As a Software Engineer at Vanta, you’ll ship products quickly, learn from our customers, and iterate to address our customers’ needs.
Vanta’s mission is to secure the internet and protect consumer data. We believe that security should be monitored and verified continuously, and we empower companies to practice better security and prove it with ease. Our product integrates deeply with the services that present security risk to a company, pulls and analyzes data from those sources, and surfaces potential security threats to our customers in real time with guidance to remediate them.
At Vanta, we strive to make practicing better security not only easier but delightful for our customers. Guiding them through their security journey, from identifying to remediating potential threats, is a unique product engineering challenge. Our customers are often engineers themselves, so engineers at Vanta have an important voice and influence on our product direction.
Our business has found incredible product-market fit and has monetized effectively since the day we signed our first customer. We’re growing at a blistering pace, which presents career-defining opportunities for engineers to accelerate their growth and to contribute to a rapidly-scaling company.
Vanta has a kind and talented team, and while some have prior security experience, many have been successful at Vanta without it. We’d love for you to join us!
What you’ll do as a Software Engineer, Product at Vanta:
- Deeply understand our customers and our market to build solutions addressing key pain points and opportunities for competitive advantage.
- Work closely with crossfunctional partners to discover, build, and iterate on scalable products that solve our customers’ needs.
- Design, develop, and own new product functionality and/or infrastructure leveraging modern frameworks and tooling (TypeScript, React, Node.js, Golang). Prior experience with these technologies is not necessary!
- Work with talented and kind engineers to make a significant impact on our customer base, enabling them to improve their security and prove it.
- Contribute to building Vanta’s engineering culture as we grow.
How to be successful in this role:
- Have an interest in learning about security or prior experience in the space.
- Have at least 2 years of professional experience as a software engineer — we’re hiring at all levels of experience!

About Vanta
We started Vanta in 2016 as Equifax had lost every American's social security number, Home Depot had leaked its customers' credit card numbers to hackers, and Facebook admitted that it irresponsibly sent user data to third parties who tried to influence the US election. It was clear that security and privacy had become mainstream issues, and that we all increasingly relied on cloud services to store everything from our personal photos to our communications at work.
Vanta's mission is to be the layer of trust on top of these services, and to secure the internet, increase trust in software companies, and keep consumer data safe.
We do this by building an automated head of security for technology companies, and we use that system to both help a company secure itself and to prove their security to others.
If we succeed in our mission, it should feel irresponsible for users to put data into a product that isn't certified by Vanta, and irresponsible for companies to collect data without using Vanta to secure and monitor themselves.
