Loop Earplugs is reinventing how people experience the world by enabling them to live life at their own volume. 2024 was a pivotal year at Loop – we hit 14,000,000 earplugs sold, were named ‘The Best Earplugs for Concerts’ by The New York Times, and expanded our product offering to a complete range of solutions for day and night. Oh – and not to mention making history as the first company to win Deloitte’s Fast 50 Belgium twice.
But this is just the beginning. As we continue to develop disruptive products, we’re constantly on the lookout for the next big idea - and building a team who can make it happen.
Being a Looper means making a difference. Whatever your role, this is your stage to make a real impact and bring your ideas to life. Better yet, you’ll join a fast-growing, global team of 250+ people who are passionate, down-to-earth and eager to tackle challenges together.
We’re looking for a highly technical consultant to lead the migration of complex, business-critical spreadsheets from Excel to Google Sheets.
This is not a lift-and-shift exercise.
Many of our spreadsheets contain advanced formulas, macros, and large-scale data models. Some should be migrated, some rebuilt, and some left untouched. Your role is to figure out which is which—and execute accordingly.
If your experience is limited to Google Workspace admin, file transfers, or basic Sheets usage, this role is not a fit.
Audit a wide range of Excel files (including macro-heavy and large-scale models)
Classify spreadsheet complexity (Low / Medium / High)
Identify structural, performance, and scalability issues
Determine migration feasibility:
Convert
Rebuild
Keep in Excel
Define a clear migration approach across the organization
Estimate effort and risk per spreadsheet
Recommend alternative solutions where Sheets is not the right tool
Design scalable spreadsheet architectures in Google Sheets
Convert 3–10 representative spreadsheets
Replace VBA/macros with Apps Script where viable
Rebuild models when direct conversion is not feasible
Validate performance and usability post-migration
Optimize spreadsheets for performance (large datasets, calculation efficiency)
Integrate external data sources (APIs, databases, etc.)
Establish best practices for future spreadsheet development
Advanced Excel engineering:
Complex formulas, pivot tables, Solver
VBA/macros (you’ve written and debugged them, not just used them)
Large-scale spreadsheet modeling
Performance optimization
Advanced Google Sheets:
Array formulas, QUERY, advanced logic
Google Apps Script (macro replacement)
Deep understanding of Sheets limitations and workarounds
Spreadsheet architecture & data workflows:
Structuring models for scalability and maintainability
Understanding when spreadsheets break—and why
Proven experience migrating complex Excel spreadsheets to Google Sheets
Hands-on experience converting VBA → Apps Script
Experience analyzing spreadsheet performance and redesigning structure
Strong plus:
Experience working with engineering or hardware teams
Background in data analysis or financial modeling
Experience with Python, SQL, BigQuery, or API-based data pipelines
You should be comfortable working with:
Excel
VBA / macros
Pivot tables
Power Query
Solver
Complex nested formulas
Large datasets (>50k rows)
Google Sheets
Apps Script
Array formulas
QUERY function
Performance optimization
External integrations
Automation / Data
REST APIs
Python (nice to have)
Data pipelines (nice to have)
By the end of the engagement, you will have delivered:
Spreadsheet inventory
Full overview of analyzed files
Complexity classification
Clear segmentation (Low / Medium / High)
Migration feasibility mapping
Convert vs Rebuild vs Keep
Effort estimates
Time and complexity per file
Migration roadmap
Clear, executable plan across all spreadsheets
Analyze sample spreadsheets
Classify complexity
Evaluate feasibility
Convert selected spreadsheets
Rebuild where needed
Test performance and usability
Define what gets migrated, rebuilt, or retained
Provide scalable recommendations
Your experience is limited to Google Workspace admin or IT migrations
You’ve never worked with VBA or complex spreadsheet models
You’ve only used spreadsheets, not engineered them
Spreadsheets are critical to how we operate. Poor migration decisions will break workflows, slow teams down, and create long-term technical debt.
We’re looking for someone who can think like an engineer, not just execute like a technician.
