We are currently in a very exciting growth phase. Together with the rest of the team, you will bring the same revolutionary customer experience, operational excellence and speed of innovation that Kraken is powering across energy retailers to other sectors. \n\n\nAs Head of Engineering for the Water Industry, your main responsibility will be to manage 4~5 sub-teams working on building the water product and implementing Kraken for water utilities.

We practise continuous deployment and release new versions of Kraken around 200 times per day.\n\n\nEngineering standards are high. We pair program, thoroughly review and test code before it deploys, and maintain fast, high-value test suites. We have weekly tech talks, a day a month devoted to sharpening our internal tools, upgrading dependencies, paying off technical debt - we call it “spa day” - and we can often be found at tech meet-ups and conferences.\n\n\nMany of our coding conventions are open-source and we maintain a tech blog. Kraken is a great place to learn, work with some talented engineers and level-up your skills. \n\n\n\nWhat you'll do:\n* Lead and scale the Kraken Utilities water team, overseeing a talented group of over 25 engineers.\n* Embed a great engineering, problem solving and customer-first culture\n* Provide leadership and mentorship to 5~7 engineering leads to build high-performing teams.\n* Ensure that the engineering team ships consistently high quality, reliable, scalable, secure and performant software.\n* Architect new components of the Kraken platform and drive continuous development to meet evolving client needs.\n* Collaborate with client stakeholders to facilitate smooth migration and adoption of our platform as a service (SaaS).\n* Work closely with the existing Kraken team to help build a consistent platform\n* Collaborate closely with the Telco team to ensure consistency \n* Communicate with a wide range of stakeholders (technical and non technical). \n\n\n\nWhat you'll need:\n* Technical depth and breadth to drive the future development of the platform\n* Structured problem solving skills to decompose and solve ambiguous problems \n* Ability to hack a quick prototype and to properly architect a system design (and the ability/pragmatism to decide when to do what)\n* Inspirational leadership style and entrepreneurial energy\n* Past experience in one of the areas like enterprise software, Large scale transaction processing, AI and machine learning software is desirable\n* Scaling up platforms serving a few geographies and 10X millions to multi geography multi entity 100X millions would be ideal\n* Familiarity with key technology components underpinning Kraken’s stack ie python, django, django-REST-framework, AWS, kubernetes, terraform, react and graphQL, is required\n* Experience managing teams of teams (20+ engineers is desired). \n* Stakeholder management experience. \n\n\n\nWhy you'll love it here:\n* Wondering what the salary for this role is?
