Overview

Founded in Melbourne, Australia in 2012, HotDoc is Australia’s largest patient engagement platform with over 8 million app downloads in Australia.

The past 18 months have seen massive growth for our business, our team, and our community. We now work with over 21,000 practitioners around Australia, including GPs, Allied Health, Dental Practices, Specialists, and Optometrists.

We’ve helped over 11 million Australians book healthcare appointments (and counting).

We have ambitious goals to improve the healthcare experience for everyone in Australia with exceptional patient journeys, whilst ensuring a high level of privacy, security and reliability and we’re looking for extraordinary individuals to help us get there.

Unique value of the role

The purpose of this role is to help own the availability, scalability and security for one of Australia’s most loved health brands.
