Wir haben ehrgeizige Ziele und ein starkes Mutterunternehmen im Rücken. Weltweit versorgt Octopus Energy bereits über 5 Millionen Haushalte mit grüner Energie.
Du passt zu uns, wenn dein Herz nicht nur für Technologie schlägt, sondern auch für deine Kolleg*innen. Wir kommunizieren offen und transparent – mit unseren Kund*innen und mit unseren Mitarbeiter*innen. Sorge gemeinsam mit uns dafür, dass das Thema grüne Energie die Aufmerksamkeit bekommt, die es verdient – als spannendes Themenfeld, ganz ohne erhobenen Zeigefinger.
Our team
All technology is written and maintained by a multi-discipline engineering team of around 500 people globally. Our engineers work in ‘super teams’ which are focused on key domains of our platform as well as other innovative products. This also includes server-side, client-side and mobile engineers working closely with UX experts, copywriters and designers.
Teams are empowered to choose a way of working that works for them, often opting for a Kanban-like approach. Notion and Asana are then used to specify and manage work; Github, CircleCI and Terraform Enterprise as part of an immutable-infrastructure, continuous delivery pipeline; and Datadog, Sentry and Cloudwatch to measure performance and monitor production.
Some of our coding conventions are open-source .
Kraken is a great place to learn, work with talented engineers and have a lot of fun.
What you’ll do:
- We have lots of difficult design challenges to solve. The utilities market is complicated, outdated and process-heavy - there's an awful lot of domain modelling that we need to get right. Strong attention to detail is essential.
- We have challenging technical problems to solve; like processing tens of millions of meter readings a day. We need the right technology in place to handle this smoothly as well as feeding data into a machine learning pipeline that models and predicts consumption. Or thinking about how we adapt Kraken to improve other utilities like water and broadband.
- There's a great opportunity for disruption across the energy market. The big suppliers still dominate, but are not exactly popular. The energy landscape is changing as we move to more dis-aggregated forms of generation, with less predictability, more dynamism and smarter technology.
- You'll be working for a company that’s fighting climate change. Our generation arm is the largest investor in solar generation in the UK, and is funding wind and anaerobic digestion. As a supplier, we're helping people to use greener technology and renewable energy, all helping move the UK towards a lower carbon future.
What you’ll need:
- Good communication in English - other languages such as German, French, Italian or Spanish is a plus
- A general interest in technology and problem-solving; someone diligent and thoughtful. It would be helpful to have experience/expertise in the following (in rough priority order):
- Python
- Django (or equiv. web framework)
- Domain modelling
- HTTP and REST APIs
- Writing robust and fault-tolerant software
- Celery and async processing
- Postgres
- Plus experience in the following would be a bonus:
- AWS
- Terraform, Packer, Consul
- React and Redux
Our Benefits:
- An internationally positioned team with flat hierarchies and open and transparent communication
