Help us make a real impact on shaping a better, more sustainable future.Our teamAll technology is written and maintained by a multi-discipline engineering team of around 800 people. This includes server-side, client-side and mobile engineers working closely with UX experts, copywriters and designers. We follow a Kanban-like approach, using Google docs and Asana to specify and manage work; Github and CircleCI as part of an immutable-infrastructure, continuous delivery pipeline; and Sentry and Cloudwatch to measure performance and monitor production.  Kraken is a great place to learn, work with some talented engineers and level-up your skills.
