The Program Definition team at Vanta owns core surfaces, workflows, and tools that help our customers efficiently onboard and manage their security and compliance programs in Vanta. As Vanta’s customers grow and become more sophisticated, so do the programs they bring and manage in Vanta. You will be responsible for scaling our tools and workflows to help mid-market and enterprise customers onboard, manage, and evolve their programs. You’ll join a fully staffed team with a large backlog of improvements and new capabilities to drive.
