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.
Задачи
Manager, AI Engineering, you will lead a small, senior team, write the charter for what Corporate Engineering owns versus enables, and build the platform that lets the rest of Vanta adopt AI quickly without accumulating cost, risk, or duplication
What you’ll do as a Senior Manager, AI Corporate Engineering at Vanta
Lead, coach, and grow a senior team spanning platform engineering and technical program management
Set clear direction, hold a high bar, and give the team explicit permission to push back with data
Own the AI access layer end to end: identity and authentication for AI tools, connector and integration allowlisting, tiered permissions by function, and guardrails that make adoption safe by default rather than safe by exception
Own AI cost engineering
Build attribution down to team and individual, right-size model selection to actual need, make agent and automation spend traceable, and set budget thresholds and alerting in partnership with Finance
Own the MCP layer for internal tools end to end, including commissioning, decommissioning, governance, and the downstream impact assessment that has to happen before a migration ships rather than after it breaks
Own the paved path for internal applications: a golden-path deployment pattern, sensible defaults including private-by-default, lifecycle and decommissioning policy so unused apps retire themselves, and a build-versus-buy framework that keeps people from rebuilding tools we already own
Build the enablement layer that turns adoption into impact: a skills and agent registry that cuts duplication, an evaluation framework for internal AI usage, and technical enablement on sanctioned tools that goes beyond provisioning access
Write and hold the charter
Define what Corporate Engineering owns, what it enables, and how work enters the team, then convene the cross-functional forum that keeps departmental AI efforts coordinated rather than duplicated
Partner across Engineering, GRC, Security, Data, Finance, and People
Several of the levers this role depends on sit in those organizations, so the job is to coordinate and influence rather than override
How to be successful in this role
Experience standing up an internal AI or developer platform function rather than inheriting a mature one
Требования
You have written the charter, defined intake, and built the roadmap from a blank page
The ability to hold scope
You can take a commitment that was made without scoping or resourcing, land a bounded first version, and decline the rest without it reading as abdication
Fluency in AI cost engineering: usage attribution, model right-sizing, token economics, agent cost traceability, and the difference between a hard limit and a useful guardrail
An enablement-first instinct
Your default question is how to make something safe to self-serve
When you do have to decline access, you always explain why and offer an alternative path to the same visibility
Hands-on technical depth across LLM platform tooling, agent and MCP architecture, identity and OAuth, CI/CD, and infrastructure as code
Enough to review a design honestly and tell the difference between real risk and reported progress
Comfort building for an audience that is no longer only engineers
A growing share of the people shipping internal tools are not developers, and the platform has to work for them without lowering the security bar
Data governance fluency in a regulated environment
You know what should never enter a prompt, a repository, or a third-party tool, and you can make that judgment fast without becoming the bottleneck
Comfort operating through influence. Product AI, security policy, data platform, and budget authority all sit in partner organizations
8+ years in platform, infrastructure, or systems engineering, including 3+ years managing and developing engineers, ideally at a company that scaled through a significant headcount inflection
Must be authorized to work in the U.S. without the need for current or future employer sponsorship
Open to using AI to amplify their skills and strengthen their work, demonstrating curiosity, a willingness to learn, and sound judgment in applying AI responsibly to improve efficiency and impact
