Octopus Electroverse – Software Engineering /

Full-time /

Hybrid

We're making electric vehicle ownership as smart and simple as possible, by building the world's largest public charging platform.

In just four years, Octopus Electroverse has grown to become one of the largest eMobility players globally, with over 1,000,000 connected electric vehicle chargers and a customer ecosystem spanning web, iOS, Android, CarPlay, Android Auto & Automotive OS, and more.

But it's just the start: we're busy expanding internationally, working with more automotive and tech partners, building exciting new features at scale, and creating the integrated charging experiences of the future - all in the name of making public EV charging super simple for customers.

Electroverse is a multifunctional team made up of product, development, commercial, operations, marketing, partnerships teams, and more - all focused together on making Octopus the go-to name in EV charging. And we're looking for smart individuals with an interest in the space who can help us make it happen.

This Role:

We're looking for someone who's passionate about code, curious, and eager to learn. You'll be working alongside the backend team that provides services for our Electroverse ecosystem in the electric vehicle and electrification space with focus on helping develop the core functionality of our business. You'll help us develop solutions for processing payments, analyse financial traffic and aid us in detecting suspicious activity.

Our project is establishing itself as the leading e-mobility provider solution within the industry and we want to take it to the next level. This means we're working on big features which will give you the chance to have a huge impact and, given our ambitions in the electrification space, influence how the back-end scales to meet new challenges and create a wider ecosystem.

Overall, you'll work with a small, high-energy project team to bring the product to life - an exciting opportunity to work like a start-up within a rapidly scaling EnTech business.

What You'll Do…

  • Help us improve the core product by developing and improving our financial system
  • Help improve the accuracy of our financial reporting and payment success rates across our existing and potential payment providers
  • Build tools to detect and monitor fraudulent operations, help develop risk analysis and prevent malicious behaviour
  • Work as part of a larger cross-functional team to deliver the best quality product for our clients
  • Support the Operations team in resolving payments-related customer issues and the Financial team in building accurate reporting systems

What You'll Have.

  • Passion to create something amazing, and the mindset to learn and grow with the company
  • A strong understanding of the Python and Django ecosystems with 3+ years of experience
  • Knowledge of payment providers, e.g. Stripe / Adyen / WorldPay
  • Experience with Fraud and Risk analysis
  • Experience with KYC/KYB products and flows
  • Experience with billing and invoicing flows
  • Experience with monitoring and debugging applications and infrastructure
  • Experience maintaining asynchronous processing systems (AMQP, Celery)
  • An ability to discuss vision and features within a team and propose creative solutions
  • Knowledge of common security practices
  • Familiarity with continuous integration and continuous deployment
  • An ability to write robust and fault-tolerant software
  • Proficient understanding of Git

If this sounds like you then we'd love to hear from you.

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.
