Jobbeschreibung

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.

The role

You will join the engineering team working on the AI features of the product — the systems that read, translate, and match public tenders. You get real product responsibility from day one, paired with mentorship from senior engineers, and your work ships to customers quickly.

What you will do

• Build and improve AI-powered product features alongside senior engineers
• Write, test, and ship production code — not prototypes
• Help evaluate model and prompt changes so quality decisions are grounded in data
• Learn how AI systems behave at real scale, with real users and real constraints
• Grow: the goal of this role is to make you a strong AI/LLM engineer, fast

What you bring

• Solid programming fundamentals in at least one language
• Genuine curiosity about applied AI — side projects, coursework, or experiments welcome
• The habit of finishing things and asking good questions along the way
• Fluent English; German is a plus
• A degree is welcome but not required — what you can build matters more

What we offer

• Salary: €45K – €60K 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
