About us
Loop IQ is a purpose-built intelligence platform helping care organisations move beyond fragmented spreadsheets and manual reporting — delivering the accuracy, auditability, and confidence that regulated environments demand. Alongside the platform sits our strategic consulting wing, guiding organisations through implementation and optimisation so the technology delivers from day one.
Why work at Loop IQ?
Build something that matters — We’re solving a real problem in a sector that affects millions of Australians. The work you do here has a direct line to better outcomes in aged care.
Grow with intention — We invest in our people through dedicated learning budgets, performance bonuses, and genuine wellbeing support — because great work starts with great people.
A culture worth showing up for — We’re a small, high-trust team that values different perspectives, moves fast, and communicates openly. There’s no politics here, just good people doing meaningful work.
Rare access, real impact — We operate at the intersection of health data, government, and enterprise. The market access and relationships we’ve built are genuinely hard to find at this stage of a company.
About the Role
We’re looking for a mid-level Software Engineer to join our small, high-ownership technical team. You’ll work across the full stack from building and maintaining modern web applications to integrating with third-party and government APIs contributing to a product that has real-world impact in the healthcare sector.
This is a role for someone who takes pride in clean, well-thought-out code, communicates well in a distributed team, and is comfortable navigating ambiguity. You won’t just be handed tickets, you’ll help shape how features are designed and delivered.
A Day in the Life
Your work will span feature development, API integrations, code reviews, and infrastructure tasks. One day you might be building a new backend service and writing the tests for it; the next, you’re investigating a deployment issue or contributing to a discussion about system design. You’ll participate in regular Agile ceremonies and collaborate closely with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
