Hugo is a former boxer. He was a three-time Swedish Boxing Champion and a one-time Youth European Boxing Champion.

However, it was “Rocky,” the movie hero, who taught him the mental part of boxing – how to focus when he got confused by his opponent. Now Hugo has retired from boxing and is exploring new activities. He has realized that going into a fighting alter-ego was not true to his kind nature.
At Bondtech, Hugo is responsible for assembling extruders and checking SLS parts. He is a people person and enjoys the team atmosphere. Hugo always looks for new challenges and loves sharing his knowledge and experience with others.

She has been involved in various types of aid work and “women’s issues” through the Women’s Association in Sweden. There, she gets together with other women who are also from Bosnia.
Martin Bondéus
Bondtech Founder. Creator. Builder extraordinaire. Tirelessly in pursuit of improving whatever he sets his hands on.
Martin is a creator in and out of work. On the job, he usually develops 3D printing solutions; at home, he’s eternally improving the family abode. Even his vacations involve some sort of building project. This same passion for solving problems and making things, led him to start Bondtech.
He got his start in engineering, working for various firms, but it wasn’t until he got his hands on a 3D printer kit that he knew where his future lay. Being able to design something on the computer and have it in his hands a few moments later was incredibly exciting. When he and his son faced an issue with their first 3D printer, Martin did what he knew best and created a solution. It worked, so he decided to make it the focus of Bondtech. Today he gets to have most of his family working with him since his youngest, Isac, is still at school. “One thing that I really enjoy is having my two boys and wife working with me. It’s quite amazing, and we work really well together.”
Nermin Mlivic
Product Developer. Tech geek. Fisherman. Eternally curious about the inner workings of technology and mechanisms.
Nermin is a tech geek who delights himself learning about the inner workings of technology and mechanisms. As a kid, he was often found inspecting home appliances. From opening up LED TVs to being found in the engine room of his dad’s car, he was always trying to find out how things worked and how machines were wired.
Today, he is a Product Developer at Bondtech and the one who tested the CHT nozzle hundreds of times before it was finalized — he extruded 40 to 50 kg in two weeks. Nermin is a diver and a fisherman who finds solace in the sound of the water breaking against the sides of his boat. But even then, as his girlfriend says, he can’t keep still. He is either trolling or walking across the shore.
Nuno Santiago
Marketing & Sales Consultant. Walker. Avid learner. Prefers a simple and level-headed approach to life.
Santiago is an external consultant for Product, Sales and Marketing management at Bondtech, where he assists the Bondtech Marketing team on sales, branding and communication. With a strong academic training in management, he uses structure and organization to keep things flowing in an ever-changing environment.
Santiago has a relaxed and level-headed approach to life, never getting too happy or too sad — he is always “ok”. He has the same attitude with his hobbies; walking to work and to the supermarket every day to buy fresh food, cooking simple and easy dishes, and calling his family in Portugal daily. He spends his free time learning about finance, technology, science, and things he can’t do, like building and fixing cars and other machines. He tries to cram as much as he can into his day, eating once or twice daily and sleeping only six hours to save time. This leaves him with plenty of time to learn and grow.
Olof Ogland
Product integration designer, from the community and in constant touch with the community. Always 0.05 mm off on the first layer.
Olof was initially an active member and admin of the Prusa Community Forum where he got in touch with Bondtech and started collaborating on the Prusa extruder upgrade line of products. That sparked a career change for Olof and he soon joined our ranks.
His work is done in bursts where massive amounts of design happens over a short period of time, followed by a longer period of testing and optimization. There’s a saying that goes ”perfect is the enemy of good” which Olof strives to embrace. In his free time he also likes to do product development, but for First Person View drones where CNC cut carbon fiber frames meets 3d printed parts. What time is left that isn’t devoted to his family, he likes to use to keep in touch with the vast 3d printer community.
For Bondtech Olof does most of his work remotely from the Swedish archipelago just outside Stockholm.
Senida Karahmet
CNC Operator. Relaxed Baker. Burek Maker. Believes in enjoying the process and practice makes perfect.
Senida is a CNC operator at Bondtech. She is experienced in programming the machine and executing the necessary steps for production. She loves to challenge herself and is always striving to improve her skills.
Senida is also an avid baker. She loves spending quality time with her family in the kitchen. She especially loves to bake Burek, a typical Bosnian savory-filled pastry made with flaky phyllo dough. Her mother taught her to bake back in Bosnia, but it wasn’t until she moved to Sweden, and her husband asked her for some, that she perfected the recipe. Senida believes that the key to success in life is to take pleasure in the process and a lot of practice. Just like she adapted, changed and perfected her Burek’s recipe, at Bondtech, her production skills improve as she gains experience.
Zita
Mascote. Great friend. Stare master. Vegetable lover. Follows a relaxed approach to life, socializing with colleagues, getting plenty of restful sleep, and eating greens.
Zita is the official Bondtech mascot and pet, a Maltese Shih Tzu dog who visits all Bondtech’s departments every day. She loves to jump into any free chair she finds and curl up for a rest, and if she wants to get someone’s attention, she is not shy about staring into their eyes for as long as it takes – she may be small, but she’s certainly no pushover!
Zita’s favorite activity is rolling on the floor and showing off her belly in the hoping to get a cuddle or two. She also loves vegetables and can often be found snacking on bell peppers. Her bed is in the Pick & Ship area, where she usually spends her days snoozing away. Zita is a beloved member of the Bondtech family, and her presence is always guaranteed to bring a smile to the staff’s faces.
