Construction technology is being reinvented. Be part of it.
Construction is one of the world's largest industries, and one of its least digitized. That is changing fast. Hilti is
at the centre of that shift, with a growing portfolio of software products that connect jobsites, offices, teams, and
tools across the entire construction lifecycle. We are looking for the people who will run that business in ten years.
The Software Track of Hilti's Outperformer Program is a two-year accelerated leadership traineeship built for rare
profiles: technically sharp, commercially minded, internationally mobile, and genuinely curious about how software
creates value in the physical world. This is not a rotation program where you shadow senior leaders. From day one, you
carry real responsibility.
What You'll do
The Software Track is designed to build the next generation of software business leaders at Hilti – Business Owners,
Business Directors, Segment Managers and ultimately Senior Management Team members. If you want a structured path to
running a business, this program is built for that outcome.
The program places you inside one of two business units:
Construction Software: Home to Fieldwire (Field Software for project and workforce management), ON!Track (asset
management), and 4PS (construction business management). You will work directly with customers, product teams, and
business leadership across Europe and beyond.
Fastening & Protection Solutions: Where design & engineering software for structural connections (e.g. PROFIS
Engineering Suite), MEP supports and passive fire protection systems are developed and brought to market across a
global customer base of structural and mechanical engineers.
For the Construction Software business unit, the program is structured to provide a balanced foundation in customer
and market exposure, software product understanding, and business experience, while giving you the opportunity to work
with at least two software products during the program:
- Year 1: Begin with a 12-month sales assignment, developing direct customer insight and understanding the business
challenges addressed by our software solutions.
- Year 2: Undertake three rotations of 3–6 months each across product and business teams, including exposure to an
international project.
For the Fastening & Protection Solution business unit, the program provides exposure to product management , software
development, exposure to customers and start-ups and international project experience:
- Year 1: Begin with a 12-month product management assignment, building product understanding and market insight.
- Year 2: Undertake three rotations of 3–6 months each, involving international projects that broaden your business
perspective and global exposure.
You will have a dedicated senior mentor from the start, direct exposure to executive leadership, and a peer cohort of
Global Trainees across all Hilti business tracks globally.
What You’ll Bring
You are close to graduating or have recently completed a Master's degree - your degree is likely to be in construction
management, civil engineering, or mechanical engineering with a focus on construction, but we will consider Computer
Science, or Business with Software elements and an affinity with construction. What matters more than your degree
subject is the combination of traits below. All are required:
- Global mobility - you are willing and able to relocate internationally, multiple times. A global thinker who is keen
for diverse cultural experiences.
- Digital and AI orientation - you think natively in digital workflows, comfortable with software tools, and know the
power and potential of AI.
- Language - you are fluent in English and/or German, Dutch, French, Spanish or Italian.
- Commercial instinct - you are drawn to how businesses grow, how customers make decisions, and how products create.
- Low ego, high drive - you take the work seriously and yourself lightly. You seek feedback, move fast, and are
energised by ambiguity rather than unsettled by it.
- You are at the start of your career and have maximum three years of junior work experience.
What’s In It for You
Show us what you can do, and in return, we promise you the experience of a lifetime. We offer you a transformative
journey filled with learning, growth, and invaluable experiences that will shape your perspective and personal and
professional development. On top of that, you’ll also take part in some fascinating courses and events:
• Introductory Global Summit: Experience 4 days at our global headquarters in Liechtenstein, featuring the presence of
our Executive Board and Global Senior Leadership. The summit offers a comprehensive overview of our business, while
fostering soft skill development and meaningful collaboration with fellow program participants.
- Social Project Summit: 7 days dedicated to building a better future, with contribution to a hands-on, high-impact
community project. This experience offers the chance to immerse yourself in a different culture while actively
improving living conditions for those in need.
- Leadership Summit: An enriching learning journey in partnership with a renowned business school, featuring online
modules and collaborative projects with fellow program participants. The experience concludes with a 5-day on-campus
summit to deepen insights and to foster business and leadership skills.
