What will you be doing?
Members of the Kraken Tech team need to be shining examples of the Octopus Way and believe in decision making based on simplicity, customer benefit and efficiency. We are excited about how Kraken can change the lives of customers and operations teams in other companies and convinced that Kraken is the best answer, not only for companies, but as a tool to tackle the climate crisis.  

We are fundamentally changing the way that energy companies work. We put customer happiness and cost competitiveness first with great people, technology and ways of working.

If you love making things better for customers, building great products, working with technology, bringing people together to find solutions, then you’ve come to the right place. 

We are a flat and agile organisation and plan to remain this way.

They will bring technology, people and processes together to innovate improvements for our clients.

They will deal with complexity across multiple customer journeys with a variety of customer types and end users.  This person will play a critical role in bringing all the right people together to deliver the roadmap.
