What we do. Electric Car Leasing
Why we do it. Greener. Fairer. Future.
We are looking for an experienced Platform Engineer to join our team in the development of one of Octopus Group's most exciting businesses, and help accelerate the British driving public on their energy transition.
We are building a whole new way for drivers to join the electric revolution and not only learn about and shop for their EV online, but experience a 'lease for life' through an industry changing customer experience.
The engineering team is crucial in bringing this vision to life, working as part of a wider Product team that collaborates hand in hand with teams across the company to deliver it in a record time.
We’re excited that our engineering team and infrastructure is at the size and scale where we’re in a position to hire our first dedicated senior platform engineer. This is a great opportunity for someone who wants to be hands-on, have ownership of building a small platform team, have technical leadership and possible people management.
