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 new Enterprise Platform team is being formed to support the next era of growth by powering services that are reliable, scalable, and resilient by design. As our customer base expands and our systems scale, we need a dedicated group focused on partnering closely with product engineering teams to build and operate robust distributed systems across all of Vanta’s environments, including our new FedRAMP deployment. In this role, you’ll help define the foundations of reliability at Vanta including shaping best practices, building core infrastructure, and guiding teams as they design services that perform consistently for customers. This team will have a broad and deep impact across product engineering. Your work will influence how every Vanta engineer builds, deploys, monitors, and maintains their services, whether for our commercial environment or regulated customers with more stringent requirements. You’ll develop tools and frameworks that make it easier to detect and remediate issues, improve operational readiness, and support feature development that meets the needs of increasingly large and complex enterprise customers. Vanta engineers design and develop new product functionality and infrastructure using modern frameworks and tooling, including TypeScript, React, Node.js, MongoDB, GitHub Actions, and AWS services such as Fargate and ECS. If you're excited to help define a new function, raise the reliability bar across an entire engineering organization, and build systems that scale with Vanta’s growth, we’d love to meet you.

Vanta was inspired by a vision to restore trust in internet businesses by enabling companies to improve and prove their security. From our early days automating security monitoring for compliance standards like SOC 2, HIPAA and ISO 27001 to creating the world's leading Trust Management Platform, our vision remains unchanged. Now more than ever, making security continuous—not just a point-in-time check— is essential. Thousands of companies rely on Vanta to build, maintain and demonstrate their trust— all in a way that's real-time and transparent.
