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.
