At Octopus we’ve developed a data platform that is used by all our 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 on anything from natural language understanding of our customer communications to processing billions of smart meter readings every day to support in creating customised and market leading smart energy tariffs.
We’re looking for an Engineer to join the team to help us build and maintain our platform, pipelines and reporting tools.
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 employ software engineering best practices to design, test, and deploy our data platform and services.
