Job details

Backend Senior Software Engineer, Monetization Platform

At Vanta, our mission is to secure the internet and protect consumer data. 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. 

Our Senior Software Engineers lead and mentor engineers, delivering high-value products for our customers and infrastructure that enables our business to scale.

Vanta’s product monitors the security posture for thousands of companies, pulling tens of millions of API calls of data per day, pushing information from hundreds of thousands of laptop agents, and running tests against that data continuously to identify potential security threats. Our infrastructure and tooling need to stay ahead of exponential growth in our customer base. As a Senior Software Engineer at Vanta, you’ll be responsible for setting technical direction to provide a strong foundation for our infrastructure to scale with our business. You will also drive complex projects across our technical stack and mentor our talented engineering team. Your past experience will be leveraged to enable and accelerate Vanta’s growth.

What you’ll do as a Senior Software Engineer on the Monetization Platform team at Vanta:

The Monetization Platform team at Vanta is building an enterprise-grade revenue and entitlement platform to support our rapid upmarket expansion. These systems form the critical foundation for how customers purchase, access, and manage Vanta's products. We're solving complex technical challenges including data modeling for entitlements, ensuring transactional consistency across integrated financial systems, designing robust API contracts, and implementing metering infrastructure for usage-based billing.

As we scale to serve larger enterprises, we face unique engineering challenges in designing flexible systems that can support complex organizational structures, diverse purchasing patterns, and sophisticated partner ecosystems. In this role, you'll provide technical leadership to help architect solutions that seamlessly connect our customer-facing platform with our financial operations, enabling everything from streamlined enterprise procurement to partner-driven distribution models. 

Your work will establish reliable data flows across our business systems, reduce manual operations, and create scalable infrastructure that supports new commercial models. You'll evaluate integration approaches with financial platforms, build the connective tissue between systems, and ensure data consistency throughout our ecosystem. This role offers the unique opportunity to build systems that directly impact Vanta's growth trajectory while solving technically interesting distributed systems problems at the intersection of product, finance, and sales.

You will also:

  • Lead complex projects with multiple stakeholders and engineers to enable our business and team to scale

  • Provide technical direction for key monetization initiatives

  • Collaborate with GTM and Finance teams to ensure alignment between engineering systems and business needs

  • Support design reviews, communicate constraints, and help engineers make the right trade-offs

  • Act as a cultural beacon, setting an example for effective, collaborative engineering and helping mentor junior team members

  • Make effective tradeoffs that consider business priorities, user experience, and a sustainable technical foundation

  • Drive initiatives to increase operational posture and execution quality across the engineering organization

How to be successful in this role:

  • Have at least 8 years of industry experience with backend development

  • Experience with event-driven architecture and distributed systems

  • Strong background integrating with external APIs and services

  • Experience building platform services used by multiple teams

  • Strong data modeling skills for systems requiring transactional consistency

  • Knowledge of billing systems, payment processing, or subscription management

  • Understanding of financial data security and integrity requirements

  • Have led meaningful technical projects from concept to completion

  • Work well in environments that value decisive action and getting things done

  • Ability to collaborate effectively with partners in Finance and Sales

  • Interest in contributing to Vanta's engineering culture as we grow

What you can expect as a Vantan:

  • Industry-competitive compensation

  • 100% covered medical, dental, and vision benefits with dependents coverage

  • 16 weeks fully-paid parental Leave for all new parents

  • Health & wellness and remote workplace stipends

  • Family planning benefits through Carrot Fertility

  • 401(k) matching

  • Flexible work hours and location

  • Open PTO policy

  • 11 paid holidays in the US

  • Offices in SF, NYC, Dublin, and Sydney

To provide greater transparency to candidates, we share base pay ranges for all US-based job postings regardless of state. We set standard base pay ranges for all roles based on function, level, and country location, benchmarked against similar-stage growth companies. Final offer amounts are determined by multiple factors and may vary based on candidate location, skills, depth of work experience, and relevant licenses/credentials.

#LI-remote

At Vanta, we are committed to hiring diverse talent of different backgrounds and as such, it is important to us to provide an inclusive work environment for all. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, gender identity, age, religion, sexual orientation, veteran or disability status, or any other protected class. As an equal opportunity employer, we encourage and welcome people of all backgrounds to apply.

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.
