Staff Product Designer, Product Platform

At Vanta, our mission is to secure the internet and protect consumer data. We achieve this by empowering companies to adopt better security practices and demonstrate them effortlessly. Security should be continuously monitored and verified, and at Vanta, we are committed to making that process straightforward. Vanta operates as a collaborative, remote-first company and values alignment with our core principles.

We are seeking a B2B Staff Product Designer to join our Product Platform team. In this role, you'll focus on designing intuitive and scalable platform-wide features, such as collaboration tools (comments, tasks, ownership), notifications, access management, and billing. These features are essential for providing consistent experiences across our Vanta products.

The ideal candidate will have a strong track record in crafting high-impact B2B SaaS features with a consumer-grade level of quality, delivering substantial value to customers.

The Experience Design organization champions our customers by creating and delivering efficient consumer grade experiences through our trust management platform. We aim to earn their trust and contribute to a more secure internet. By providing valuable solutions, we empower Vanta to grow as a business. Our role is vital to the company’s strategic direction, and you will have a significant impact on our product development.

• Collaborate and advocate by working closely with your product team to identify and promote design initiatives that have a broad organizational impact.

• Foster collaboration with your design peers to ensure that shared solutions effectively address the needs of different areas of the platform.

• Develop frameworks and create clear guidelines to support design decisions and help your peers easily adopt new patterns.

• Contribute to our design system, ensuring new additions support strategic objectives and maintain high design standards.

  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.
