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. The Design Systems team creates the visual and interaction foundations that help Vanta deliver coherent, accessible, and high-quality experiences across the product. This team partners across the EPD organization to build the systems, patterns, and practices that enable product teams to move faster while maintaining a high bar for craft and usability. As a Staff Visual Product Designer focused on Design Systems at Vanta, you will shape the visual language of our product and the systems that bring it to life.

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 Staff Software Engineer on the Automation - Foundations team, you will lead the re-platforming of the data layer underneath Vanta’s entire compliance product. This is a migration that spans multiple teams, has to preserve every public API contract along the way, and cannot lose a single customer’s evidence while it happens. Foundations is Vanta’s data platform team. We ingest security and compliance data from across our customer’s environments, currently tens of thousands of resources per second, with single-customer bursts running into the millions. We store the data, catalog it, make it queryable, and turn it into evidence that has to survive a real SOC 2 or FedRAMP audit. We are in the middle of moving our platform from a Mongo-centric architecture to a schema-aware, Postgres-backed architecture, on a Kafka and S3 pipeline that decouples data fetching from processing. Both pipelines run in parallel today, the hard problems here are correctness under migration, eventual consistency, and multi-tenancy, in a domain where “mostly right” is not an acceptable failure mode. Visit our Vanta Engineering Blog to learn more about what our team is working on. What you'll do as a Staff Software Engineer at Vanta: Lead the migration of Vanta’s resource data model from a Mongo-centric solution to a schema-aware Postgres-backed solution and running both generations in parallel without breaking a customer integration.

Vanta has a kind and talented team, and while some have prior security experience, many have been successful at Vanta without it. As a Staff Product Manager, AI Foundations at Vanta, you will build the core AI capabilities that power Vanta’s AI product experiences: the agent harness our agents are built on, and the quality and evaluation stack that makes them trustworthy. The AI pillar is making Vanta the intelligence layer for security and compliance work, wherever that work starts. We build the AI products and foundations that work across Vanta: a cohesive first-party Vanta Agent experience, headless surfaces like MCP and CLI that bring Vanta into tools like Claude Code and Codex, and the shared capabilities that let every team ship high-trust AI products. This role sits behind Vanta’s customer-facing AI experiences. Today, every team shipping AI features has to answer the same hard questions on their own: how to define quality, how to evaluate it, and how to know a change is safe to ship. You will turn those answers into shared foundations, so the AI experiences our customers rely on get better and more trustworthy over time. What you’ll do as a Staff Product Manager, AI Foundations at Vanta: Own the strategy and roadmap for Vanta’s core AI capabilities: the agent harness and the AI quality and evaluation stack Live in agent traces to build intuition for how customers actually use our AI products, and turn that into the highest-leverage improvements Make Vanta’s AI products win on quality: build golden datasets, automated evaluators aligned to expert judgment, and self-serve tooling so PMs, subject-matter experts, and designers can run evals without an engineer in the loop Scale the agent harness: shape the core capabilities Vanta’s agents are built on

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 Design Systems team is the foundational layer that powers visual consistency, design quality, and engineering velocity across all of Vanta's product surfaces. We build and maintain Vanta's shared component library (Alpaca), design tokens, interaction patterns, and documentation, enabling product designers and engineers to ship high-quality, cohesive experiences at scale. As Vanta grows across GRC, Trust, and new product areas, and as AI and agentic experiences become a first-class part of the product, Design Systems is increasingly responsible for a harder problem than static component consistency: building a system that can flex for AI-driven, runtime-composed UI and agent chat and canvas experiences, without losing the craft and coherence that makes Alpaca trustworthy across the org. This role sits at that intersection. You'll help define how a design system stays foundational when the product itself is becoming more dynamic and model-aware. What you’ll do as a Staff Product Designer at Vanta: Lead the strategy, evolution, and execution of Alpaca, ensuring it scales with the needs of a rapidly growing, increasingly AI-driven product organization Extend the design system to support AI and agent product patterns, including agent chat and canvas experiences and components that need to adapt based on runtime or model context Partner with product designers and engineers across every product team to define, document, and ship new components, patterns, and guidelines Establish and evolve governance models, contribution frameworks, and quality standards that let every designer at Vanta build consistently, including for AI-nat
