Principal Product Manager, Platform

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 the Principal Product Manager of Vanta’s Platform teams, you will define and deliver the core capabilities that power all of Vanta’s products: Identity (RBAC, SCIM), Permissions, Enterprise Admin, Collaboration (notifications, tasks, comments), Billing Infrastructure, and other shared product experiences. This is a deeply technical and highly cross-functional role. You’ll define platform strategy in tight partnership with Engineering, Design, and GTM teams, and drive major company-wide initiatives that enable scale, shaping the internal platforms that product teams build on top of, as well as experiences our largest customers rely on every day. You’ll also contribute to the definition of Vanta’s product team culture and processes, while providing mentorship to a growing team of PM’s.

What you’ll do as a Principal Product Manager at Vanta:

• Own and scale Vanta’s product platform, including identity, permissioning, billing, notifications, audit/event logging, and more

• Define platform vision and long-term roadmap, ensuring it meets the needs of product teams and customers at scale

• Drive platform alignment across teams, shaping shared systems that accelerate development and improve consistency

• Act as DRI for key platform-related business metrics, including:

  • Performance & scalability of the platform for our largest customers

  • Enterprise admin/security experiences (identity, billing, etc.)

  • Collaboration primitives (notifications, tasks, comments)

• Partner cross-functionally across Engineering, Design, PMM, Sales, and Support to define and deliver seamless platform experiences

• Mentor and coach PMs working on platform-adjacent areas and contribute to broader product team culture

How to be successful in this role:

• 15+ years of product management experience, with significant time spent in platform or infrastructure-adjacent teams

• Deep technical fluency — able to engage in architecture discussions, make system-level tradeoffs, and work closely with senior engineers

• Experience scaling B2B SaaS platforms from SMB to Enterprise (e.g. identity systems, permissioning, internal tooling, extensible primitives)

• Proven ability to set product vision and influence strategy across teams or product areas

• A track record of driving impact through ambiguity — bringing clarity, prioritization, and execution to complex problem spaces

• Passion for building high quality products with speed, and drive that culture across the organization

• Strong product instincts, user empathy, and a collaborative working style

• Proven ability to coach and mentor PMs, helping them translate high-level strategy into actionable team roadmaps.
