Senior Software Engineer

About us

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.

[Must be based out of Ontario or British Columbia]

We currently partner with Deel (Deel.com) as our employer of record* in Canada.

Role Summary
