This role sits at the intersection of backend engineering and AI, particularly working with Large Language Models (LLMs) to transform knowledge management systems. The position offers an opportunity to make a significant impact on climate change through technology, as Kraken is the largest investor in solar generation in the UK.

The role involves building internal platforms and tooling to support Kraken's rapidly growing international business.
