Are happy to be a test team of one (for now)
Are a natural born troubleshooter when it comes to technology and software
Will advocate for our users and champion the cause for great quality products and services

Perks of working for Perx

Remote-friendly, parent-friendly & support for flexible working arrangements.
Work from home anywhere in Australia or from our co-working space in Sydney CBD if Sydney-based
As an early member of our Product and Engineering team, you will have the opportunity to take the lead on testing and help optimize current processes.
Perx is a small company, so you will work closely with our founders and other important stakeholders like our Sales and Customer Service teams
We work remotely but stay connected on Slack, and have regular Google Meet catch ups including eDrinks and/or eCoffee every 2nd Friday
A small engineering and product team means everyone works closely together and learns from each other
Awesome company-wide retreats every year
Your own professional development budget for education courses, attending conferences and or buying books
But, the real benefit is that at Perx Health, you'll get to do challenging, impactful work with smart and dedicated teammates.
