Staff Security Engineer, Product Security and Architecture

About the role

At Compass, our mission is to help everyone find their place in the world. Founded in 2012, we’re revolutionizing the real estate industry with our end-to-end platform that empowers residential real estate agents to deliver exceptional service to seller and buyer clients. Compass International Holdings (CIH) is the largest residential real estate platform in the world, established by the January 2026 merger of Compass and Anywhere Real Estate. CIH's mission is to help everyone find their place in the world — and to build the single software platform for all real estate activity, at a scale and complexity few technology companies ever operate at. The Security organization protects one of the largest and most complex real estate technology estates in the industry. We are hands‑on engineers who build security as a service: secure‑by‑design tooling, automated guardrails, and trusted partnership with Engineering, rather than gatekeeping. As a Staff Security Engineer, you are empowered to directly drive technical security results and shape the roadmaps that our engineering teams adopt and build against.
