Over the last year we have built this team from scratch to re-architect, design, and develop our Kraken software platform to solve complex industry wide problems within the water and broadband sectors (customer experience, water leak detection software). The Kraken Utilities team is now 50+ engineers and have already signed 4 clients (Portsmouth Water, Severn Trent, Leep, and Cuckoo Broadband). 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.

We use an immutable infrastructure approach to manage our AWS environments. We heavily use EKS, RDS Aurora, AmazonMQ, S3 and EventBridge in our platform architecture. We practise continuous deployment and release new versions of Kraken around 200 times per day. Engineering standards are high. We pair program, thoroughly review and test code before it deploys, and maintain fast, high-value test suites.

Many 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.

Hybrid - 2 Days per week in the office Why RVU? At RVU we combine the close-knit and agile environment of a startup, with the know-how, technology and backing of a well-established company. Our mission is to empower people to make confident decisions. With our unique set of brands, including Uswitch, Money.co.uk and Mojo, we have the power to reach millions of consumers and the technology to deliver a world class online experience for them. What's the opportunity? You'll sit with the team that owns the Uswitch Mobile App as well as the wider energy comparison journey and services that power the app. The app is built on React Native for both iOS and Android and distributed on the App Store and Google Play Store respectively. The team needs engineers with mobile app experience to build on and improve the current feature set of the app, as well as any essential maintenance and BAU. The current focus for the team is testing engaging experiences which provide simple ways for users to manage and optimise their household bills. This involves data visualisation and analysis as well as building journeys to support customer decision making. Upcoming projects include a broader comparison experience expanding away from Uswitch's traditional utilities comparison and switching products. What will I be doing?
