Job summary

Vanta is seeking a Senior Systems Designer to own the operating system for EPD, building agents, automation, and workflows within Jira to empower engineering, product, and design teams. This role focuses on delivering practical, scalable systems that teams want to use, integrating AI to augment capabilities and improve efficiency.

The role emphasizes adoption across teams, root-cause fixes for delivery breakdowns, and mentoring teammates stepping into more technical work.

Responsibilities

• 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
