Product Manager for energy software optimizing smart devices and demand response programs.
Octopus Energy started with a bold idea: to build Britain’s first truly digital energy supplier. By combining world-class tech with brilliant humans who care deeply about customers and driving the renewable energy transition, we made it happen and in 2025, we became Britain’s largest energy supplier.
Octopus Energy Group is a global energy transition collective. 10 businesses working across 4 continents to tackle energy transformation at nearly every front.
And we constantly push to make energy better. Tirelessly campaigning for fair protections for customers. And building innovative technologies that forge a path to a green energy system.
We’re made up of 10,000+ authentic, committed people working around the world on stuff you'd never expect. We're united by a shared goal: to drive the global green energy revolution. Read our Spotlight series to meet some of the team.
About the role
OE Tech is the engineering and product organisation inside Octopus Energy. Here you’ll have real ownership, variety, and the chance to shape products that make a tangible difference in people’s lives: lowering bills, enabling greener living, and delivering experiences customers genuinely love. You’ll work side by side with teams across services, marketing, operations, and data, and see the impact of your work in the real world, fast.
In North America, Octopus recently invested in Uplight. We are looking for a Product Manager to join our OE Tech team, focused on our North American work at Uplight.
Uplight makes software that manages energy resources in homes and businesses, including things like smart thermostats, electric vehicles, solar panels, storage batteries, heat pumps, and even people’s behaviour, to generate, shift, or save energy to balance the grid, making it more efficient and reliable. This creates clean energy capacity that can be used by the power grid instead of burning more fossil fuels. These solutions are accelerating the transition to clean energy and saving money for energy customers.
Our goal is to ensure scaling up never means slowing down or compromising on a world-class customer journey for low carbon tech. In this role, you will be responsible for the core user experience of optimising smart devices - ensuring it’s seamless for customers and for the program managers managing demand response programs at scale. You’ll enable energy companies to predictably rely on the load shed of aggregated smart devices, such as smart thermostats, to ensure dispatch is scalable, resilient, and easy to use.
You’ll work side by side with engineers, customer operations, and field teams to shape the digital products that scale up electro-tech in homes.
We embrace flat hierarchies and an open, agile culture that fosters innovation, flexibility, and creativity. We don’t hang our personalities up with our coats and nor should you.
At Octopus, we hire great people who get stuff done, all whilst being themselves.
