About XBOW

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 achieved the #1 ranking on HackerOne’s global leaderboard.

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.

Your Role: IT Operations Specialist

We're looking for a motivated, hands-on IT Operations Specialist to help support our internal systems, devices, and team. You'll assist with onboarding, manage day-to-day IT operations, and help keep our environment secure and running smoothly. This is a great opportunity to grow your skills across IT, security, and infrastructure in a fast-moving startup environment.

You’ll work closely with our IT and Security Engineers across the UK, EU, and USA - joining as the first APAC hire in a growing global team. While you’ll have strong support around you, you should be comfortable taking initiative, working independently, and learning quickly.

• Assist with identity and access management — provisioning/deprovisioning accounts, managing permissions

• Help maintain SaaS tools such as Google Workspace, Slack, GitHub, and 1Password

• Support onboarding and offboarding processes

• Write basic scripts (Python/Bash) to assist with repetitive IT tasks

• Help enforce technical security policies e.g. patching, disk encryption, MFA

• Comfortable working in a Mac-first, remote environment

• Basic familiarity with MDM tools (Mosyle, Jamf, or similar)

• Some exposure to identity tools like Okta or Google Workspace

• Eager to learn scripting and automation — even if you're still developing those skills

• Security-conscious and detail-oriented

• Strong communicator who can support both technical and non-technical teammates

• Self-starter who can manage tasks independently in a remote-first environment

Bonus Points

• Any exposure to AWS or cloud environments

• Familiarity with compliance frameworks (SOC 2)

• Experience at a startup or fast-growing company

What We Offer

• Compensation & Equity: Competitive salary and stock options

• Remote-First: Work from anywhere, with regular in-person collaboration opportunities

What Else You Should Know

• Location: APAC Remote (AUS / NZ preferred)

• Contract: Full-time
