About BOND

BOND makes Europe's €2 trillion public procurement market accessible to every business. Public contracts are published across hundreds of portals, in dozens of languages, with different formats and deadlines — so most companies never even see the contracts they could win. BOND brings them together in one feed, translates them automatically, and uses AI to match every tender against a company's profile.

Tender discovery is just the beginning. Our vision is a platform that handles the entire path from finding a public contract to submitting a winning bid. We are based in Vienna and backed by the NVIDIA Inception, Microsoft for Startups, and AWS programs, and businesses across Europe already rely on BOND every day.

We live ownership: you are responsible for your projects end to end. No politics, few meetings, direct feedback, and short paths to the founders. Join us to help open one of the largest and least accessible markets in the world.

You will build and own core backend services: the APIs our product runs on, the data pipelines that keep millions of tenders fresh, and the integrations that connect everything together. You will work across the full lifecycle — design, implementation, deployment, and operation.

• Design and build APIs and services powering search, matching, and the customer dashboard
• Own data pipelines end to end: ingestion, processing, deduplication, enrichment
• Keep the platform fast and reliable as data volume and traffic grow
• Improve observability, testing, and developer experience across the codebase

What you bring

• 3+ years building production backend systems in a modern language and framework
• Solid database fundamentals — schema design, indexing, query performance
• Experience operating services in production: monitoring, debugging, incident response
• A pragmatic approach: simple designs, shipped iteratively, measured honestly
• Bonus: experience with search or data-heavy pipelines

What we offer

• Salary: €60K – €85K depending on experience
• Equity: you build BOND, so you should own a piece of it
• Equipment of your choice — whatever makes you do your best work
• Hybrid work from our Vienna office, flexible hours
• Direct collaboration with the founders — no politics, short decision paths
• Regular team events, and coffee, drinks, and snacks in the office
