From Octopus Energy Group's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
Welcome to the future of energy
Octopus is a tech-powered energy company. We believe technology has the power to address our greatest challenge, climate change, while also delivering incredible service and customer experience.
We are changing the way people interact with their energy company - by making it approachable, low cost, easy-to-understand, and most importantly, 100% renewable.
We’re hiring a Partner Operations Specialist to help build and scale the operational backbone of our rapidly growing Business Development and third-party partner network in Texas.
In this pivotal role, you will support new brokers, digital aggregators, and marketing partners joining Octopus Energy US, guiding them through a smooth, compliant onboarding process and ensuring our operational engine runs seamlessly.
Sitting directly within our Business Development team, you won't be tucked away behind static spreadsheets or stuck in routine call center queues. You will be the operational bridge connecting commercial partners, internal data engineers, finance, and retail operations. This is an exceptional opportunity for a detail-oriented, tech-forward problem solver to take real ownership of partner workflows, commission validation, and conversion analytics in a fast-growth scale-up.
Comfortable working with data in SQL and directly within the Databricks UI and Databricks Genie ecosystem to query datasets, build reports, and audit numbers.
Solid grasp of Texas retail electric market mechanics, TDSPs, ESI IDs, and customer switch workflows.
Ability to clearly explain technical processes, manage project timelines, and professionally interact with commercial business contacts.
A strong desire to ensure every step of a commercial contract, commission calculation, or onboarding workflow is completed accurately.
Hands-on experience actively leveraging modern AI tools—specifically the Gemini AI suite and
Claude Code
—to accelerate SQL query writing, analyze data anomalies, automate operational workflows, and build documentation, paired with the discipline to double-check and validate every output.
Comfortable operating autonomously through fast growth with light supervision, but humble enough to raise your hand when stuck.
Bonus points if you have: Prior experience in a Partner Operations, Revenue Operations, Commercial Analytics, or Account Management role at a Retail Electric Provider (REP) or energy tech company.
Direct experience handling retail energy commission structures, settlements, or billing exception logic.
A track record of taking a broken or manual reporting process and turning it into an automated workflow.
Why else you'll love it here: Real autonomy & ownership:
A flat structure where you own your domain and move fast with a team that backs you.
Accelerating the shift to a cheaper, greener grid with one of the world's most disruptive climate-tech companies.
Every Octopus employee owns part of the business.
Compensation
The expected salary range for this role is between $80,000 – $90,000 annually depending on the candidate's background & level of experience, but just ask us on your initial call—we always maintain flexibility to match experience with the right fit!
Fully paid medical, dental, and vision insurance for employees & their families.
20 days of paid vacation and 8 paid sick days annually.
401(k) plan with employer match (100% on the first 3%, 50% from 3–5%).
Our team works out of our Downtown Houston office 3 days a week with genuine flexibility for real work/life balance.
If this sounds like you then we'd love to hear from you.
Studies have shown that some groups of people, like women, are less likely to apply to a role unless they meet 100% of the job requirements. Whoever you are, if you like one of our jobs, we encourage you to apply as you might just be the candidate we hire. Across Octopus, we're looking for genuinely decent people who are honest and empathetic. Our people are our strongest asset and the unique skills and perspectives people bring to the team are the driving force of our success.
As an equal opportunity employer, we do not discriminate on the basis of any protected attribute. Our commitment is to provide equal opportunities, an inclusive work environment, and fairness for everyone.
