资深软件工程师, Vanta政府版
Staff Software Engineer, Vanta for Government
在 Vanta,我们的使命是帮助企业在赢得和证明信任方面取得成功。我们相信安全应该持续监控和验证,我们赋能企业实践更好的安全措施,并轻松地加以证明。Vanta 有一支善良且才华横溢的团队,虽然一些成员有之前的安全经验,但许多人在没有相关经验的情况下也在 Vanta 取得了成功。
作为 Vanta for Government 团队的高级软件工程师,你将为 Vanta 进入公共部门的扩展奠定技术基础:设计系统、模式和架构,从零开始为政府供应商和机构打造合规项目。
Vanta for Government 团队正在构建和优化 Vanta 的人工智能驱动平台,服务于政府供应商、联邦机构以及州、地方和教育(SLED)组织。我们的目标是让政府合规不再困难,而是更加简单:帮助组织自动化复杂框架如 FedRAMP、CMMC 和 NIST 中的繁重工作,加强其安全态势,并更有信心地支持关键任务。
你将直接与早期设计合作伙伴一起实时塑造新功能。作为团队中资历最深的工程师,你将在一个关键的建设阶段担任技术核心——做出架构决策,建立工程模式,并推动多个季度的项目,这些项目将定义 Vanta 如何大规模服务政府客户。

你在 Vanta 担任高级软件工程师时的工作内容包括:
- 负责 Vanta 政府产品线的技术战略和架构,设计能够适应联邦机构、政府供应商和 SLED 组织需求的系统
- 领导全新产品功能的设计和开发——包括目前 Vanta 产品中尚不存在的核心合规工作流功能——并与早期设计合作伙伴合作,随着需求的变化进行验证和迭代
- 定义可复用的抽象和平台模式,防止团队从首批政府客户扩展到更广泛的机构和供应商时产生技术债务
- 与相邻的工程团队合作,共同开发支撑政府特定合规流程的共享基础设施和标签系统,基于现有的平台投资进行建设

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 Staff Software Engineer on the Vanta for Government team, you'll set the technical foundation for Vanta's expansion into the public sector: designing the systems, patterns, and architecture that will power compliance programs from the ground up for government vendors and agencies.
The Vanta for Government team is building and evolving Vanta's AI-powered platform for government vendors, federal agencies, and State, Local, and Education (SLED) organizations. Our mission is to make government compliance not easy, but easier: helping organizations automate the heavy lifting across complex frameworks like FedRAMP, CMMC, and NIST, strengthen their security posture, and support mission-critical work with greater confidence.
You’ll work directly alongside early design partners to shape new capabilities in real time. As the most senior engineer on the team, you'll be the technical anchor through a critical build phase — making the architectural decisions, establishing engineering patterns, and driving the multi-quarter initiatives that will define how Vanta serves government customers at scale.

What you'll do as a Staff Software Engineer at Vanta:
- Own the technical strategy and architecture for Vanta's government product line, designing systems that adapt Vanta's core compliance platform to meet the demands of federal agencies, government vendors, and SLED organizations
- Lead the design and build of net-new product capabilities — including core compliance workflow features that don't yet exist in Vanta's product today — working alongside early design partners to validate and iterate as requirements evolve
- Define reusable abstractions and platform patterns that prevent technical debt as the team scales from its first government customers to a broader portfolio of agencies and vendors
- Partner with adjacent engineering teams on shared infrastructure and tagging systems that underpin government-specific compliance workflows, building on existing platform investments rather than starting from scratch
- Drive multi-quarter technical initiatives across engineering, product, and go-to-market, translating ambiguous early-stage requirements into durable, scalable solutions
- Raise the technical bar for a team of mid-level and senior engineers through mentorship, code review, engineering practice-setting, and high-quality technical decision-making
How to be successful in this role:
- 10+ years of deep backend engineering experience with a track record of leading complex, multi-quarter technical initiatives in fast-paced, product-focused environments
- Strong systems thinking and platform architecture skills: you design for reuse, scalability, and long-term maintainability, and naturally think in terms of abstractions and patterns
- Experience in highly regulated industries such as fintech or healthcare; FedRAMP or government domain experience is a plus, but not required
- Comfortable operating in early-stage, 0→1 environments where requirements evolve as you learn from customers and technical decisions carry real business consequences
- A strong product mindset: you understand that shipping matters, can prioritize against real deadlines, and balance technical rigor with delivery velocity
- Exceptional communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to influence technical direction across engineering and bridge technical and non-technical stakeholders
- Proven ability to mentor and develop engineers, with a track record of raising team-wide technical quality and building strong engineering culture
- Open to using AI to amplify your skills and strengthen your work - demonstrating curiosity, a willingness to learn, and sound judgment in applying AI responsibly to improve efficiency and impact.

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.
