As a TechOps Generalist, you’ll be a core contributor to the day-to-day delivery of TechOps services, working closely with the TechOps Lead and the wider global TechOps team. This is a role with real ownership. You’ll be trusted to take responsibility for problems and projects end-to-end, contribute to technical decision-making, and help shape how TechOps operates as we grow. We strongly believe that great TechOps starts with empathy. You’ll spend a significant portion of your time supporting Kraken employees directly, seeing first-hand the problems they face and helping ensure technology enables rather than blocks great work. We prioritise friendly, human support over SLAs or ticket numbers. Our aim is to deliver such a good experience that technology fades into the background, and when support is needed, it’s easy, human, and effective.
