Staff Product Manager, Data Platform - vanta

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 the Staff Product Manager, Data Platform at Vanta, you will be responsible for product strategy and direction for Vanta’s data platform. You’ll sit between the core platform and feature teams, driving the roadmap for transforming how we fetch, store, and use data from customers and 3rd parties at scale.

This platform directly enables customer and business outcomes, and backs Vanta’s products and experiences. This is a highly impactful, technical role at the center of how Vanta works and meets customer needs at real scale. Vanta manages data from over 16,000 customers and is rapidly scaling daily.

You’ll be part of Vanta’s Automation group, which owns how customers discover and connect to other platforms through integrations, use that data to power product experiences and tests, drive customers toward compliance-related security outcomes, and ultimately generate the evidence required for audit.

You aren’t building Vanta’s service delivery platform - you’re building the engine that powers compliance and monitoring outcomes. Foundations has wide scope and depth, and you’ll be the sole PM to support the data platform.
