About the job
At Vanta, we are driven by our mission to empower businesses to earn and demonstrate trust. We firmly believe that security should be a continuous journey, not a destination. Our platform enables companies to enhance their security practices effortlessly, ensuring a seamless verification process. Join our diverse and talented team, where many have thrived without prior security experience.
As a Staff Software Engineer, you will spearhead pivotal technical initiatives that deliver substantial value to our customers and organization. In this influential role within our expanding Privacy & Data Security team, based in London, you'll help strengthen our engineering footprint across Europe. Collaborating closely with product management, design, and a growing engineering team, you will drive the discovery and development of privacy features that enhance Vanta's offerings. Your contributions will expedite product development and ensure a consistent experience for all customer segments.
With our rapid growth, it’s crucial to invest in the right abstractions and systems that will enable scalability. As a Staff Software Engineer, you'll identify strategic technical initiatives that resonate across our engineering team, setting a high standard for technical excellence and culture. Your past experiences will be invaluable in propelling Vanta's growth trajectory.
Our company has achieved remarkable product-market fit and has been effectively monetizing since the onboarding of our first customer. The pace of our growth presents unique, career-defining opportunities for engineers looking to fast-track their development while contributing to a rapidly scaling organization.
This role is remote-first, though we anticipate occasional travel to our London office for team collaboration.
We invite you to be a part of our kind and talented team, where your skills can flourish, irrespective of past security experience.
Your Responsibilities as a Staff Software Engineer at Vanta:
Lead, scope, and execute significant technical projects, laying the foundation for scalable, performant, and adaptable systems.
Design, develop, and maintain new product functionalities and infrastructure using modern technologies (TypeScript, React, Node.js).
