About XBOW

XBOW is redefining the future of cybersecurity by building the world's first autonomous AI pentester. You will contribute to a platform that autonomously discovers, validates, and exploits vulnerabilities, transforming security from reactive to proactive. This means security teams can identify and fix issues in hours, not weeks, staying ahead of evolving cyber threats. XBOW's AI has already achieved top rankings, even uncovering real-world zero-days. This isn't just about automation; it's about empowering security teams with AI-driven superpowers to defend against increasingly sophisticated, AI-powered attacks.

How We Work

XBOW cultivates a working environment built on focus, trust, and autonomy. We embrace asynchronous work when it makes sense, ensuring you have the space to do your best work. While we operate remotely across the globe, we also value deep collaboration at critical moments, supporting travel for in-person teamwork. Our values emphasize owning outcomes, winning as one team, moving fast, and solving problems that truly matter. We also practice transparency and candor, fostering clarity and trust to learn and build better together.

Engineering at XBOW

At XBOW, engineers tackle the complex challenge of building scalable, distributed systems that power our core AI engine and analysis systems. You'll work with technologies like TypeScript, Kotlin, and Go to develop robust backend services and APIs. Our infrastructure is designed for multi-cloud deployment (AWS, Azure, OCI) and handles event-driven architectures with tools like Docker and Kubernetes. We treat infrastructure as a product, focusing on clean abstractions and optimizing cloud services for performance and reliability. You will design for resilience, implementing disaster recovery and business continuity strategies to ensure uptime in complex environments.
