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 Senior Security Engineer at Vanta, you’ll own projects with impact across the business to help us run an efficient and highly effective security team. The security team at Vanta ensures that we are a trustworthy steward of sensitive data. We also contribute subject matter expertise to the product, sales, marketing, support, and engineering functions, given the nature of our business.
You’ll join Vanta’s Security organization, which provides essential security operational services, is directly involved in the software development process and building tools to make it easy for developers to ship products securely, sets policies and standards regarding enterprise-wide security requirements, and offers advisory services to enable our business to thrive while effectively managing risk. If you’re someone who has high initiative and enjoys problem solving while having impact at a high-growth company, we would love to hear from you!
