We are Ascenti. The leading provider of physiotherapy and mental health services- helping thousands of people to elevate their health and live active lives every day.

With more than 25 years’ experience serving both the public and private sectors, we are industry leading experts and passionate believers in our distinct clinical philosophy, because we know how it works and see first-hand how it helps people every day.

Your purpose

Ascenti Digital is made up of technology and product development teams that provide digital services to the Ascenti Group. We spend our time building new digital experiences for our colleagues, business partners, and patients.

As a Staff Engineer, you will play a pivotal role in shaping the technical direction of our healthcare technology platforms, with a focus on building scalable, maintainable, and secure .NET solutions. You will be the go-to technical authority for our .NET and React codebases, taking full ownership of our new patient management platform and its supporting services.

This is a hands-on leadership role: you will design and implement features, guide architecture decisions, mentor engineers, and collaborate closely with stakeholders to align technology decisions with business goals.

How your role fits within our team

Reporting to the Software Engineering Manager and working closely with the Chief Technology Officer, you will take point on the development of apps, components, and services that contribute to the rapid development of a new specialist MSK Physio platform.

You will mentor other Software Engineers and lead by example to improve code quality and produce better delivery outcomes for our software.

Key responsibilities

• Act as the technical owner for key products and services, setting and maintaining architectural direction.
• Lead the design, implementation, and delivery of major features, improvements, and fixes across the platform.
• Make pragmatic decisions that balance short-term delivery needs with long-term scalability and maintainability.
• Write high-quality, maintainable code in C#, .NET, and TypeScript/React.
• Implement functional and user-friendly interfaces aligned with our UX and brand standards.
• Contribute to CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure automation, and monitoring solutions.
• Mentor and coach other engineers, helping them grow technically and professionally.
• Promote best practices in code quality, testing, and modern engineering approaches (clean architecture, DevOps).
• Champion a collaborative engineering culture across squads and business functions.
• Work with Product Owners and business stakeholders to translate roadmap initiatives into technical solutions.
• Advocate for secure-development practices.
• Partner with cross-functional teams on wider technology initiatives, ensuring consistency and integration across systems.

Professional standards

We care about doing the right thing by our people and everyone that we work with. We also expect our people to do the right thing and to model the behaviours outlined in our Code of Conduct.

As an Ascenti employee you will follow key principles and policies covering Safeguarding, Equality, Diversity and Inclusion, Data Protection, and Risk Management.

At Ascenti, we help thousands of people every day to elevate their health and live active lives. With over 25 years of experience in the public and private sectors, we’re proud to foster a progressive, values-led workplace where our people thrive.

About the role

We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer (.NET) to join our Ascenti Digital team on a full-time, 12-month fixed-term contract. This is a critical role that supports the delivery of scalable software solutions across our digital infrastructure, helping us improve outcomes for patients, clinicians, and partners.

You’ll take technical ownership of core platforms, developing and maintaining components built in ASP.NET, C#, and React. You’ll work closely with other engineers and stakeholders to iterate on existing features and build new applications aligned to our roadmap. You’ll also mentor junior engineers and help shape our coding standards and development practices.

This role is ideal for someone who brings strong full-stack engineering experience, a collaborative mindset, and a desire to make meaningful contributions to health tech innovation.

What you’ll be doing

As a Senior Software Engineer (.NET), you’ll:

• Lead the design, implementation, and delivery of new software features and product fixes.
• Take ownership of system components, making decisions about future improvements.
• Develop and maintain code using .NET/ASP.NET, C#, SQL, and JavaScript/TypeScript.
• Collaborate with stakeholders and teams across the business to align development with strategic goals.
• Contribute to product innovation and iteration, supporting the overall digital strategy.
• Mentor junior software engineers and promote a culture of quality and shared learning.
• Provide input into agile processes and promote data-driven development approaches.
• Contribute to projects that enhance user experience (UX) and business outcomes.
• Support broader digital transformation initiatives across the organisation.
