The Bending Spoons Engineering Student and Graduate Program is an exclusive, year-long growth opportunity designed to provide a comprehensive, captivating, and impactful formative experience.

We design your program in tandem with you—personalized in a way that most resonates with your interests and skills. This means you could take on one role for the full twelve months, or rotate across different areas. Whatever the specifics of your program, expect massive development opportunities from the get-go—and a chance to kickstart an incredible career.

You’ll get hands-on experience in at least one of the following areas:


  • Mobile Development

  • Backend Development

  • Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Engineering

  • Web Development

A few examples of your responsibilities

  • Support your teammates on day-to-day activities, absorbing best practices, learning by doing, and receiving coaching from your colleagues.
  • Contribute to the success of the team by taking care of ad hoc tasks and projects related to your area of work.
  • Suggest ways we can improve how we work, and propose new strategies and approaches for facing our daily challenges.

What we look for

  • Drive. Your dedication matches the intensity of your ambition. You’re willing to put in the hard work necessary to achieve your goals, and the highly demanding challenges in your track record are proof of your relentless spirit.
  • Logical-analytical abilities. You’re able to objectively evaluate complex information, arguments, and situations. You’re used to applying logical deduction to tackle sophisticated problems, and this has often allowed you to solve difficult intellectual challenges.
  • Passion. You have a genuine love for the field. You investigate the subject extensively and are always up to date with the latest developments.
  • Pragmatism. Far from being too academic or obsessive in your perfectionism, you understand that speed is often as important as quality when getting things done in a competitive world.
  • Humility. You’re down to earth, eager to listen to feedback and constructive criticism, and ready to support your team with whatever it needs to succeed.
  • Communication skills. You can pose questions with clarity and explain your reasoning concisely.
  • Proficiency in English. You read, write, and speak proficiently in English.

What we offer

  • Talented, knowledgeable colleagues. Learn from (and teach) some of the brightest and most skilled people you’ll ever meet. Your talent is going to blossom here.
  • Continuous education. Spooners get unlimited backing for learning investments, including Italian or English lessons and things like courses, conferences, and books. There’s no permission or approval process—you’re fully trusted to use the company’s resources efficiently.
  • International reach. We’re a global company, and your work will have worldwide exposure.
  • People who lift up one another. We hire for talent and leave the ego at the door. You'll find a group of truly talented Spooners who are eager to teach their secrets and to learn. Reciprocal support and respect is everything—you’re unlikely to ever encounter a more harmonious crew.
  • Remote working. Spend as much or as little time in our Milan office as you choose. Many Spooners like to change up their environment and get out of the city whenever the mood strikes. You’ve always got the freedom to decide where today’s office is.
  • Flexible schedule. Our regular hours are 9-6 GMT+1, with remote work allowed within GMT-2 to GMT+3 time zones.
  • Unlimited time off. Take all the time you need to be with your family or just recharge your batteries. There’s no maximum number of days off, and there isn't any kind of permission process. We just ask that you make your vacation decisions mindfully.
  • The finest tools. You get the best hardware on the market and all the software you could need. We can't wait to introduce you to our high-tech approach and our cutting-edge workflows.
  • Lots. Of. Fun. Our incredible People Operations team organizes awesome events, such as team games, drinks, yoga classes, parties, and regular company-wide retreats. Recent destinations include Bali, Mauritius, and Tanzania.
  • Competitive salary and stock options. Our compensation package is highly competitive, and can grow rapidly and include stock options, depending on your performance and seniority.
