Assent is the leading solution for supply chain sustainability tailored for the world’s top-tier, sustainability-driven manufacturers. Hidden risks riddle supply chains, many of which weren't built with sustainability in mind. That's where we step in. With insights from experts, Assent is the tool manufacturers trust for comprehensive sustainability.
We are proud to announce that Assent has crossed the US$100M ARR milestone, granting us Centaur Status. This accomplishment, reached just 8 years following our Series A, makes us the first and only Certified B Corporation in North America's SaaS sustainability industry to celebrate this milestone.
Our journey from $5 million to US$100M ARR in just eight years has been marked by significant growth and achievements. With our $350 million US funding led by Vista Equity Partners, we're poised for even greater expansion and are on the lookout for outstanding team members to join our mission.
At Assent, we proudly embrace a remote-first work model, valuing the flexibility and autonomy it provides our team. We also acknowledge the intangible benefits of occasional in-person workdays. For team members situated within 50 kms/31 miles of our five global offices in Ottawa, Eldoret, Penang, Columbus, and Amsterdam, you can expect to come into the office at least one day a week. Similarly, those near our co-working spaces in Nairobi and Toronto are encouraged to work onsite once a month.
As a Senior Data Engineer at Assent, you will play a critical role in advancing our data engineering practices and serving as a hands‑on technical expert. You will contribute significantly to the vision and execution of our data engineering efforts, ensuring the development of secure, robust, scalable, and high-performing data platforms. Your role will involve driving key technical initiatives, collaborating on architectural decisions, and executing complex data engineering tasks to align our data infrastructure with Assent's business goals.
You will actively participate in the design, development, and implementation of sophisticated data solutions while offering mentorship and technical guidance to other engineers. Your contributions will have a broad impact across the organization as you champion best practices, innovate to enhance our data engineering capabilities, and work directly on the technical solutions required to advance our data systems.
