  • Force plate & biomechanics
  • Regen Pod recovery tech
  • MRI scanning workflows
  • AI systems & prompt engineering
  • Cryotherapy & EMS systems
VR-assisted balance assessment on a digital platform with a clinician
Performance + Regeneration

From bench-side to bed-side.

A structured development pathway with regular reviews and progressive responsibility through the year.

What You’ll Do

A mixed role, structured support.
