首席软件工程师，程序结构
Principal Software Engineer, Program Structure
在 Vanta，我们的使命是帮助企业在赢得并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，并轻松地证明这一点。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，但许多人在没有这些经验的情况下也在 Vanta 取得了成功。
Vanta 的治理与合规平台是企业信赖的运营层，用于运行他们的安全计划。我们正在招聘一名工程师，他将负责使该平台适用于最复杂的组织结构的架构基础。
程序结构与信任是一个新成立的小组，有着明确的使命：构建企业组织模型，让客户能够将他们的合规和安全结构——产品线、业务单元、隔离的数据环境、跨领域的审计、范围审批以及数据驻留要求——原生地集成到平台上。这个团队解决的问题决定了 Vanta 是否能为越来越多赢得的企业客户服务。
这是该小组中最重要的技术角色。首席工程师负责 Vanta 企业组织模型的设计、分阶段交付以及长期技术方向——这是一个跨季度的项目，贯穿整个平台，并为企业的客户如何在 Vanta 中构建、划分和运作奠定基础。

作为 Vanta 的首席工程师，你将：
- 负责 Vanta 企业组织模型的设计和跨季度交付，包括层级产品线和业务单元、隔离的数据访问和所有权、跨领域审计流程、范围审批以及欧盟和 GovCloud 数据驻留支持
- 定义并演进核心抽象概念，使平台能够吸收结构多样且常常存在冲突的企业需求——解决通用情况而非单个客户的特殊需求
- 对现有生产系统进行改造，以适应多租户组织结构：设计安全的迁移路径，逐步推进交付，并在架构演进过程中保持现有客户的连续性
- 每个季度推出有意义的客户价值，同时朝着完整解决方案推进——这需要具备产品判断力，直接与企业客户互动，并具备清晰界定目标的纪律性

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.
Vanta's Governance and Compliance platform is the operating layer enterprises trust to run their security programs. We are hiring an engineer who will own the architectural foundation that makes it work for their most complex organizational structures.
Program Structure and Trust is a newly chartered group at Vanta with a focused mission: build the enterprise org model that lets customers bring their compliance and security structure — product lines, business units, isolated data environments, cross-cutting audits, scoped approvals, and data residency requirements — natively into the platform. The problems this team solves determine whether Vanta can serve the enterprise customers it's increasingly winning.
This is the defining technical role of the group. The Principal Engineer owns the design, phased delivery, and long-term technical direction of Vanta's enterprise org model — a multi-quarter initiative that cuts across the platform and establishes the foundation for how enterprise customers structure, segment, and operate inside Vanta.

What you’ll do as a Principal Engineer at Vanta:
- Own the design and multi-quarter delivery of Vanta's enterprise org model, including hierarchical product lines and business units, isolated data access and ownership, cross-cutting audit workflows, scoped approvals, and EU and GovCloud data residency support
- Define and evolve the core abstractions that let the platform absorb structurally diverse, often conflicting enterprise requirements — solving for the general case rather than one-off customer accommodations
- Retrofit a live production system toward a multi-tenant org structure: design safe migration paths, sequence delivery incrementally, and preserve continuity for existing customers as the architecture evolves
- Carve out and ship meaningful customer value each quarter while progressing toward the full solution — this requires product judgment, direct engagement with enterprise customers, and the discipline to draw clean increment lines through a complex problem space
- Drive execution across squads outside your direct area, building alignment through technical clarity and credibility rather than authority
- Partner with Engineering leadership, Product, and Design to translate the long-term vision for enterprise structure into phased, deliverable work
- Set the technical standard for the group — define patterns others build to, shape architecture across teams, and model the engineering excellence the Program Structure and Trust charter is organized around
How to be successful in this role:
- 15+ years of deep backend engineering experience with a track record of leading complex, multi-quarter technical initiatives in fast-paced, product-focused environments
- Designed platform abstractions that absorbed messy, conflicting enterprise requirements across a diverse customer base — you've solved for the general case, not the loudest customer request
- A track record of shipping in stages: you've moved large, structurally complex problems forward incrementally, with each phase standing on its own, without getting ahead of what customers and the product can absorb
- A history of operating effectively across squads and teams you don't own — alignment built through technical clarity and credibility, not org chart proximity
- Deep familiarity with enterprise architectural patterns: tenancy models, role-based access control, data isolation, scoped permissions, cross-tenant operations, and access boundary design
- Strong communication skills — you make complex systems legible to engineering leadership, product partners, and customer-facing stakeholders, in writing and in the room
- Data residency or GovCloud exposure is a plus; the right person ramps on this in a quarter once the core structural problems are in hand
- 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.
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

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.
