Engineering partner for regulated financial businesses.

IO Corp Pty Ltd is a Sydney-based engineering studio. We deliver regulated software to Australian banks, lenders, brokerages and exchanges through fixed-scope contracts. Selective on engagements, senior on every one of them.

Services

What we do

Three services for regulated financial businesses. We focus on a small set of engagements rather than carrying a broad agency menu.

01

Platform delivery

Regulated platforms designed, built and put into production. Brokers, lenders, exchanges, banking integrations. Used in operation at Australian financial institutions.

02

Compliance & security

Security and compliance architecture for regulated workloads. Custody models, key management, RBAC, audit trails. Our work has cleared external penetration testing on live systems holding user funds.

03

Engineering leadership

Senior engineering placed inside client teams under contract. Principal-level technical leadership on regulated builds, with a clean handover at the end of the engagement.
