Contrast Security develops runtime application self-protection (RASP) and code security tools and employs roughly 225 people worldwide. Recent staffing data shows 31 new hires and 36 departures, resulting in a small net decline in overall headcount. The figures suggest that the company is balancing selective hiring with normal employee turnover while it continues to deliver its security platform to global customers.
Engineering is the largest organization at Contrast Security with 84 employees, accounting for more than one-third of total staff and reflecting the technical focus required to build its security products. Sales and Support follows with 66 team members who handle customer acquisition and ongoing assistance, while Marketing and Product collectively employ 29 people responsible for market positioning and feature planning. Corporate functions such as Finance & Administration (12), Information Technology (11), Business Management (10), Operations (5) and Consulting (2) round out the roster, indicating a lean structure outside of core product and go-to-market roles. A small “Other” category of 7 employees captures roles that do not fit neatly into the primary groups.
Contrast Security maintains a distributed workforce, with 157 employees classified under “Other” locations—largely remote or home-office setups—comprising the majority of staff. The largest physical hub is San Francisco with 17 employees, followed by Boston (9), Belfast (8), Baltimore (8) and Washington, DC (7). Smaller clusters are located in Austin (7), Philadelphia (6), Tel Aviv (5) and Chicago (2). This spread suggests the company leverages both U.S. tech centers and international talent pools while keeping a flexible, remote-friendly operating model.
