## 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.

As a Senior Technical Sourcer at Vanta, you will own the strategy, execution, and success of our sourcing efforts across niche and leadership areas of the Engineering hiring process. You will focus on building a robust talent pipeline for our most critical technical roles in engineering across Senior level searches. You’ll also stretch to support roles across EPD when needed, and will have the autonomy to craft best-in-class sourcing practices, drive outreach strategies, and set the foundation for future team growth.

What you’ll do as a Sr. Technical Sourcer at Vanta:

- Develop and execute a comprehensive sourcing strategy to identify and attract top technical talent, with a focus on our most critical, niche, and senior engineering roles
- Utilize advanced sourcing techniques, including direct outreach, talent mapping, networking, and engagement with professional communities and conferences.
- Build and nurture relationships with passive candidates to maintain a strong talent pipeline.
- Collaborate closely with the recruiting and hiring teams to understand hiring needs, align on priorities, and refine sourcing strategies.
- Leverage data-driven insights to optimize sourcing strategies, improve pipeline performance, and serve as a trusted advisor to hiring managers by providing market intelligence and influencing hiring decisions.
- Champion AI-first recruiting practices by integrating emerging AI tools into sourcing workflows, improving candidate engagement, pipeline quality, and operational efficiency.

How to be successful in this role:

- 6+ years of technical sourcing experience, ideally in a high-growth tech environment.
- Proven track record of building and executing successful sourcing strategies for senior and specialty technical roles.
- Expertise in utilizing an array of sourcing channels and AI sourcing tools.
- Strong research and talent mapping skills with the ability to generate leads for hard-to-fill roles.
- Excellent communication and relationship-building abilities, with a focus on creating a positive candidate experience.
- Self-starter with a high degree of autonomy and an entrepreneurial mindset.
- Demonstrated ability to adapt quickly and thrive in a fast-paced, dynamic startup environment.
- Open to using AI to amplify their skills and strengthen their work - demonstrating curiosity, a willingness to learn, and sound judgment in applying AI responsibly to improve efficiency and impact.
- Must be authorized to work in the U.S. without the need for current or future employer sponsorship.

What you can expect as a Vanta’n:

- Industry-competitive salary and equity
- Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage, with 100% of employee-only benefit premiums covered for most medical plans
- 16 weeks paid Parental Leave for all new parents
- Health & wellness stipend
- Remote workspace, internet, and cellphone stipend
- Commuter benefits for team members who report to the SF and NYC office
- Family planning benefits
- Matching 401(k) contribution with immediate vesting
- Flexible PTO policy, plus 80 hours of Sick Time
- 11 company-paid holidays
- Virtual team building activities, lunch and learns, and other company-wide events!
- Offices in SF, NYC, London, Dublin, Tel Aviv, and Sydney

To provide greater transparency to candidates, we share base pay ranges for all US-based job postings regardless of state. We set standard base pay ranges for all roles based on function, level, and country location, benchmarked against similar-stage growth companies. Final offer amounts are determined by multiple factors and may vary based on candidate location, skills, depth of work experience, and relevant licenses/credentials.

#LI-remote

At Vanta, we are committed to hiring diverse talent of different backgrounds and as such, it is important to us to provide an inclusive work environment for all. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, gender identity, age, religion, sexual orientation, veteran or disability status, or any other protected class. As an equal opportunity employer, we encourage and welcome people of all backgrounds to apply.

## 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.
