About the role

Octopus was founded with a mission to use technology to accelerate us towards a low-carbon future. That’s why we created Kraken - our own technology platform from scratch which now serves over 70 Million households and is a core reason why Octopus is the number one energy supplier in the UK.

We have been using GenAI in live, customer-facing environments since 2022, including one system that creates tens of thousands of high-quality emails for our Energy Specialists, combining our deep knowledge of the energy industry and the Octo communication style with customer-specific data from Kraken.

We are looking for an experienced AI Lead to drive our use of GenAI to the next level, building and executing a strategy to keep us at the forefront of tech innovation in the energy space. In particular, the successful candidate would start as a hands-on builder, whilst building out a strong team around them to deliver upon an ambitious strategy.

You’ll work on developing solutions that genuinely move us closer to Net Zero in a company passionate about building great technology to change the way customers use energy.
