Ottawa, Ontario, Canada Assent Compliance Full time
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.

  • Assist in the development and execution of long-term network architecture and operation strategies.
  • Determine network bandwidth needs and recommend measures to meet those requirements.
  • Secure network systems by establishing and enforcing policies and defining and monitoring access.
  • Implement monitoring for network interconnectivity and remote networks.
  • Develop solutions that are reusable and can be broadly applied to common network problems.
  • Maintain effective relationships within the company.
  • Collaborate closely with IT, Security, and Infrastructure teams.
  • Document and enforce network system standards.
  • Evaluate changes to the corporate environment for networks' impact and present findings to management.
  • Be familiar with corporate security policies and follow the guidance set out by processes and procedures of Assent.

This is not an exhaustive list of duties. Responsibilities may be altered and/or added from time to time to meet business needs.

Qualifications

We strongly value your talent and passion, but it would also be nice if you had the following experience and qualifications under your belt:

  • Experienced with the configuration and administration of AWS services, preferably within a large-scale, global environment, including AWS Network Firewall, Guard Duty, WAF, Transit Gateway, Site-to-site VPN, and STNO.
  • Experience with CICD pipelines and technologies like Jenkins, Terraform, and GIT considered advantageous.
  • A relevant Bachelor's degree, diploma, or equivalent, and relevant professional certifications (e.g., AWS Certified Solutions Architect, CompTIA Network+) are desirable.
  • Strong communication skills in English, both oral and written, with the ability to effectively interact with diverse stakeholders, including senior management.
  • Please also be sure to mention any ZScaler ZPA/ZIA configuration and administration experience.
