About Veza
Veza is the authorization platform for data security. Identity and security professionals use Veza to modernize access governance for the new data landscape. By automating the work of finding and fixing excessive permissions on a continuous basis, Veza helps organizations achieve Least Privilege. Veza's unique approach ingests metadata from any app or data system, organizes it as an authorization graph, and makes it searchable in real-time. Global enterprises like Blackstone, Wynn Resorts, Choice Hotels, and many more trust Veza to protect sensitive data and automate access reviews. Founded in 2020, Veza is headquartered in Los Gatos, California, and is funded by Accel, Bain Capital, Ballistic Ventures, GV, Norwest Venture Partners, and True Ventures.

About the Opportunity
As the VP of Product, you'll lead the team to build Veza Authorization Platform and lay the foundation for an iconic company. Today, we have three products: Search and Insights, Access Review Workflows, and Activity Monitoring. Search and Insights allow users to visualize the reality of access permissions to enterprise resources, find risk-prioritized misconfigurations with both pre-built and custom queries, and send alerts to your preferred enterprise collaboration systems. Access Review Workflows allow users to set up certification campaigns, managers or resource owners to review and validate permissions, and auditors to get full visibility and tracking of the access review process and certification results. Activity Monitoring provides an additional powerful layer of event data, adding insight into who performed what specific action, with better intelligence around dormant permissions and overall user risk. The platform connects to a wide range of cloud IAM, on-prem systems, identity providers, cloud platforms, structured data, unstructured data, and apps (both 3rd party and custom), to understand and manage data permissions. The platform also has the Open Authorization API, allowing customers to connect essentially any SaaS app or system to Veza.
