EIRIK OTIS PRODUCT · COMMERCIAL · TECHNICAL EXECUTION

I work across product, commercial and technical execution to move complex ideas into the real world.

Building products, systems and market opportunities—especially where the problem is complex, the path is unclear and ownership matters.

01

SELECTED WORK

Evidence of range.

Products and systems I have helped define, build or operate—across financial infrastructure, quantitative research and live markets.

02

Autonomous quantitative research system

Bittensor AutoResearch

Creator & System Designer

Designed and built an end-to-end quantitative research system for Bittensor subnet markets, combining market-data infrastructure, feature engineering, machine-learning models, portfolio simulation and recursive LLM-assisted experimentation.

OPERATING RANGE

One operator. Multiple points of leverage.

The most valuable early-stage work rarely fits cleanly inside one function. I work across the product, commercial and technical layers required to move an opportunity forward.

01

Product Ownership

Turning an incomplete idea into a defined product, an executable plan and a working release.

02

Commercial Execution

Finding where the opportunity is, creating the right conversation and converting interest into practical next steps.

Technical Systems

Building and directing the systems required to test ideas, automate work and produce usable products.

04

Operations & Strategy

Creating structure where responsibilities, information and decisions are still unclear.

Ambiguous problem solvingOperational designFinancial modellingRisk analysisStakeholder coordinationDecision frameworksCross-functional ownership

Technically capable enough to build real systems, direct implementation and work effectively with stronger specialist engineers.

03

PROFESSIONAL FOUNDATION

Built across institutions, startups and independent systems.

Different environments. The same expectation: understand the system, create structure and take responsibility for the outcome.

WORKING STYLE

How I work

01

Find the real constraint

Most problems are misdiagnosed before they are badly solved.

02

Build the system, not just the feature

The product is the interaction between technology, incentives, behaviour, operations and economics.

03

Ship to create information

A functioning system produces better evidence than another round of abstract planning.

04

Own the outcome

The quality of decisions changes when responsibility extends beyond completing a narrow task.

05

PERSONAL CONTEXT

Beyond the work

Interested in artificial intelligence, markets, decentralised systems, product design, quantitative research and how small teams create disproportionate outcomes.

Away from screens: running, football, chess, travel, nature and scuba diving.

something difficult.

Open to conversations with ambitious teams working on technically complex products, new markets and difficult commercial problems.
