Kraken is the technology behind Octopus Energy. 
Energy is changing.
For years, it was an industry dominated by large suppliers using outdated systems that put profits first and customers last. Now, we’re using the latest technology and green generation to transform energy for customers, bringing the UK cheaper, greener, and fairer energy.
We enjoy the best of both worlds: backing from a £6bn business of highly experienced and talented individuals, and the dynamic environment of a start-up.
On the retail side, Octopus Energy is a Which? Recommended energy supplier, six years in a row (they’ve never given it to another supplier more than twice), and uSwitch’s Supplier of the Year three of the past five years.
On the SaaS side, Kraken is licensed to businesses globally, including EDF Energy, Good Energy, E.ON Energy, and Origin Energy – to support 24 million customers worldwide.
You’ll be working for a company that’s fighting climate change. We’re the largest investor in solar generation in the UK, and are funding wind and anaerobic digestion. We’re helping people to use greener technology and renewable energy, all helping move the UK towards a lower carbon future.
And for big change, we need big minds.
We’re Charging Kraken to power utilities beyond energy (think water, broadband,..) and have created a new business Kraken Utilities. We are building this team from scratch and are looking for engineers for Kraken Utilities to help us build and scale the team, implement a good culture and work on some really exciting tech challenges. 
You'll be joining a small frontend function (2-4 engineers) within the utilities team - with close support and collaboration from the wider Kraken team.
Together with the rest of the team, you will bring the same revolutionary customer experience, operational excellence and speed of innovation that Kraken is powering across energy retailers to other sectors.
Octopus is a great place to learn, work with some talented engineers and level-up your skills.
