About The Position

At Vanta, our mission is to help businesses earn and prove trust. 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. As a Senior Salesforce Engineer at Vanta, you will design and build the technical systems that power our rapidly growing go-to-market organization. You'll develop scalable Salesforce solutions, architect integrations across our GTM tech stack, and partner closely with Revenue Operations to enable our Sales, Customer Success, and Marketing teams. The Business Systems team owns the platforms and infrastructure that GTM teams rely on daily. We build and maintain Salesforce, integration workflows, data pipelines, and automation that help Vanta scale efficiently while delivering exceptional customer experiences. As Vanta continues to grow, your work will directly enable that growth by ensuring our systems can support increasing complexity and volume. You'll bring deep technical expertise in Salesforce development—particularly Apex coding, data modeling, and system architecture—combined with strong integration skills. You'll work on challenging problems involving system performance, data integrity, complex business logic, and connecting multiple platforms. This role balances hands-on development with technical leadership, as you'll mentor teammates and contribute to technical strategy while shipping code daily.
