to defensive work and cloud. What matters most: the will to learn.

    Experience
    Engineering school student, end-of-studies or gap-year internship
    Start date
    Q2 2027

    What we look for

    • Solid foundations in systems, networks and web
    • First offensive experience: CTFs, labs (HackTheBox, Root-Me…), personal projects
    • Curiosity for defensive security and cloud
    • Eagerness to learn, rigour and autonomy
    • Ability to document and clearly present your work
