## Job description

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.

We believe that security should be monitored and verified continuously, including the security of your supply chain. The Vendor Risk Management (VRM) product was designed to provide software buyers with tools to evaluate the security of their vendors by inventorying vendors, prioritising risks, automating security reviews and remediating findings. VRM or Third-Party Risk Management (TPRM) presents a massive opportunity for Vanta - representing a market of $5-$10B in ARR and a CAGR of 10.8% driven by secular tailwinds in the industry that requires more focused and deeper scrutiny of the company’s supply chain.

As a Senior Software Engineer with a full-stack focus, you’ll be responsible for driving complex projects across our technical stack and mentor our talented engineering team. Your past experience will be leveraged to accelerate the evolution of our Vendor Risk Management product and help software buyers continuously and comprehensively monitor risks across their vendor supply chain.

Our business has found incredible product-market fit and has monetized effectively since the day we signed our first customer. We’re growing at a blistering pace, which presents career-defining opportunities for engineers to accelerate their growth and to contribute to a rapidly scaling company.

Vanta has a kind and talented team, and while some have prior security experience, many have been successful at Vanta without it. We’d love for you to join us!

## 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.
