About this role

Help us use technology to make a big green dent in the universe!
Kraken powers some of the most innovative global developments in energy.
We’re a technology company focused on creating a smart, sustainable energy system. From optimising renewable generation, creating a more intelligent grid and enabling utilities to provide excellent customer experiences, our operating system for energy is transforming the industry around the world in a way that benefits everyone.
It’s a really exciting time in energy. Help us make a real impact on shaping a better, more sustainable future.

Who are we looking for?
We’re looking for an influential data and analytics leader who’s excited to work directly with clients — helping them build modern data capabilities, coach on data best practices, and help them get transformative from Kraken data.
You should bring experience leading a high-performing analytics or data team; a love of working with clients; and a passion for driving the clean energy transition. (Energy experience nice-to-have, but definitely not required.)
The role
You’ll work directly with Kraken clients to help them develop modern, transformative data and analytics capabilities as part of their broader Kraken transformation. You’ll:
- Guide them as they rebuild critical reporting & analytics on Kraken data.
- Coach client teams on “what good looks like” in analytics practices — including roles, tools, and processes.
- Occasionally get hands-on with sample SQL or BI to help unblock or demonstrate.
- Translate client needs into clear input for Kraken product and engineering.
You won’t be an implementation manager or a full-time analyst. This is a hybrid role: part coach, part practitioner, part translator — helping clients both adopt Kraken data smoothly and build lasting data capabilities to drive their transformation. Perfect for someone with strong data leadership chops who wants more client face-time and a high-impact role.
This is one of the early hires onto a new client-facing data team, giving you a chance to play a strategic role in establishing vision, practices, and playbook.

What you'll do:

  • Guide clients in redefining critical reporting and analytics to use new Kraken data and concepts, through working sessions, trainings, and occasional SQL/BI examples.
  • Coach client data teams on best practices and help them spot gaps in skills, roles, tools, or process.
  • Help clients identify reporting & analytics outcomes they need Kraken to drive and partner with product to deliver these
  • Train Kraken’s broader client delivery team on how to ask effective data questions and leverage data to drive business impact.
  • What you'll need:

  • 8+ years of experience in data analytics, business intelligence or related field (e.g., analytics manager or director, data consultant, lead data analyst, analytics engineer)
  • Familiarity with SQL and modern BI tools – enough to recognize and speak to what “good” looks like & construct examples
  • Excellent communications, collaboration and presentation skills
  • Strong grasp of modern data practices (team structure, tools, ways of working)
  • Experience working in an agile, product-led context
  • Excitement for a fast-paced, high-autonomy, fun environment
  • Strong influencing skills and ability to challenge traditional ways of thinking
  • Experience leading data teams
  • Culture fit:

  • Passionate about leading, motivating and developing others
  • Passionate about helping customers (without them, we don’t exist)
  • Passionate about technology (we are a tech business disrupting energy)
  • Committed to sustainability (we are all about speeding up the shift to a more sustainable world)
  • Open minded, flexible and adaptable (we are constantly growing, changing and evolving)
  • Confident in decision making
  • Supportive
  • Approachable
  • Inclusive
  • Resilient, working well under pressure
  • Why else you'll love it here:

  • Great medical, dental, and vision insurance options including FSAs.
  • Paid time off — we know working hard means also being able to recharge as needed, we trust our employees to get the work done and take the time they need.
  • 401(k) plan with employer match.
  • Parental leave. Biological, adoptive and foster parents are all eligible.
  • Pre-tax commuter benefits.
  • Flexible working environment: you need to shift around your schedule? You do you, we genuinely believe in work/life balance.
  • Equity Options: every Octopus employee owns part of the business. We’re a team, working together towards huge goals. Every person is crucial to our success, you should be rewarded as such.
  • Modern office or co-working spaces depending on location.
  • We're hiring at both the senior and mid levels. The salary range in NYC ranges on average from $140,000-$240,000 depending on level, relevant experience, role alignment, and technical/client management expertise demonstrated throughout the interview process.
