If you like providing efficient, effective solutions to complex challenges, join us at Ascent! Be at the heart of helping achieve extraordinary things with software and data for our customers!  


About Us

Ascent is a design-led software, data and cloud business that specialises in advanced analytics and AI.  We are an engineering business. We design, build and manage cloud-native products, solutions, platforms & experiences on Azure.

Our pan-European community of engineers, architects, data scientists and digital consultants helps customers take on challenges and opportunities, so they can do something new, or do existing things better.
From global insurance, pharma, healthcare and retail to smart home devices, space exploration and cricket - we get to work with some of the sharpest minds in the brightest businesses.  

We’re looking for people with Software Engineering skills, and you’ll ideally bring experience with the following with you:

• Design & implement solutions based on Azure PaaS services, like Function Apps, App Services, Key Vault 
• Azure infrastructures, including advanced networking scenarios like VNets, Firewalls 
• Familiarity with or interested in becoming an expert in container technologies and Azure Kubernetes Services 
• Designing security aspects of Azure services, like authentication & authorization scenarios, managed identities, etc.  
• Strong communication and presentation skills

  • Test-driven development

We work in Agile methodologies as a preference, so being comfortable working in this way is important. You should be comfortable in a customer-facing situation where you’ll need to communicate clearly and effectively in German and English – often with people who might not be as technically experienced, so good written and verbal language skills are important. You should be someone who is passionate about team collaboration and knowledge sharing, with the passion and drive to achieve goals and targets. We value empathy in our colleagues, and it’s important you bring a growth mindset and a willingness to learn and adapt.
