Junior Talent Acquisition Manager

Prewave

WHAT WE BUILD Most companies find out about supplier insolvencies, cyber attacks, factory fires or floods that affect their supply chain when it's already a crisis. Prewave exists to change that. We're an AI-native company giving BMW Group, Hilti and Lufthansa real-time visibility into supply chain risks before they become headlines.  We’re looking for a Junior Technical Specialist (f/m/d) who takes ownership of proposal delivery, technical enablement, and solution knowledge from day one. Someone who uses AI as a default part of how they work - and knows when to trust their own judgment. WHAT YOU'LL OWN * Support RFIs, RFPs, RFQs, and customer questionnaires so that prospects get accurate, high-quality responses from the start. * Prepare technical documentation, presentations, trainings, and solution overviews so that customers and internal teams always have clear material to work from. * Collaborate with Solution Engineering, Proposal Management, and Solution Expertise teams to deliver cross functional projects. * Support customer demos, workshops, and proof-of-concept activities to enable efficient value demonstration * Maintain proposal content, knowledge bases, and internal documentation so that the whole team can execute faster. * Contribute to process improvements, automation initiatives, and AI-driven projects so that repetitive work gets systematically eliminated. * Develop expertise in Prewave’s product, technology & integrations, and customer use cases so that you can speak to any part of the platform with confidence. WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR You are the right fit if you: * Have completed or are near completion of a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree. * Have strong analytical, organisational, and communication skills - you can break down a complex question into a structured, confident answer. * Care deeply about Prewave’s mission to make global supply chains more transparent, resilient, and sustainable - which is reflected in how you show up. * Have high attention to detail and a genuine willingness to learn. * Are fluent in German and English. * Live in Vienna or are willing to relocate. * Hold a valid work permit for Austria - we are unable to support visa or work permit applications.  Nice to have: * Internship or project experience in SaaS, consulting, technology, or project management. * Interest in innovation & technology, AI & automation, or supply chain risk management. * Hands-on experience with AI tools such as Copilot, Claude, Cursor, or Gemini. * Additional languages are a plus. WHAT'S OUR WORKING STYLE We’re a resilient AI-native team building an AI-native resilience product - and we hire for both. For us, AI-native has always meant humans and AI working together, not one replacing the other. We use tools like Claude, Copilot, and Cursor as a normal part of the job, to think faster, work smarter and spend less time on the repetitive stuff. We treat AI fluency as a skill like any other - something you build, experiment with and keep developing. What that works alongside is real ownership. You’ll have the space and the trust to figure things out your way - with a strong team around you and plenty of support when you need it. Things move fast here and the brief won’t always be complete, but that’s what makes the work interesting. The people who do best at Prewave are curious by default, go after things rather than wait to be handed them, and don’t lose their footing when the plan changes. We score six values in every interview - creating positive impact, optimising for customer value, being an ambitious innovator, operating with urgency, doing things that make sense and collaborating with kindness - so you always know what we're looking for and can prepare accordingly.  THE PACKAGE Minimum EUR 2,547 gross monthly.  Your birthday off. MyClubs partnership. Mental health support. Regular health check-ups and initiatives. Company-wide training. Fun team events. Device of choice. Work from anywhere - up to 8 weeks a year.
