XBOW is an autonomous offensive security platform that simulates real attacks to find and validate vulnerabilities in your applications. Get a demo today. Backed by Sequoia.
About the role
We’re looking for a Software Engineer - Platform / Core Infrastructure who’s passionate about building scalable systems and solving hard problems in ambiguous environments. In this role, you’ll design and implement the complex distributed infrastructure that powers our core AI engine and distributed analysis systems, enabling XBOW to run seamlessly across multiple cloud providers (AWS, Azure, OCI etc.) and contexts (SaaS, on prem).
What they're looking for
- Strong experience building and operating scalable, distributed systems on cloud infrastructure such as AWS or similar
- Extensive experience with Containerisation and Orchestration technologies (e.g. Docker and Kubernetes)
- Comfortable working with infrastructure as code (e.g., Terraform, CDK) and see infra as part of the engineering system—not something separate from it
- Experience with event-driven architectures, message queues, or async workflows (for example, using Kafka)
- A track record of performance tuning across cloud services, databases, and compute layers
- Eager to learn new tools, languages, and technologies as needed
More about this role
Build the future of offensive security with XBOW. Attackers are already using AI to move faster than defenders can react—we’re creating the platform that puts security ahead in the arms race. Our AI-powered system autonomously discovers, validates, and even exploits vulnerabilities, giving organizations proof-backed results in hours instead of weeks.
Founded by Oege de Moor, creator of GitHub Copilot, and backed by Sequoia, Altimeter, and other leading investors, XBOW is applying cutting-edge AI to one of the world’s most urgent problems. In just over a year, our AI, built by a world-class AI team and legendary security researchers — has uncovered thousands of real-world zero-days across the software billions rely on, and became the first autonomous system to reach number 1 on HackerOne.
We’re a team of builders, hackers, and researchers who thrive on solving problems others think are impossible. If you want to push the boundaries of AI, reshape how security is done, and join the group defining this new era of defense — we’d love to talk.
