Software Engineer, Integrations Platform, Vanta For Government (V4G)

What you’ll do as a Software Engineer at Vanta

• Design, build, and own full-stack features and platform primitives that internal teams, partners, and customers build on.
• Deploy, operate, support, and maintain integrations running in Vanta's Government Cloud, including monitoring, on-call / incident response, and change management within the GovCloud boundary.
• Contribute to our authentication, data-ingestion, and schema-evolution services, keeping integrations with external systems secure and reliable.
• Partner with federal subject-matter experts to implement and maintain continuous-monitoring detectors and automated tests, with versioned framework mappings.
• Build secure, well-documented, scalable services and UI with TypeScript, React, and Node.js.
• Improve performance, operational excellence, and SDLC practices within the team.
• Use AI tools and workflows to accelerate development and operations.

How to be successful in this role

• 6+ years of full-stack development building reliable, scalable, fault-tolerant systems.
• Platform and API design: you've built APIs and reusable components others depend on, with a solid grounding in RESTful APIs, authentication protocols (OAuth, API keys, JWT), and security best practices.
• Data integrations: you've built data ingestion from external systems (Cloud Providers, HRIS, Identity Providers, Code Repositories) using best practices like rate limiting, retries and idempotency, and webhooks.
• Systems thinking: you design for scale, reliability, and failure modes. You look around corners, address edge cases, and proactively identify and address risk.
• Collaboration: you partner with internal teams, Federal agencies employees, vendors, and Third-Party Assessment Organization (3PAOs) to achieve mutual success. You incorporate their feedback into your designs, and are on a clear trajectory to broader technical ownership.
• Interest in security or compliance: you're motivated by building trustworthy systems in a regulated environment.
• 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.

Requirements

• Physical location: you must reside in, and perform all work exclusively from within, the United States, accessing systems only from U.S. locations.
• Work Authorization Requirements: You must be authorized to work in the United States without the need for employer sponsorship

Preferred qualifications

• Familiarity with compliance frameworks (FedRAMP, NIST 800-53, FISMA) and how they apply to cloud and integration environments.
• Experience building or operating in a government or otherwise regulated cloud environment (e.g., AWS GovCloud, Azure Government, or GCP) - deep familiarity with one translates well to the others.
