About Pillar

Pillar is an Italian startup founded on 2025. In less than a year, we’ve grown to a team of 100+, have around €15 million in funding and are already making yearly revenue — only 12 months after our inception—with backing from prominent funds like Base10 (Silicon Valley), Earlybird (Germany), and the Italian Founders Fund. In a very short time, we’ve acquired over 900 clients.

Our goal is to become the digital backbone of the Italian construction industry and, in the long term, to manage one out of every three construction sites in Europe.

We are looking for recent (or near-recent) graduates who want to learn how to sell—for real. You don’t need prior experience; what you do need is hunger, intelligence, and a drive to build something.

Why a Graduate Program?

Universities teach management, finance, and marketing—but they don’t teach sales. Yet, sales are the engine of any company, especially a B2B SaaS startup aiming to transform a €200 billion industry.

Pillar is the perfect place to learn. Here, you’ll discover how the tech world functions, what B2B SaaS truly entails, and how to build a product that will change the way Italian SMEs manage their businesses.

Who We Are (and Why We Exist)

The Spanish construction sector is among the backbones of it's national economy, yet it is still managed using outdated tools. Construction sites generate revenue but struggle with cash collection; Excel spreadsheets are everywhere, and profit margins are often discovered too late. Pillar was created to solve this: we help construction entrepreneurs understand exactly what is happening on their sites—in real time.
