Senior software engineer

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

A great mission, flexibility and autonomy with direction in work, fantastic colleagues and a generally high level of care for employees.

Cons

We've been growing rapidly, so there's been a lot of change. It's been managed pretty well - better than most companies I've worked for - but there's always rough spots in such a transition.

Collaborative culture, great flexibility and a social team

Business Outlook

Pros

The team is easily the best part... everyone is approachable, highly intelligent, and genuinely friendly. Leadership are transparent, they are receptive to feedback and keep everyone in the loop. The work-life balance is also great... we have the autonomy to manage our time, and the flexibility is a huge bonus! Kraken is obsessed with improvement. There’s always a new tool, system, or training session being rolled out to help us work smarter and to grow personally. The team events are genuinely fun and help build a strong sense of community.

Cons

Global teams make collaboration over time zones a little tricky in some areas

Autonomy FTW

Lead software engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Fast-growing with lots of opportunities, caring/ capable colleagues and an empowered remote/ distributed work culture. A great chance to have fun working on a product that matters.

Cons

To succeed you need to be strongly self-directed and comfortable navigating what can feel at times like organised chaos. Salary is fair but deliberately not top-of-market - this is a mission driven firm.
