Salesforce 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 Salesforce Engineer at Vanta, you will develop technical systems and build Salesforce solutions that power our go-to-market organization. You'll build integrations, develop automations, and partner with Business Systems and Revenue Operations teams to enable our Sales, Customer Success, and Marketing teams to scale efficiently.

The Business Systems team owns the platforms and infrastructure that GTM teams rely on daily. We build and maintain Salesforce, integration workflows, data pipelines, and automation that help Vanta scale while delivering exceptional customer experiences. As Vanta continues to grow, your work will directly enable that growth by building systems that support increasing complexity and volume.

You'll bring technical expertise in Salesforce development—including Apex coding, declarative automation (Flows), data modeling, and integrations—combined with strong problem-solving skills. You'll work on challenging technical problems involving system integrations, data architecture, and business logic implementation. This role balances hands-on development with cross-functional collaboration as you ship code daily while partnering with stakeholders across GTM teams.

What you’ll do as a Salesforce Engineer at Vanta:

• Build Salesforce solutions using both code (Apex, Lightning Web Components) and no-code tools (Flows, Process Builder, Validation Rules, Formula Fields)

• Build and maintain integrations between Salesforce and GTM tools using Workato, APIs, and integration best practices

• Contribute to data modeling and architecture decisions to ensure data integrity and system performance

• Partner with Business Systems teammates and Revenue Operations stakeholders to translate business requirements into technical solutions

• Write clean, maintainable, and well-tested code following Salesforce best practices

• Troubleshoot technical issues across the GTM systems landscape

• Participate in code reviews, deployment processes, and technical documentation

• Optimize system performance and contribute to reducing technical debt

• Support release planning and contribute to technical roadmap discussions

How to be successful in this role:

• 5+ years of Salesforce development experience with Apex programming skills

• Experience with Salesforce data modeling, system design, and building scalable solutions

• Experience building integrations between Salesforce and third-party systems

• Familiarity with integration platforms such as Workato, Zapier, MuleSoft, or similar tools

• JavaScript experience for building custom user interfaces

• Understanding of Salesforce best practices including governor limits, bulkification, and design patterns

• Experience with version control (Git) and deployment tools (Salesforce DX, Gearset, or similar)

• Ability to troubleshoot technical issues and debug across integrated systems

• Strong communication skills with ability to explain technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders

• Experience working with Revenue Operations, Sales Operations, or similar business teams

• Salesforce certifications (Platform Developer I/II) are a plus but not required

• 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.

What you can expect as a Vanta’n:

• Industry-competitive salary and equity

• Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage, with 100% of employee-only benefit premiums covered for most medical plans

• 16 weeks fully-paid Parental Leave for all new parents

• Health & wellness stipend

• Remote workspace, internet, and cellphone stipend

• Commuter benefits for team members who report to the SF and NYC office

• Family planning benefits

• Matching 401(k) contribution with immediate vesting

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.
