Company Description

Summary

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've grown from $5 million to $85 million ARR in just six years. With our recent $350 million funding led by Vista Equity Partners, we're poised for even greater expansion and are on the lookout for outstanding team members.

Being a Certified B Corporation, we don't just advocate for sustainability - we live it. This certification underscores our commitment to environmental, social, and governance excellence. At Assent, your work will directly amplify transparency, sustainability, and fair practices worldwide.

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, and Amsterdam, you can expect to come into the office one day a week. Similarly, those near our co-working spaces in Nairobi and Toronto are encouraged to work onsite once a month.

  • Guide the design, development, and deployment of sophisticated AI/ML models and solutions, with a focus on optimizing for supply chain sustainability risk management.
  • Stay abreast of advancements in AI/ML and data science, advocating for the adoption of innovative technologies that can advance our sustainability initiatives.
  • Lead and nurture a team of AI/ML professionals, fostering an environment of growth, innovation, collaboration, and excellence in delivering impactful AI/ML projects.
  • Collaborate on data governance and ethical AI/ML standards, ensuring our AI/ML practices enhance our supply chain sustainability efforts responsibly and transparently.
Qualifications
  • Advanced degree preferred in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, or related fields. Recent experience emphasizing AI/ML applications is preferred.
  • Minimum 10 years of experience in leading data and AI/ML strategy, with a proven portfolio of successful implementations in SaaS products, preferably within sustainability or supply chain domains.
  • Demonstrated leadership in managing technology teams, with a track record of mentoring and driving teams towards achieving strategic objectives.
  • Strong collaborative and influencing skills, capable of driving cross-functional initiatives and fostering partnerships to support AI/ML projects.
  • Exceptional problem-solving, analytical, and critical thinking abilities, coupled with the capacity to articulate complex technical ideas to non-technical stakeholders.
