Senior DevOps Engineer

Company Description

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.

Hybrid Work Model

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, Pune 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.

Job Description

At Assent, we’re solving complex technical challenges with global impact. Our multi-tenant SaaS platform helps the world’s most influential companies gain deep visibility into their supply chains—enabling them to manage risk, ensure compliance, and take real action on issues like forced labor, environmental sustainability, and ethical sourcing.

The Senior DevOps Engineer will work collaboratively with Assent’s Cloud Operations and Engineering teams to design, develop and implement continuous integration and continuous deployment solutions. This person will be responsible for establishing and maintaining development and testing environments and creating and maintaining configurations for all supporting software deployments. The Senior DevOps Engineer will lead the automation and streamlining of our code integration and deployment operations and processes.

You’ll be working in a high-trust CI / CD environment—every commit goes to production. That means your code must be testable, reliable, and production-ready. You'll take full ownership of system quality.

Our tech stack includes :

• Cloud platforms (AWS, Azure)
• Container orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes)
• GitHub
• Terraform for Infrastructure as Code (IaC)
• .NET 8
• OpenTelemetry, Datadog, New Relic, and Kibana for monitoring and observability

We value maintainability, performance, and thoughtful design that improves developer velocity and customer experience alike.

We are on the bleeding edge of technology and intend to stay there! We’re really open to new tooling that can help us make better experiences for our customers.

This is more than a chance to write great code. It’s your opportunity to build and maintain the reliability of a global platform that helps companies lead with purpose—while working with a team that empowers you to deliver with autonomy, confidence, and impact.
