Lead Software Engineer - Frontend (Kraken Field)

Kraken • Full-time • London • 2w ago

You might have seen some of Kraken field in the office but what do we actually do? So we deal with engineers in the field or people’s homes.

Kraken Field is building a standalone product. So that means we could be sold without Kraken customer but at the moment we are marketed to clients with Kraken customer. Right now we are working with Octopus Energy Services and their low carbon tech engineers to provide an exceptional client experience.

We’re making converting homes to green electrons as simple as possible, by building a platform to allow engineers to install smart meters, solar panels, heat pumps, EV chargers, and more.

We’re busy launching in new territories, working with ever more engineers and tech partners, building exciting new features at scale, and creating the integrated solution to retrofit homes across the world - all in the name of making it as easy and cheap as possible for customers to go green.
