Senior Backend Engineer - Low Carbon Tech (LCT)

Octopus Energy started with a bold idea: to build Britain’s first truly digital energy supplier. By combining world-class tech with brilliant humans who care deeply about customers and driving the renewable energy transition, we made it happen and in 2025, we became Britain’s largest energy supplier. Now, we’re scaling our services business, making it easy to switch to heat pumps, solar and EVs, and launching smart tariffs for Low Carbon Tech. With this, we’re also taking the learnings, products and experiences that customers love here and rolling them out worldwide. OE Tech is the engineering and product organisation inside Octopus Energy. Here you’ll have real ownership, variety, and the chance to shape products that make a tangible difference in people’s lives: lowering bills, enabling greener living, and delivering experiences customers genuinely love. You’ll work side by side with teams across services, marketing, operations, and data, and see the impact of your work in the real world, fast. We are looking for a Senior Backend Engineer to join our Low Carbon Tech team.  We are installing EV Chargers, Solar, Batteries and Heat Pumps into homes to drive the energy transition at pace. As customer demand grows, our goal is to ensure scaling up never means slowing down or compromising on a world-class customer journey for low carbon tech. To make that happen, we are building a new, dedicated engineering and product team to completely re-imagine this process - making it fast, transparent, and predictable for our customers from day one. This will be a small multi-disciplinary team who’ll sit within our much bigger low carbon tech team. You’ll help design and build the platform architecture, data integrations, and automations that eliminate real world friction. If you want to design and build solutions to scale up electrotech in the nation’s homes, this is the mission for you. We embrace flat hierarchies and an open, agile culture that fosters innovation, flexibility, and creativity. We don’t hang our personalities up with our coats and nor should you. At Octopus, we hire great people who get stuff done, all whilst being themselves.
