Design Director Jobs

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. This is not a back-office compliance role and it is not a generic sales-engineering role. You will operate as a named member of deal teams under our pod model: paired with Strategic and Enterprise Account Executives, embedded in their weekly cadences, engaged from first discovery through POC, onsite, close, and expansion. You will be the practitioner in the room that a buyer's CISO or GRC lead trusts — and the internal expert our AEs, SEs, and marketing team build around. What you’ll do as a Subject Matter Expert, GTM at Vanta: Serve as the dedicated GRC SME for a book of Strategic/Enterprise Account Executives: join discovery and qualification calls at the earliest deal stages, scope compliance programs against Vanta's platform, and support demos, POCs, workshops, and customer onsites across Compliance, Third-Party Risk Management, Risk Management, and Trust/Questionnaire Automation. Advise prospects on program architecture: multi-framework strategy, shared controls, business-unit and workspace scoping, custom frameworks, and audit sequencing. Answer field questions through our SME channels at customer-forwardable quality — including reviewing and validating AI-agent-generated answers before they reach customers. Our team runs AI-first: you'll use agents daily, act as the quality gate on their output, and (ideally) build tooling of your own. Design and deliver enablement: live sessions for GTM teams, bootcamp scenarios and mock-customer roleplay, async curriculum modules, and review of GRC marketing and SEO content. Own monthly alignment cadences with sales front-line managers; feed structured product feedback to our Product a

About the Team Security is foundational to OpenAI’s mission to ensure that artificial general intelligence benefits all of humanity. The Security organization protects OpenAI’s technology, people, and products by building and operating deeply technical systems that must work reliably at massive scale. Our work underpins OpenAI’s commitments around safety, privacy, and security across research, products, and emerging platforms. The Host Assurance team exists to make bare metal and VMs dependable & scalable foundations for OpenAI: secure by default, verifiable in practice, and resilient across providers and operating models. We operate at the trust boundary between hardware and cloud-scale orchestration, ensuring that hosts are eligible to safely run workloads with predictable security properties and auditability. About the Role OpenAI is seeking a Software Engineer, Host Assurance to build and operate the services, APIs, and host software that establish and maintain trust in our compute infrastructure. You will own production software from design and implementation through testing, rollout, observability, and operation. Your work will support capabilities such as machine identity, certificate issuance and enrollment, secure bootstrap, and host attestation across bare-metal and VM environments. Success in this role requires strong technical judgment, the ability to reason across software and host-system boundaries and learn unfamiliar parts of the stack, and a practical mindset for building systems that are secure, reliable, and usable in fast-moving production environments. The systems you build will sit on the critical path of OpenAI’s frontier infrastructure investments and will directly shape how large amounts of compute are brought online - securely, responsibly, and at global scale - underpinning long-lived commitments around privacy, security, and reliability. You will partner closely with infrastructure, research, and confidential computing initiatives—inc

About the Role The Infrastructure team builds and operates the foundational systems behind Perplexity’s products. At Perplexity, infrastructure sits on the critical path of every answer, supporting real-time search, retrieval, model serving, and agent workloads where latency, reliability, and rapid iteration directly shape the user experience. This role is for strong infrastructure engineers whose experience spans multiple domains and who are energized by cross-cutting problems that do not fit neatly within a single platform team. You do not need to be a specialist in every area. Scope ranges from owning major production systems to setting technical direction across teams, leading complex infrastructure programs, and shaping infrastructure strategy across the organization. If a specialized Cloud Infrastructure, Storage Platform, Backend Platform, Data Platform, Connector Platform, or AI Acceleration role clearly matches your expertise and interests, apply directly to it. If your experience spans several infrastructure domains or you are most energized by cross-cutting systems problems, apply here. Submit one application, and we will consider you across the Infrastructure organization. Key Responsibilities Own cross-cutting infrastructure problems that span compute, storage, networking, data, deployment, and reliability, including eliminating bottlenecks across retrieval and serving paths, building shared abstractions across deployment environments, and resolving failure modes that cross platform boundaries. Design, build, and operate distributed infrastructure supporting Perplexity’s consumer, AI, and enterprise workloads, owning systems from architecture through production operation. Identify gaps between existing platforms and build shared abstractions, automation, and tooling that make infrastructure easier and safer to use. Improve system performance, availability, scalability, and cost-efficiency across online request traffic and background workloads. Debug com

Who We Are Every organization runs on intelligence: years of accumulated knowledge, decisions, and context. As AI takes on more of that work, companies face a choice: rent that intelligence from vendors who keep the data, the context, and the results, or own it. OpenTeams exists to make ownership possible. Founded by Travis Oliphant, creator of NumPy and SciPy, and built by people with deep roots across the open-source ecosystem, including NumPy, SciPy, PyTorch, and Jupyter, we help enterprises and governments build AI they control, govern, and evolve themselves.

You won’t direct engineering work from the outside. You’ll partner closely with the teams designing and building the solution, helping translate and structure complex information so technical and business stakeholders remain align
