About this role

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. Vanta is hiring for a Head of Design (VP) to lead our design organization - setting direction for a ~40-person team, shaping the next generation of AI-native product experiences, and building the quality systems that let great design ship at scale. The Design team at Vanta shapes how security and compliance teams experience Vanta - from a startup founder building their security program for the first time to an enterprise security team managing hundreds of controls. The org spans all areas of Vanta - GRC, Trust, Platform, Self-serve, and AI - and includes product designers, visual designers, design engineering, content designers, and a user researcher, led by experienced design directors. As AI fundamentally changes what products can do and how they get built, this team is at an inflection point: the right leader will define what it means for a design org to be genuinely AI-forward - enabling designers to move faster, ship more, and contribute to product direction and delivery in new ways. This is the right role for a design leader who leads with AI fluency, brings strong taste and craft across interaction design and visual design, and has the operational instincts to build the systems that make quality a consistent property of the whole org. What you’ll do as Head of Design at Vanta: - Lead a team of ~40 designers and design directors across GRC, Trust, Platform, Self-serve, and AI - setting org-wide direction and enabling each leader to do their best work - Lead the team building the next generation of agentic, AI-native product experiences - defining what great design looks like as Vanta’s products are increasingly shaped by
