We’re building something big

Public procurement is a $2 trillion a year industry that shapes the lives of all Americans—and it’s (mostly) offline.

Pavilion builds technology infrastructure that public servants use to deliver better, faster public services from a wider and more diverse set of businesses. We’re building a ‘big tent’ in service of this mission—and you can help.

When it comes to meaningful work, public procurement is “all that”

Public procurement is a massive industry that shapes the lives of all Americans. It’s government’s sexiest problem - and it’s been here in glasses and a sweater the whole time. 

We're hungry for large-scale positive impact

We’re building Pavilion to improve lives at scale by making government purchasing work better. We’re ambitious about building a successful venture-scale business that unlocks massive social impact upside. Expertise in scaling venture-backed tech companies with experience in public service is in our team’s DNA.

We’re super collaborative

Ask us about launching a first-of-its-kind government partnership in under a week, how everyone on the team participates in user research calls and customer support requests on rotation, or how we love solving crosswords as a team.

We’re unabashedly earnest

Ask us about how we celebrate our wins in #shoutouts, what we do at Thursday Time, and how we like to combine our musical talents and passion for public procurement.
