We are very excited to be building a small and efficient TechOps team at Octopus.
We are looking for an ambitious, knowledgeable and experienced TechOps Team Lead with a passion for leading and managing great people, who are on a mission to tackle big challenges and drive innovation at Octopus Energy.
You will be a key partner in defining what TechOps is at Octopus.
We will be shaping this team to provide a world class support service to our employees, building our way out of problems with engineering firepower and undertaking transformational organisational change.
What is TechOps?
A more modern, more lean version of a traditional enterprise IT team.
We cover everything from what most people would call “1st line support” all the way up to high-level strategic planning, and everything in between.
We tackle big problems and the breadth of work is huge.
Dealing with ambiguity is a key part of working in TechOps, and every day will be a new and exciting one, working on varying challenges across the company.
We have a cloud-first approach to everything we do.
This allows us to scale quickly and focus on things where we can add the most value.

About the role As a TechOps Team Lead, you will be responsible for the day-to-day running of the Octopus TechOps team.

Collaborate closely with our Security team to ensure we strike the right balance between security, productivity and user experience.
