Vanta Senior Systems Designer at Vanta builds the operating system for engineering, product, and design delivery using Jira as the substrate. This role owns workflow design, automation, and adoption to ensure real practice aligns with Jira and fixes delivery breakdowns at the mechanism level.

Responsibilities

The EPD Systems team is building the infrastructure Vanta's engineering, product, and design organization depends on to understand itself and operate well. We're constructing three interlocking layers: sources of truth at the foundation, a shared interpretive layer that reasons across all of them, and the operating system that makes the work itself legible. This role owns the operating system.
This is not a traditional PMO or status-reporting role. You build — agents, automation, workflow design, and the practices that make teams want to use the system rather than route around it.
Design and own workflow and hierarchy across engineering, product, and design in Jira
Make sure Jira reflects real practice, and real practice reflects what needs to show up in Jira — in both directions
Build the agents and automation that run the system yourself, with AI as part of how you work
Drive adoption: go to the teams whose practice doesn't match the substrate today and change that — through conversation, well-built artifacts, or clear instruction that works without you in the room
Understand delivery breakdowns at the mechanism level and build fixes that address the root cause, not the symptom
Build alongside teammates who are growing into more technical work — raise their ceiling, not just your own output
How to be successful in this role:
You build and ship, recently, with AI as part of how you work. "I'd ask an engineer to build that" is not a valid answer here
You find the mechanism that's actually failing before you reach for a tool. Your default is to remove steps, not add them
You move toward a solution now. You don't wait for a green light to start, and you can name a real decision you made and acted on without checking first
