Your impact and why VGS needs you:
VGS is looking for an exceptional principal product manager to drive product strategy and execution of our Zero Data™ platform. The VGS platform, including VGS Vault and proxy management, is a secure platform to collect, store, and exchange sensitive and confidential data.
VGS platform now processes billions of records of sensitive data, and its data under management has grown more than 10x year-over-year. Companies ranging from the Fortune 100 to innovators like Brex, Deserve, Doordash, Fast, and Mercury increasingly leverage the VGS platform to facilitate the secure exchange of their sensitive data while retaining ownership and control over sensitive data and transferring data custodianship to VGS. The Zero Data™ approach eliminates the need for companies to store sensitive data within their own systems, streamlining regulatory compliance and certifications including PCI-DSS and SOC 2. For example, banking-as-a-service Unit Finance uses VGS to expedite connectivity to payments networks while offloading PCI-DSS complexity. .
