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.
Customers increasingly use AI agents like Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and internal Slack agents to run their business processes, and security and compliance work is no exception. For those agents to do that work, they need access to Vanta’s trust graph and intelligence layer. Vanta is building for that world: security and compliance products that customers can use through Vanta, through third-party agent platforms, and inside their own internal tools.
As Senior Product Manager, Agent Ecosystem, you will own Vanta’s external agent surfaces: MCP, CLI, and plugins in marketplaces like Claude Code, Codex, and ChatGPT. Your job is to make Vanta the trusted compliance layer that agents rely on. You will define the strategy, ship the products, and own the outcomes.
What you’ll do as a Senior Product Manager, Agent Ecosystem at Vanta:
- Own the strategy and roadmap for Vanta’s agent ecosystem products.
- Define how agents discover, access, and safely use Vanta capabilities, partnering with the platform teams that own APIs and authentication.
- Hold outcome parity as a product principle: work a customer can complete in Vanta should be possible through MCP, CLI, and plugin surfaces too.
- Lead marketplace and plugin launches, aligning product, engineering, legal, security, and go-to-market around each one.
- Partner with engineering and design to ship secure, reliable developer products.
- Build the developer-facing marketing motion: external agent documentation and customer stories that show what MCP and CLI users have unlocked.
- Partner with the product partnerships and alliances team on co-marketing with agent platforms like Anthropic and OpenAI, keeping a pulse on the agent ecosystem so Vanta is part of the key stacks.
- Define adoption and quality metrics, and use customer and product data to prioritize.
How to be successful in this role:
- 5+ years of product management experience, taking products from strategy through to shipped outcomes.
- Experience shipping developer-facing or programmatic products (APIs, integrations, plugins, SDKs, or CLI tools), and comfort treating MCP, CLI, and plugins as product surfaces.
- Technical fluency with APIs, authentication, and developer tools. Hands-on experience building with AI and agent tools, not just evaluating them.
- Experience taking complex products or partnerships from strategy through launch.
- Ability to connect ecosystem opportunities to customer problems and product outcomes.
- Experience building relationships with technology platforms, AI companies, developer communities, or enterprise customers.
- Experience leading cross-functional work across product, engineering, design, marketing, partnerships, legal, and go-to-market.
- Strong written and verbal communication, and sound judgment in ambiguous environments.
- Open to using AI to amplify their skills and strengthen their work, demonstrating curiosity, a willingness to learn, and sound judgment in applying AI responsibly to improve efficiency and impact.

About Vanta
We started in 2018, in the wake of several high-profile data breaches. Online security was only becoming more important, but we knew firsthand how hard it could be for fast-growing companies to invest the time and manpower it takes to build a solid security foundation. Vanta was inspired by a vision to restore trust in internet businesses by enabling companies to improve and prove their security. From our early days automating security monitoring for compliance standards like SOC 2, HIPAA and ISO 27001 to creating the world's leading Trust Management Platform, our vision remains unchanged.
Now more than ever, making security continuous—not just a point-in-time check— is essential. Thousands of companies rely on Vanta to build, maintain and demonstrate their trust— all in a way that's real-time and transparent.
