The posting

Help us use technology to make a big green dent in the universe!

Kraken https://kraken.tech/ powers some of the most innovative global developments in energy.

We create the technology that redefines utilities and unlocks a new energy system of the future. By optimising renewable generation, building a more intelligent grid, and empowering utilities to deliver an exceptional customer experience, our operating system is transforming the industry worldwide.

It’s an incredibly exciting time to work in energy. Join us on our mission to improve the lives of ONE BILLION humans within the decade and shape a cleaner, better future for everyone.

🏠 WHERE YOU'LL FIT IN:

Kraken’s technology is written and maintained by a multi-discipline engineering team of around 1,400 people globally, which includes server-side, client-side, and mobile engineers. We follow an agile way of working, where individual teams are given the freedom to choose the tools that are most appropriate for managing their work.

Kraken is a great place to learn, work with talented engineers and level-up your skills. Some of our coding conventions are open-source.

Engineer I roles (usually 1-3 years exp) are only available hybrid from Melbourne

Engineer II roles (usually 4-8 years exp) are available remotely within Australia or hybrid from Melbourne.

OUR TECHNOLOGY

Our backend developers use Python. Most of our websites are powered by Django and GraphQL (Graphene). Our CircleCI CI/CD pipeline runs tens of thousands of tests, deploying into AWS EKS defined by Terraform over 100 times per day and observed with tools like Sentry and Datadog. This allows us to move fast and at scale, without compromising reliability. Teams work differently but the commitment to quality is the same.

Developers at Kraken are empowered to use cutting-edge AI tools and models. Any generated code is still owned by a human.

WHAT WE DO

Kraken Engineering has multiple disciplinary groups with their own management structures and teams working together to create a unified Kraken that can be deployed to any territory in the world to achieve clients’ goals.

Client Engineering is the development arm responsible for making sure our clients receive the best possible experience and their needs are met with high quality solutions.

🚀 WHAT YOU'LL OWN:

We are currently hiring at both the Engineer I and Engineer II levels.

Eng I candidates are earlier in their backend careers. You will have more structured support and guidance as you build confidence, learn our large codebase and develop your technical career.

Eng II candidates should already be coding at a strong technical level similar to a senior engineer, but will still receive support for broader architectural complexity, cross-domain challenges and continued career growth.

We hire Engineers who have the skills and drive to keep growing. In this role, you will:

- Core Delivery: Solve complex domain modeling challenges in the energy sector, writing robust, fault-tolerant software primarily in Python, Django, GraphQL, Celery, and PostgreSQL.

- Code Quality & Testing: Write clean code alongside unit, integration, and functional tests covering happy path, boundary, and exceptional scenarios.

- Problem Solving & Debugging: Use structured methods to debug production issues, learn from failures, and build familiarity with a large, complex codebase.

- Documentation: Write clear, useful documentation for new and existing features to support your team and non-technical stakeholders.

- Collaboration: Share opinions respectfully, accept actionable feedback gracefully, and actively contribute to a supportive, growth-focused team culture.

For Eng II candidates, you will additionally:

- Feature Ownership & Observability: Confidently own and deliver medium-sized engineering problems, address system observability gaps, and manage technical escalations independently.

- Mentorship & Leadership: Mentor junior engineers, assist with onboarding new team members, and participate in hiring debriefs to help grow the engineering team.

- Cross-Domain Collaboration: Work confidently across domains to explain technical work, promote best engineering practices (performance, security, testability), and help brainstorm solutions.

🧠 WHAT YOU'LL BRING TO THE PARTY:

- Python & Django (or equivalent web framework)

- Domain modeling and architectural design

- GraphQL

- Writing robust and fault-tolerant software

- Celery and async processing

- PostgreSQL

⭐ Bonus points:

- AWS, Terraform, Kubernetes

- Experience with one or more frontend frameworks

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
