**About you**

You want to use your skills to have impact. You’d be excited to work in a dynamic & fast-growing startup. You’re a builder & you're ambitious, comfortable taking a project from 0 to 1. You feel excited about the responsibility of shaping the direction of a pre-seed startup product. Sounds like you? Read on…

**About Us**  
Optiml is a PropTech startup with a mission to reduce costs & emissions in real estate through our automated decision-making software. In April 2024, we launched our product in the DACH region and the UK (soon US), and now, we’re at the stage where we need to ramp up our operations to meet demand.

We spun out of ETH Zurich in 2022 and have recently raised a $4M pre-seed extension from top-tier US and EU funds, including Innovation Endeavors (the fund of former Google CEO Eric Schmidt), Planet A, BitStone, and Kompas. Our software has gained significant recognition in the industry lately, winning some of the most prestigious awards for a (PropTech) startup: ULI PropTech Innovation, ZIA PropTech of the Year, W.A. De Vigier, and >> venture >>.

## Tasks

*   Develop the company’s core API, application logic & workflows.
*   Prototype new solutions to solve our customers' problems.
*   Own the whole development lifecycle: specs to production implementation.
*   Collaborate with peers on specs, architecture, design and code reviews.
*   Collaborate with Sales and Customer support to build our internal tooling.

## Requirements

**Attitude**

*   _Highly Self-Motivated_: You are able to quickly and efficiently execute tasks, demonstrating strong initiative and self-drive.
*   _You Get Things Done_: You prioritize speed and flexibility, adept at making swift compromises to maintain momentum, while delivering quality results.
*   _Lateral thinker_: You regularly step back to look at the broader picture. Changing the problem statement is sometimes faster and better than investing two weeks in a complex task.
*   _Analytical and Self-Reflective_: You analyze your performance and continuously seek ways to improve.
*   _Kind and Humorous_: You bring kindness and humor to the team, enhancing both morale and collaboration.

**Experience**

*   2+ years of software engineering experience.
*   Experience with Python.
*   Track record of shipping high quality features fast.
*   Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English.
*   Swiss or EU citizenship.

**Bonus**

You definitely don’t need everything in this list but if you do, make sure to bring it up in the screening questions.

*   Startup experience.
*   Interest/experience in energy simulations.
*   Experience with C++, optimization, ML.
*   Experience in Devops: Docker, Terraform, GCP, CI/CD, Monitoring.
*   Experience with Frontend: React, FastAPI.
*   Experience in coding/ML competitions.

## Benefits

*   Remote work and flexible hours
*   25 days paid vacation, flexible parental leave
*   Learning and development budget of CHF 1k (conferences, certificates, etc.)
*   Shit happens: 100% accident non-occupational accident insurance (UVG) covered
*   Simply because we love it ourselves: snacks in plenty in the office 🙂
*   Unique opportunity to learn: try, fail, iterate, and build new skills every day - in a culture that values growth & development
