I have to use the word 'project' multiple times on my dashboard screen and the 'j' looks bolder than the rest and looks quite off. I was using Assistant font which looked quite professional. Any alternate font that I can use?

I'm having trouble duplicating the problem with the Assistant typeface. The lowercase "j" looks normal to me, using both static and variable versions downloaded from the Google Fonts web site. However, I'm using graphics applications like Adobe Illustrator to preview the type family. The on-screen rendering there may differ from the dashboard application you're using. Are you using a static or variable version of Assistant?

 

As to alternatives, the typeface looks a little like News Gothic with a slight Officina Sans twist to it. Proxima Nova might be a good alternative.

 

I'm a little surprised Assistant isn't available at Adobe Fonts since a type designer at Adobe (Ben Nathan) created it.
