Along the way, you’ll chat with our recruitment team and your Recruiter will help you throughout different stages. Got any burning questions before then? Drop us a message at talent@octoenergy.com and we’d love to help! Are you ready for a career with us? We want to ensure you have all the tools and environment you need to unleash your potential. Need any specific accommodations? Whether you require specific accommodations or have a unique preference, let us know, and we'll do what we can to customise your interview process for comfort and maximum magic! Studies have shown that some groups of people, like women, are less likely to apply to a role unless they meet 100% of the job Requirements. Whoever you are, if you like one of our jobs, we encourage you to apply as you might just be the candidate we hire. Across Octopus, we're looking for genuinely decent people who are honest and empathetic. Our people are our strongest asset and the unique Skills and perspectives people bring to the team are the driving force of our success. As an equal opportunity employer, we do not discriminate on the basis of any protected attribute. Our commitment is to provide equal opportunities, an inclusive work environment, and fairness for everyone. **Live in Octoenergy’s hiring system.** Read from the company's own applicant tracking system, not reposted from a job board — so it's a real, open requisition rather than an ad that outlived the role. We remove it as soon as it disappears at source. ## More jobs like this - BJ [Backend Engineer, AI (Agent Systems)](https://gurify.com/job/backend-engineer-ai-agent-systems-at-bjak-71cec5b08766) Bjak · United Kingdom · yesterday - ZU [Senior Backend Engineer (Ruby) - Zuno Tech Group](https://gurify.com/job/senior-backend-engineer-ruby-zuno-tech-group-at-zunogroup-7fb1cd337627) Zunogroup · London · 3 weeks ago - ZE [Lead Backend Engineer](https://gurify.com/job/lead-backend-engineer-at-zego-ced8e35af07c) Zego · London · last week - MK [Senior Backend Engineer](https://gurify.com/job/senior-backend-engineer-at-m-kopa-af697bad07c0) M Kopa · London · 2 weeks ago - WH [(Senior) Backend Engineer, Marketplace](https://gurify.com/job/senior-backend-engineer-marketplace-at-wheely-7bb4f50a79d3) Wheely · London, United Kingdom · 2 weeks ago - BJ [Senior Backend Engineer, Platform & Integrations](https://gurify.com/job/senior-backend-engineer-platform-integrations-at-bjak-7c9dec16f563) Bjak · United Kingdom · 4 weeks ago ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org/","@type":"JobPosting","title":"Octopus Energy Group","description":"\u003Cp\u003EAbout Octopus Electroverse\u003Cbr /\u003EWe\u2019re making electric vehicle public charging simple, by building the giant, virtual charging platform of the future.
