Software Engineer position at Otani Trading
Who we are
Otani Trading is a family-owned business founded in 1922 and headquartered in Niigata, Japan. Operations include dealing in tools & machinery, engineering services, software development, foods & beverages, and cut flowers. Otani’s Singapore operation started in 2019 with the purpose of expanding Otani’s operations internationally. Our Singapore operation is the fastest-growing subsidiary within the Otani group even as we have been battling the negative effects of the global pandemic hindering international trade. In order to cater to increased demand in the Middle East and beyond, an office was set up in Dubai Silicon Oasis in 2022.
What we do
At our Dubai office, we arrange wholesale cut flower shipments to/from over 25 countries in the form of triangular trade through our in-house developed B2B portal (www.flowermeister.com) that connects flower growers from around the world with flower importers around the world. Otani also provides various software and hardware solutions for flower farms, flower exporters, flower importers, flower shops, logistics companies, and other companies involved in the flower industry. We are in a unique position to be able to offer IT and other automation solutions to the flower industry as experts in both engineering and international flower trade.
Who we are looking for
Do you want to be a small part of a big machine, or a big part of a small machine?
We are clearly looking for the latter. We are looking for the starting members of our Dubai development team who actively want to create new value using new technologies, methods, and principles. People who are tired of the limited scope they are given and want to do more may find their calling with Otani.
You may think that the flower world is far from the technological epicenter, but we do create and maintain several systems, some developed using cloud native designs connecting thousands of B2B users, and others interacting with industrial equipment and IoT Devices, and yet others with direct integrations with banks and other fintech companies processing millions of dollars monthly.
Although Otani Trading is 100 years old, our Dubai operation is essentially a start-up. We are therefore looking for candidates who wish to create their own career paths while creating a new business, rather than follow a rigid job description with a constrained scope.
Enthusiasm to learn new things and an interest to create something new are far more important than any previous experience.
If you are looking to do something different with a wide range of responsibilities dealing with 25 countries around the world within a small but dynamic and global team, while leveraging the latest Web technologies and Fintech, and interacting with industrial equipment and IoT devices, this position might be for you.
The Details
Salary : AED8,000 ~ AED15,000
Responsibilities:
(not everything at the same time)
Requirement
What languages/technologies/frameworks we use will depend on the project requirements, but the go-to setup at the moment when we have a choice is Python on the backend and VueJS using NuxtJS/Vuetify on the frontend, deployed through AWS Amplify in a serverless manner. But this will no doubt change as new technologies are released. If interactions with industrial equipment or IoT equipment are needed, Java or even C may be used. We do not expect candidates to be experts in all above mentioned areas, but we do expect them to have rudimentary knowledge, but more importantly interest, in all areas with expertise in at least one of the areas.
