At Otis, our sole mission is to democratize wealth. However, this is a hard problem. As an engineer on the Otis team, you'll help us overcome a variety of challenges to make this dream a reality.

Full time vs part time

First, a quick note. The items below are an assortment of projects, to give an example of the diversity of challenges we tackle. Some of them are small, like solving N+1 problems, while some of them are thousands of times more massive, like building a secondary trading experience.

For a full time role, you'll mostly work on bigger projects and sub-tasks that ladder up into those projects. For a part time role, you'll likely get more tasks and small projects.
