Full Job Description

Come shape the future of education with us.

At Compass, we're on a mission to transform the school day for everyone - from staff and students to families and administrators. We build smart, seamless technology that empowers schools to focus on what really matters: learning, growing and thriving.

That mission has fuelled our growth into a global scale-up, now supporting 5,000+ schools across three countries, backed by a team of 300+ people. Our all-in-one school management platform is redefining how education communities connect, communicate and operate.

We're now looking for a Junior Cyber Security Engineer to join our Technology team in Melbourne.

About the Role

This is an entry-level role for someone curious, collaborative, and keen to grow their career in cyber security through real, hands-on work.

Working alongside experienced engineers, you'll help protect Compass' platforms, people, and data, contributing to meaningful security outcomes from day one.

What you'll do

Help monitor and triage security alerts, escalating anything significant to senior team members
Assist with vulnerability scans and follow-up remediation across applications and cloud environments
Investigate reported phishing, malware, and suspicious activity, and document what you find
Support incident response activities under the guidance of senior engineers
Help maintain security documentation, runbooks, and knowledge resources
Assist with compliance tasks such as evidence gathering and access reviews
Stay curious about emerging threats and share what you learn with the team
Ad-hoc tasks as requested by your manager

Requirements

About You

This role suits someone who is just starting to build their security toolkit - technically curious, comfortable diving into the detail, and keen to grow their skills across both the technical and communication sides of the craft.

You will bring:

An understanding of cyber security concepts and common threats
Familiarity with networking, operating systems, and at least one cloud platform
Some scripting ability, or a willingness to learn (Python, PowerShell, or Bash)
Strong curiosity, attention to detail, and a security-first mindset
Clear written and verbal communication
Eagerness to learn from senior team members and grow your career in cyber

Benefits

Why Join Compass

You’ll join a purpose-driven company at a genuinely exciting stage of growth, with the opportunity to make a real impact on education at scale.

What we offer:

A hybrid working environment, based out of our Melbourne office hub.
Learning and development opportunities, including a dedicated PD budget.
24/7 access to our Employee Assistance Program (EAP), including face-to-face, phone and live chat support.
A parental leave program for both primary and secondary carers.
Regular team events, social budgets and in-office perks help you stay connected, from team lunches to end-of-week socials.
Employee Referral Program
A supportive, inclusive culture where your voice is valued and heard.

Compass is proud to be an equal opportunity employer. We embrace and celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.

Prior to commencing employment, you’ll need:

A valid Employee Working With Children Check
A satisfactory National Police Check
Verification of unrestricted work rights in Australia (e.g. citizenship, passport or birth certificate)
