In the UK, with a legally binding Net Zero target for 2050 and a clean-power ambition for 2030, we are scaling rapidly to integrate Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) into the grid. Kraken is recognised as a thought leader and innovator. With complete independence from Octopus Energy, we are building a SaaS business that digitally connects hundreds of thousands of DERs with energy markets. As our UK fleet grows and we support our expansion across Europe, we are looking for an Integrations Engineer to help turn customer sites into market-connected, controllable assets. 🏠 Where you’ll fit in and role summary As we scale our fleet of integrated assets, we are looking for an Electrical Engineer to support the delivery of our site integrations and grow into owning them, learning the full lifecycle from the early information stage through design, deployment and testing. You’ll be part of an engineering delivery team, based in Manchester, who take an integration project from the very early information stage, design how it will be integrated into Kraken’s platform and then turn that design into a live, controllable, market-participating asset. Engineering delivery is an innovative and engineering-focused team with a culture that fosters collaboration and fresh thinking to create a new energy system. Alongside design, deployment and testing; they constantly look into ways to improve efficiency through tooling and the automation of repetitive tasks.

Gateway application & configuration: Learn how the Gateway software (developed by an internal software team) works and how it is configured. Understand the requirements for an integration and judge if the gateway software is able to support it or will need new development work. The team will help you get gateway configuration literate and you will carry out deployments and changes independently over time. Hardware and Software Deployments: Learn the process of our hardware and software deployments. Over time, take ownership of the configuration, deployment and testing with guidance from the senior engineers. Networking and cyber security: Contribute to hardware and network connectivity designs, keeping our own cyber security posture in mind as well as addressing the concerns from customers, with the support of the internal security team. Site testing & commissioning: Carry out site testing and commissioning initially with the support of the team and building toward doing this independently as onboarding demand grows.
