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. You will build the layer that makes Vanta's data actually useful: a single interpretive layer that reads across every source of truth and makes them queryable, reasoned-over, and genuinely illuminating — for EPD, for GTM, and for anyone in the org trying to understand what's happening and why. The EPD Systems team is building the infrastructure Vanta's engineering, product, and design organization depends on to understand itself. We're constructing three interlocking layers: sources of truth at the foundation, an operating system that makes delivery legible, and the intelligence layer that reasons across all of it. This role owns the intelligence layer — the one that doesn't exist yet. This is a builder role. You will ship working things yourself — prototypes, internal tools, agent workflows. You will not hand specs to someone else and wait. Communication isn't a separate deliverable; it's how you learn what to build. What you’ll do as a Senior Product Builder at Vanta: Build the intelligence layer: a cross-source interpretive layer that reads across Vanta's sources of truth and makes them queryable and reasoned-over by EPD leadership, GTM, and beyond Define what to build: scope the problem yourself, make explicit tradeoffs about what to defer, and own the sequence of what gets built and when Ship working things yourself: prototypes, internal tools, agent workflows — using AI as part of how you work, not what you report on Understand the organization: go to the teams whose decisions this layer will serve — GTM, G&A, EPD — and come back knowing what they can't answer today Catch and address AI-specific quality problems — rel
