Job Description

At Vanta, our mission is to secure the internet and protect consumer data. 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 Technical Accountant at Vanta, you will be a go-to resource for accounting research, documenting and writing / updating accounting memos related to complex accounting treatments, such as Internally-developed Software, Equity-related activities, Goodwill, M&A activities and others as needed.  You will be responsible for accounting for technical accounting activities on a periodic basis including involvement in preparing journal entries and reconciliations as well as helping draft audited financial statements and disclosures.

What you’ll do as a Technical Accountant at Vanta:

  • Participate in close-related activities to ensure complete and accurate financials in accordance with U.S. GAAP/IFRS, including preparing journal entries and account reconciliations within the established close timeline

  • Research technical accounting guidance and prepare / update accounting memos as needed

  • Prepare calculations for journal entries and reconciliations related to internally-developed software, stock-based compensation, and other equity-related activities

  • Partner with Accounting management to provide guidance and assistance with ad-hoc projects

  • Assist in preparation of audited financial statements and disclosures

How to be successful in this role:

  • 5+ years of technical accounting experience 

  • Prior experience as a Big 4 auditor and technical accountant at a software company

  • Strong knowledge of US GAAP, IFRS, PCAOB standards, and SOX/Internal controls

  • Extreme attention to detail and ability to simultaneously research discrepancies and solve problems

  • Strong interpersonal and communication skills

  • Be proactive and have a strong desire for success

  • Experience in Netsuite a plus

What you can expect as a Vantan:

  • Industry-competitive compensation

  • 100% covered medical, dental, and vision benefits with dependents coverage

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

  • Health & wellness and remote workplace stipends

  • 401(k) matching

  • Flexible work hours and location

  • Open PTO policy

  • 9 paid holidays in the US

  • Offices in SF, NYC, Dublin, and Sydney

To provide greater transparency to candidates, we share base pay ranges for all US-based job postings regardless of state. We set standard base pay ranges for all roles based on function, level, and country location, benchmarked against similar-stage growth companies. Final offer amounts are determined by multiple factors, including candidate location, skills, depth of work experience, and relevant licenses/credentials, and may vary from the amounts listed below. The salary or OTE range for this position is $128,000 - $151,000. This role may also be eligible for commissions/bonus, equity, medical benefits, 401(k) plan, and other company perk programs.

At Vanta, we are committed to hiring diverse talent of different backgrounds and as such, it is important to us to provide an inclusive work environment for all. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, gender identity, age, religion, sexual orientation, veteran or disability status, or any other protected class. As an equal opportunity employer, we encourage and welcome people of all backgrounds to apply.

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.
