Through that relentless growth we still put customers at the heart of everything we do.

That's how we've got five stars on TrustPilot based on over 100,000 customer reviews and why consumer champions “Which?” have named us a Recommended Provider for the last five years in a row. We've also reached 4.8 on our Italian Trustpilot.

We're fighting to make energy fairer, more affordable, greener and more accessible for all.

Jump to all roles we're hiring for in italy.

We're shaking up the energy market and decarbonising our planet, using technology to unlock the green energy revolution. Our global energy revolution is backed by Generation, the sustainable fund co-chaired by Al Gore.

Octopus Energy Italia is looking to revolutionise the Italian energy sector.

To do this we need to grow with passionate people to help us do this, we have diverse roles ready to be filled across our Italian teams and need authentic, committed people for a wide range of roles.

We're in a start-up phase which means that you will be able to shape the future of energy in Italy from day one.

What you'll need

First and foremost, we want our data engineers to be great software engineers with a passion for writing high quality code
Python
Web scraping and crawling libraries
SQL
Spark
Experience modelling data for analytics - ideally experience using dbt as a modelling tool
Experience in assuring data quality
Experience deploying data services in a cloud environment (ideally AWS)

Our Data Stack

Kubernetes for data services and task orchestration
Airflow purely for job scheduling and tracking
Circle CI for continuous deployment
Parquet and Delta file formats on S3 for data lake storage
