About Build With Assembly

We're an organization driven to give people time back in their day. We do this by solving challenges people experience in their lives that can be made easier with technology. We're Assembly, we help visionary leaders build platforms customers rely on and businesses thrive on.

We partner with our clients to help them adopt the cloud and build the technology assets needed to transform their business, whether that be new custom software development, cloud migrations, or application modernization of existing, legacy systems.  

We’re a high-performing entrepreneurial team with nearly two decades of experience helping enterprise organizations, including Honda, Acura, Brookfield, Canon, and many more continuously evolve their tech to meet their business goals.

We are a fully remote company that takes pride in having an unmatchable team of practitioners, in 5 countries across 4 continents, that have helped us rise to the ranks of being on the Profit 500, Canada’s Fastest Growing Companies, Best Workplaces in Technology, and Best Workplaces in Canada (Top 50).

  • Participate in career development and performance reviews
  • Commit to ongoing learning and development; participate in conferences and educational programs
  • Stay up to date with current best practices
  • Follow new and emerging technologies
