👋 About Us
Otera is the enterprise-grade Agentic Automation platform enabling teams to put their complex knowledge work on autopilot. By combining Agentic AI, business process digitization, and no-code development in a single platform, teams can create AI apps in minutes to achieve 90%+ straight-through processing.
With €15 million raised in a Series A funding round co-led by Red River West, Alpha Intelligence Capital, and Hoxton Ventures, and the support of existing investors Lunar Ventures and Stride VC, we are accelerating our vision to become the go-to provider for AI-driven automation solutions across the globe.
Otera is already trusted by global enterprise leaders, including Allianz, Siemens, Bayer, SAAB, and Hannover Re.
💼 About The Role
As a Head of Engineering, you will lead our engineering function with a hands-on approach, owning architecture, development quality, and technical scalability- while aligning closely with company strategy and product goals. This role is not for a pure people manager- It’s for someone who lives and breathes code, makes sharp architectural calls, and drives clarity and speed through solid engineering processes.
