Senior Product Designer, Agent Experience

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 customer-facing workflows built on top of it. You will partner with Product, Engineering, Research, Data, AI Quality, and customer-facing teams to turn ambiguous problems into thoughtful, scalable, and trustworthy experiences. The patterns you establish will influence product teams across Vanta.

What you’ll do as a Senior Product Designer, Agent Experience at Vanta:

Lead end-to-end design for projects across the agent harness, from problem framing and discovery through launch and iteration.

Define how agents, skills, tools, and memory are composed, surfaced, and understood by customers.

Design experiences that help customers delegate real security and compliance work while maintaining visibility, control, and confidence.

Create patterns for reviewing, correcting, approving, interrupting, and recovering from agent-generated work.

Design conversational and agent interaction models across Vanta, Slack, and other surfaces where our agents appear.

Establish product patterns and principles for trustworthy agent behavior, including transparency, permissions, uncertainty, explainability, and graceful failure.

Partner with Product and Engineering to evaluate when an agent is the right solution for a customer problem.

Conduct customer discovery and usability testing with security, compliance, and GRC users.

Translate customer insights, product requirements, technical constraints, and AI quality considerations into clear design direction.

Collaborate with Design Systems and product designers across Vanta to turn emerging AI patterns into reusable, high-quality experiences.

Create design briefs, workflow models, prototypes, specifications, and other artifacts that bring clarity to complex problems.

Communicate design rationale, tradeoffs, risks, and recommendations clearly to cross-functional partners and leadership.

Contribute to design critique and help raise the quality bar for interaction design, information architecture, UX writing, and visual craft.

Help shape how Vanta approaches responsible AI and human control across the product.

Identify opportunities to improve how the design organization and product teams work together.

How to be successful in this role:

7+ years of product design experience, with depth in B2B SaaS, complex workflows, or other sophisticated software products.

Experience designing AI-powered products, automation, or systems where product behavior may be dynamic or uncertain.

Ability to design agent experiences beyond chat, including systems involving agents, skills, tools, memory, and multi-step workflows.
