At Vanta, our mission is to help businesses earn and prove trust. We believe that security should be monitored and verified continuously, and we empower companies to practice better security and prove it with ease. Vanta has a kind and talented team, and while some have prior security experience, many have been successful at Vanta without it. As a Solutions Engineer, you'll serve as a trusted technical voice, guiding customers toward clarity, feasibility, and alignment on the end-to-end solution.

Your attention to detail, focused on customer needs, will ultimately improve retention and overall success. This role will be based from our London office or Dublin office with an office-centric hybrid schedule. The standard in-office days are Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. GRC practitioners are especially encouraged to apply—whether you've managed GRC programmes in-house, audited them as an internal or external auditor, or helped customers meet their GRC programme needs at a GRC vendor, you'll bring exactly the customer empathy and domain fluency this role thrives on.
