    HealthEngine

    HealthEngine is an established startup, changing the face of health access across Australia. As Australia's leading health appointment marketplace, we help millions of Australians find and book health appointments, 24/7. We combine two of Australia's fastest growing industries, Health and Technology. The new product team based in Sydney is a start-up within a start-up. We’re here to find the new products and market fit. A little bit of R&D mixed with fresh ideas and the freedom to build what needs to be built, turns out to be a whole lot of fun.

    We're a bunch of creatives, techies, business nuts and entrepreneurs. We question, innovate, collaborate and love change. We're growing fast and we'd love you to come along for the ride!

    Our Story

    HealthEngine is Australia’s dominant healthcare appointment booking platform, and now we are building the future of Australian healthcare. Each month we touch over 1.5m Australian lives, and want your help to bring user-centric healthcare to mainstream reality. HealthEngine is one of few Australian companies that thinks with a global mindset and has the resources to dominate an entire market sector. Pound for pound, HealthEngine is as dominant as any global healthcare booking platform.

    With over 100 staff in the Perth office, our Sydney office will start as a discrete team of 15 people, working on the next stage of HealthEngine’s capability. Without giving to much away, you’ll be part of probably the most resourced, forward thinking, and customer focussed digital healthcare team in the country. Come and build stuff that millions of eyeballs will see the very next month.

    People

    We’re looking for key team members to join our development team in Sydney. People who a bit of an all rounder with experience building applications and products. We’re looking for hacker, someone who enjoys the craft of designing and building software, seeks autonomy and wants to work with and learn from a world class team of multi-discipline software engineers.

    You’ll be surrounded by globally competitive intellects, who are low on hierarchy, politics and procedures. We are high on output, elegant solutions, freedom, ownership and accountability. You’ll enjoy flexible holidays, flexible working hours, generous learning budgets, a modern CBD office, a free breakfast bar, and walking distance to a train station.

    In return, we are looking for the highest calibre of talent, with a relentless drive for technical, product and user experience excellence. We’re agile, practice radical candour, and we care about our customers, patients and each other. You’ll solve security, consumer, product and technology challenges at a global standard. Get on board, “I was employee number x at HealthEngine” is going to matter.
