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 Product Designer, Agent Experience at Vanta, you will define how AI agents help security and compliance teams accomplish meaningful work with greater clarity, control, and trust across Vanta and the surfaces where our customers already work. The Agent Experience team builds agent-led experiences that help security and compliance teams achieve outcomes with less manual effort. The team owns the agent harness, including agents, skills, tools, and memory, as well as the patterns that help customers understand, guide, review, correct, and trust agent-generated work. Our goal is to make AI-powered workflows useful, transparent, and dependable in a product where clarity and correctness matter. As a Senior Product Designer on this team, you will shape both the underlying agent experience and the c

You're an experienced product manager. You have a track record of owning complex, user-facing products end to end — setting direction and shipping to real users — with the scope and judgment this senior role calls for. You've built for company admins, and you've built it for customers. You've shipped software to the personas who keep a company running — finance, accounting, HR, payroll, IT, compliance, data — and you know how much this can vary from one company to the next. It matters that this was product you sold to other companies, not an internal system inside your own. Depth in company workflows or in data and reporting, and genuine interest in the other — the queues, approvals, and exceptions an admin works through, or how people get answers out of their own data and what it takes to model it so those answers are right. You have technical depth, and you've worked on systems without a single correct answer. Having built agentic software is a strong plus. Probabilistic, optimization-driven systems where "done" doesn't exist and the work is making it steadily better: AI/ML, search and ranking, marketplace matching, risk and fraud detection, game engines

Renderjobs.ashbyhq.com · 7 August 2026 · 2 jobs
Render 7+ years of product design experience , ideally on developer tools, infrastructure, APIs, or another technical, credibility-driven product. You may have worked as a product designer, a designer who codes, or something harder to label — the title matters less than the work. At this level, we expect someone who has owned a major surface or product area end to end and set the direction others built against. Craft that spans GUI and non-GUI surfaces. You have an eye for detail that borders on obsessive — the wording of an error, the shape of a command, the structure of an API response, the spacing of a dashboard — and you're as rigorous about a CLI message or an SDK method as you are about a screen. Your portfolio shows strong web UI work alongside text-first thinking: command design, API ergonomics, MCP/SDK design, docs-as-experience, or conversational interfaces. You design the whole journey, not a surface at a time. Your portfolio shows end-to-end experiences — a user carried coherently across interface boundaries, CLI to API to SDK to dashboard and back — where you designed the model once and expressed it everywhere it appears, rather than polishing one surface in isolation.
