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.

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 Team Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) is foundational to Security delivering mission outcomes at OpenAI. The GRC team provides security assurances and builds compliance for OpenAI’s technology, people, and products.

About the Role We are looking for an experienced Product Lifecycle Assurance IC to help scale OpenAI’s GRC function across our product stack to ensure products address customer and regulatory compliance requirements at launch and regressions are detected promptly and corrected. You will partner closely with Product, Security, Legal, and Privacy teams to make sure OpenAI can move quickly while maintaining our security, privacy and compliance claims and giving customers, auditors, and regulators assurance about how OpenAI handles user data. You are responsible for product assurance end-to-end from inception to post-launch (continuous) monitoring. You leverage existing workflows, reviews, and data and enhance, augment and build the components needed to create an end-to-end product assurance program. This role is not about supporting SOC or ISO audits; it's a highly cross-functional and deeply technical operations role to ensure that OAI products meet the compliance bar at launch, regressions are prevented and detected, and our compliance state can be evidenced. This role also helps ensure that our product launch governance program operates effectively across key safety, privacy, legal and security stakeholders and lessons-learned from incidents and regressions are used to improve the program.

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. Vanta's Corporate Engineering team is the infrastructure layer that keeps 1,500+ people connected, secure, and moving fast. AI is now central to how that happens, and this role leads the team that owns the backbone underneath it. Corporate Engineering owns the shared AI platform for Vanta's internal systems: identity and access for AI tools, cost visibility and controls, sanctioned tooling and guardrails, and the enablement that helps people use those tools well. We do not own product AI, which stays with Engineering, and we do not replace the AI work happening inside individual departments. We build the engineering layer that makes all of it safer, cheaper, and better supported. The company has moved fast. AI assistant use is widespread across every function, MCP infrastructure is live and self-serve company-wide, internal apps ship on a hosted platform, and AI spend has grown to the point where attribution and guardrails genuinely matter. What does not exist yet is a single owner for that platform layer. That is this role. As Sr. Manager, AI Engineering, you will lead a small, senior team, write the charter for what Corporate Engineering owns versus enables, and build the platform that lets the rest of Vanta adopt AI quickly without accumulating cost, risk, or duplication. What you’ll do as a Senior Manager, AI Corporate Engineering at Vanta: Lead, coach, and grow a senior team spanning platform engineering and technical program management. Set clear direction, hold a high bar, and give the team explicit permission to push back with data. Own the AI access layer end to end: identity and authentication for AI tools, connector

Vanta has a kind and talented team, and while some have prior security experience, many have been successful at Vanta without it. Vanta's Corporate Engineering team is the infrastructure layer that keeps 1,500+ people connected, secure, and moving fast. This role leads the shift from a reactive support function to a platform function the whole company relies on. Corporate Engineering owns the systems, tooling, and access infrastructure Vanta runs on. From identity and device management to AI tooling infrastructure and ITSM, CE makes sure Vanta's people have the right access, the right tools, and the right guardrails on day one and every day after. CE is at an inflection point. The company has scaled quickly, AI tooling is live company-wide, and the team is ready for a leader who sets technical direction, establishes clear ownership, and builds the leadership layer beneath them. As Sr. Manager, Systems Engineering, you will lead a team of experienced engineers, own several of the company's highest-priority platform initiatives, and make CE a function the rest of Vanta builds on rather than routes around. What you’ll do as a Senior Manager, Systems Engineering at Vanta: Lead, coach, and grow a team of systems engineers and a tech lead. Set clear expectations, hold a high bar, and develop the people who build Vanta's most critical internal systems.

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. Vanta for Government (V4G) is how we bring that mission to the public sector. As federal compliance undergoes its biggest shift in a decade — FedRAMP 20x, machine-readable authorization, OSCAL — we're building the platform that turns federal frameworks into automated, continuously monitored product experiences. The GRC Subject Matter Experts on this team are the people who make that possible. As Vanta's GRC Subject Matter Expert for V4G , you'll own federal compliance content used by every customer pursuing or maintaining federal authorization on our platform. This is an interpretation-and-authoring role, not a compliance program administration role: your job is to interpret underlying control requirements, identify where FedRAMP modifies or constrains the NIST framework, and translate those interpretations into precise, technically testable guidance that engineering can build and customers can act on. The content you write ships as product — a five-person startup and a Fortune 100 CSP both receive it — so calibrating depth, precision, and universality is the core craft. You'll join Vanta's Security organization, which directly influences product development, facilitates the creation of automated GRC solutions for customers, and provides expert advisory services across the company. What you’ll do as a V4G GRC SME at Vanta: Build and own federal compliance frameworks — Lead the creation, enhancement, and lifecycle management of controls, evidence requirements, and implementation guidance for FedRAMP (Low/Moderate/High), NIST SP 800-53, NIST SP 800-171, CMMC, DFARS, and StateRAMP.
