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 Risk pillar builds products that help customers understand and act on exposure across their organizations. Our work spans AI and data governance, privacy, identity and access, workforce security, enterprise risk management, and third-party oversight. These areas come together through Vanta's Trust Graph, which connects people, agents, data, controls, assets, and vendors to turn fragmented signals into clear context, prioritization, and action.
As a Senior Fullstack Engineer, you'll lead product engineering work end to end across the stack, partnering closely with product and design to turn ambiguous customer problems into simple, high-quality experiences. This role offers a unique opportunity to shape a critical and rapidly growing area of Vanta's product. Depending on team priorities, you might build AI-powered workflows that let the Vanta Agent take on operational work, systems that transform connected signals into trustworthy recommendations, or intuitive experiences for complex internal and third-party programs. You'll tackle unique technical challenges and help customers move from manual, disconnected work to continuous, informed decision-making.
Our business has achieved strong product-market fit and has monetized effectively since the day we signed our first customer. As Vanta continues to scale, engineers have meaningful opportunities to accelerate their growth and contribute directly to the company's next stage.
What you'll do as a Senior Fullstack Engineer at Vanta:
Identify, scope, and lead large technical projects, laying the groundwork for core products to evolve and scale into highly performant, reliable, and customizable systems
Own customer-facing product experiences from understanding the user problem and shaping the solution through implementation, launch, measurement, and iteration
Make effective tradeoffs that consider business priorities, user experience, and a sustainable technical foundation
Build reliable, secure systems that connect and interpret data across people, agents, assets, controls, vendors, and other critical business context
Partner with product, design, domain experts, and other engineers to bring AI-powered workflows from exploration to production, with a high bar for quality, explainability, and customer trust
Use AI thoughtfully throughout the development lifecycle to prototype, build, test, and learn faster, while maintaining a high bar for quality, security, and maintainability
Work with talented and kind engineers to make a significant impact on our customer base, enabling them to improve their security and prove it
Lead complex projects with multiple stakeholders and engineers to deliver significant impact to our business
Set direction for critical technical surface areas, enabling us to stay ahead of continued rapid growth
Contribute to building Vanta’s engineering culture as we grow
How to be successful in this role:
Have 7+ years of full stack experience with an emphasis on backend skills
Have played technical leadership roles for teams or complex projects
Have strong communication and collaboration skills
Have experience building user-facing SaaS products, ideally both for startups and enterprise users
Have previous startup experience, or worked in an environment that prioritizes a bias for action
Have experience building 0→1 products as well as solving large scale problems
Have an interest in learning about security, risk, privacy, or AI governance, or prior experience in one or more of these spaces
Experience with TypeScript and Go is a plus. Experience building AI-powered product experiences, evaluating AI quality, or using modern AI development tools is also valuable, but not required.
What you can expect as a Vanta’n:
Industry-competitive salary and equity
100% covered medical, dental, and vision benefits with dependents coverage
16 weeks paid Parental Leave for all new parents
Health & wellness stipend
Remote workspace, internet, and mobile phone stipend

About Vanta
We started in 2018, in the wake of several high-profile data breaches. Online security was only becoming more important, but we knew firsthand how hard it could be for fast-growing companies to invest the time and manpower it takes to build a solid security foundation. 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.
