Want to deliver tech with purpose, with people who care?

Join us in our mission to create solutions that help keep children safe online.

Who are we?

Headquartered in Perth, Australia, with offices globally, Qoria is an ASX listed global leader in child digital safety technology and services. We are a purpose-driven business, operating under the ‘Linewize’ brand in North America and Asia Pacific, the ‘Smoothwall’ brand in the UK, and the ‘Qoria’ brand in EMEA and Sri Lanka. Our solutions are utilised by schools, school districts, and parental communities to protect children from seeing harmful content online, identify children at risk based on their digital behaviours and ensure teachers maintain focus and safe learning in the digital classroom. 30.000 schools and 7 million parents depend on our solutions to keep 25 million children safe in 180 countries around the world.

What’s the Opportunity?

This is a fantastic opportunity to be part of one of the first squads in Sri Lanka that will own one of the critical pieces of our product stack. You will work on existing services but also contribute in building greenfield products. While the squad will operate autonomously, it will be a key part of the existing Early Detection and Intervention tribe.  You can draw on the whole tribe for support and provide assistance in return when your colleagues need it. As part of the Engineering Technical Leaders group you’ll collaborate with other Tech Leads and Architects to help make key decisions on technical direction and future architecture. This role is a chance to strengthen your existing skills while learning new ones, with exposure to cutting-edge technologies such as ML and NLP.

Here's how you'll do it:

• Give technical leadership to the squad to deliver reliable, fit-for-purpose software.
• Act as the technical authority in Go for the team.
• Ensure predictable delivery and high standards.
• Bridge collaboration between UK and Sri Lanka teams.

Responsibilities: 

• Build and maintain components from design to production.
• Help drive squad priorities and progress; escalate blockers.
• Enforce code quality, scalability, and observability.
• Make day-to-day technical decisions and trade-offs.
• Ensure accurate estimates and on-spec delivery.
• Assist with agile ceremonies including standup, Refinement, Sprint planning, Retrospectives and Demos.

What Does Good Look Like?

• Work closely with the squad Architect to set direction and plan delivery.
• Be part of an engaged team who own delivery at the right level of responsibility.
• Maintain product stability with high time-on-task.
• Take collective responsibility for what the team ships.
• Stay current with best practices and master core tools.
• Share knowledge by learning from and teaching others.
• Advocate for the right approach, not just the easy or familiar one.
• Encourage a respectful culture/work environment/ethos where everyone in the team is encouraged to bring ideas.

• Commercial experience with GCP.

Nice to have:
