Job Description

At Kraken Technologies we’re looking to revolutionise the energy system to make power cheaper, greener and better for people around the world. Our tech platform β€˜Kraken’ is already licensed to support 40 million customer accounts in 14 countries, and we aim to serve 100 million globally by 2027.


Our Technology Team has grown extremely quickly as a result, tripling in size within the last 18 months. With this rapid growth, we are looking for a Database Reliability Engineer to join our Platform Engineering Department in Australia. You will need to be based in Australia and have a current right to work in Australia as well. We have an office in Melbourne if you'd like an office space but we also are open to someone working remote anywhere in Australia.


Our Global Platform Engineering department is responsible for architecting, developing, and maintaining the robust and scalable infrastructure, tooling, and services that power and support our platform. As a Database Reliability Engineer within the Platform department, you'll play a crucial role in ensuring the availability, performance, and integrity of our databases.


Your proficiency in database management and optimisation techniques will shape our approach, ensuring stability and high performance for our brands and clients.

Your analytical skills and attention to detail will be indispensable as you pinpoint areas for enhancement, ensure optimal database operations, and continuously improve our database reliability and efficiency.
