At Vanta, our mission is to secure the internet and protect consumer data. 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 an Engineering Manager, you’ll be responsible for setting strategy, leading your team to deliver results consistently and sustainably, growing and developing talented engineers, and cultivating a healthy, results-driven culture on your team to deliver significant value to our customers and enable our business to scale.

You’ll leverage your past experience and play a crucial role in laying the groundwork for a successful engineering organization, contributing to developing foundational processes that enable our entire team to scale. Our business has an incredible product-market fit and effectively monetized since the day we signed our first customer.

In this role, you’ll be leading Vanta’s Growth Platform team, focusing on driving customer activation, engagement, and retention by building features and tools that make it easy for users to adopt our product, realize value quickly, and build habits using it to achieve their compliance and security goals. You’ll also partner with other product teams to develop systems that drive deeper product adoption and engagement both within the core product and emerging business lines. Finally, you will maintain and evolve the quantitative definition of customer success and leverage product analysis to inform future decisions.

What you’ll do as an Engineering Manager at Vanta:

  • Oversee the development and maintenance of scalable growth systems leveraging modern frameworks and tooling (TypeScript, React), getting hands on when necessary.

  • Drive significant impact for our customers and business by leading your team to deliver results consistently and sustainably.

  • Develop and hire teams of talented and kind engineers.

  • Set direction and guide technical strategy, ensuring that your team is delivering value aligned with Vanta’s business priorities with a sustainable technical foundation.

  • Work closely with Vanta’s customers and customer-facing teammates to build and ship high-value products and growth infrastructure.

  • Play an integral role in laying the foundation for Vanta’s engineering culture.


How to be successful in this role:

  • Have two or more years of professional experience in a full-time engineering management role.

  • Led customer-facing growth teams and/or projects that support product and business growth.

  • Have an understanding of SaaS business growth metrics and quantitative product analysis.

  • Upleveled teams of engineers by mentoring and leading by example.

  • Have experience working at rapidly scaling startups and/or large companies with environments that prioritize a bias for action.

  • Have an interest in learning about security and compliance or prior experience in the space.

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 worlds 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 thats real-time and transparent.
