Senior Financial Systems Engineer

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 Financial Systems Engineer at Vanta, you will own the end-to-end health and evolution of the tech stack, data, and system integrations across our Procure to Pay and FP&A verticals, and be a technical lead for procurement, planning, and finance data systems. Vanta's Financial Systems function builds, maintains, and supports the tools that Vanta's Finance & Accounting operate on. The team builds scalable, integrated, and high value solutions that enable Finance, Accounting, and RevOps to move quickly without trading away accuracy or auditability. Vanta's Finance Systems team is early, and Procurement and FP&A have historically had little systems representation.

That makes this a rare chance to own foundational decisions rather than inherit them.
