From optimizing resources to delivering cost-effective, exceptional customer experiences through advanced Customer Information Systems (CIS), billing, meter data management, CRM, and AI-driven communications, Kraken is powering the next wave of innovation in the energy industry.Why we do it: future energy will not look like energy as we know it today. We need to not just think about our future, but build for it. Now.Our teamAll technology is written and maintained by a multi-discipline engineering team of around 950 people globally. 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.

There's a great opportunity for disruption in the energy market. The big suppliers still dominate but are not exactly popular. The energy landscape is changing as we move to more disaggregated forms of generation, with less predictability, more dynamism, and smarter technology.
