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

We’re looking for a Senior UI Developer with deep expertise in Angular and front-end architecture to help shape the design system and reusable component library that powers the Assent platform. You’ll collaborate closely with product designers and engineers across teams to deliver scalable, accessible, and well-tested UI components.

You’ll be working in a high-trust CI/CD environment—every commit goes to production, and there’s no separate QA team. That means your code must be testable, reliable, and production-ready. You'll take full ownership of component quality, using Playwright for end-to-end tests and Storybook for development and documentation.

Our front-end tech stack includes:

• Angular 19 in an Nx monorepo
• Bootstrap integrated with our custom Meridian design system
• Storybook for interactive documentation and dev collaboration
• Playwright for automated end-to-end testing

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

We work with the latest technology and plan to keep doing so. Our team uses tools like GitHub Copilot to help with AI-powered coding, Figma and FigJam for design, and we’re always open to trying new tools that can help us create better experiences for our customers.

This is more than a chance to write great code. It’s your opportunity to build the user interface 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.

We're looking for passionate front-end developers to join our growing team and help build clean, efficient, and scalable user interfaces. At Assent, you'll contribute to creating great user experiences and writing high-quality code, while learning and growing in a collaborative environment.

• Work with product managers and designers to turn business needs into reliable and maintainable front-end code.
• Contribute to the development of new features and enhancements in our web applications.
• Assist in building and maintaining core UI elements such as navigation, theming, and menu systems.
• Support integration of key front-end services, such as authentication, authorization, and feature flagging.
• Write unit and integration tests to ensure the quality of your code in a CI/CD environment.
• Collaborate closely with designers to implement and extend components using our Meridian Design System.
• Focus on accessibility, performance, and responsive design to ensure a great experience for all users.
• Participate in code reviews, learning from peers and contributing to a culture of clean, secure, and maintainable code.
• Follow secure coding practices aligned with Assent’s security standards.

Qualifications

We strongly value your talent, energy and passion. It will also be valuable to Assent if you have the following qualifications

• 1 to 4 years of experience in front-end development, with knowledge of Angular(12+) or ReactJS or VueJS and understanding of C# Or Java or C++
• Proficiency in modern front-end build systems, libraries, and testing practices
• Understanding of RESTful API design, consumption, and integration across frontend services
• A user-centric mindset with an eye for detail and intuitive UX
• Experience contributing to or maintaining a component library or design system
• Ability to think holistically—balancing business needs, technical debt, and architectural vision
• Proficiency in RxJS for reactive programming patterns.
• Experience working with Git monorepos and related tooling (e.g., Nx).
• Proficiency in HTML, CSS/SCSS, and TypeScript.
• Understanding of OOPS concepts using TypeScript.
• Experience working in Agile teams and collaborating across functions
• Curiosity, craftsmanship, and a drive to stay current with front-end innovation
