About our Data Platform Team

At Kraken we've developed a data platform that that is used by Octopus Energy and our other clients retail energy businesses around the world. The platform empowers users with self-service data analytics and automates our data processing workflows, from simple ETL jobs to ML training and prediction.

The data platform team works across the whole customer domain on anything from natural language understanding of our customer communications to processing billions of smart meter readings every day to support clients in creating customised and market leading smart energy tariffs.

As the volume, scope and geographical range of our data offerings rapidly expand, we're looking for an experienced Product Manager to join the team to help us build and maintain our platform, pipelines and data sources.

We're passionate about building great technology to change the way customers use, and think about, energy for the good of the planet. This is a fantastic opportunity to work with us on data problems that genuinely move us closer to Net Zero, and support the energy transition.

We would prefer someone who can work in our London office but will consider remote candidates. However, you do need to be able to work in the UK.

We're very excited to be growing our team. We're looking for skills and experience to help shape and define the future of not only our team, but the wider business at a global scale. If you're reading this and grinning, please apply! There are huge challenges to tackle, and we need amazing people who are keen to get stuck in.

What you'll need...

To be able to recognise what needs to be done (and, just as importantly, what doesn’t need to be done right now) based on the overall goals of the team and our strategic direction.

Experience in data products, and understanding of how data systems work at a low level

To be able to work in a dynamic environment. Fantastic ideas come from everywhere in Kraken Technologies, so you’ll need to be able to spot and harness them. Experience in a fast-paced start-up or scale-up would be a plus.

To be curious and willing to roll up your sleeves. For example, this might mean learning some development skills; helping to build out and prioritise our tech hiring roadmap; using SQL to gain further understanding of a problem; or even editing some code.

To have excellent written and verbal communication skills and an ability to interact with people with varying levels of technical knowledge.

It would be great if...

You have knowledge of utilities or energy markets.

You have knowledge of working with data at scale.
