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 around the world, 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, the Qustodio brand in EMEA, and Qoria LK in Sri Lanka.

Our solutions are used by schools, school districts, and parental communities to protect children from harmful online content, identify students at risk based on their digital behaviours, and help teachers maintain focus and safe learning environments in the digital classroom. Today, 30,000 schools and 7 million parents rely on our solutions to help keep 25 million children safe across 180 countries worldwide.

Here at Smoothwall by Qoria, the Ingress and Integrations team builds the entry point through which every safeguarding signal from schools reaches our platform. They design and operate the high performance pipelines that ingest over 1.3 billion captures every month from millions of devices, transform and route them securely, and leverage AI technologies to denoise the data so that only the highest risk alerts are escalated to the human moderation team. This team sits at the centre of our technology ecosystem, solving complex problems in scalability, reliability, security and event architecture. Their work directly enables schools and safety professionals to protect children by giving them timely and trusted insight when something is wrong. Joining this team means working on systems that have measurable social impact at a scale where technical excellence truly matters.
