Biomedical Engineering Manager Canada jobs

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.

The Customer Trust team owns the products that help organizations put security assessments on autopilot, and this Engineering Management role leads the squad building it. With 11 engineers across the Trust Center and Questionnaire product, you'll drive two of Vanta's most strategically important roadmaps: fully automating inbound customer assessments make it easy for our customers to project trust transparently to their customers

This is an execution-first role in one of Vanta's highest-visibility product areas. The roadmap is defined, product-market fit is proven, and the opportunity is in leading these squads to deliver with urgency and precision, at the intersection of agentic AI innovation and enterprise expansion.

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.
