About XBOW
XBOW is building the future of offensive security. Our AI-powered platform autonomously discovers, validates, and exploits vulnerabilities, helping organizations find and fix security weaknesses before attackers can take advantage of them.
We’re a team of builders, researchers, and security experts tackling complex problems at the intersection of AI and cybersecurity. As we grow, we’re looking for a Senior Legal Counsel to help us build strong commercial relationships and bring our technology to more organizations worldwide.
Your Role: Senior Legal Counsel-Commercial
You’ll own commercial legal work across XBOW, helping teams structure agreements, close deals, and make informed decisions as the business scales. Working closely with Sales, Finance, Product, Engineering, and Security, you’ll turn complex legal questions into clear, practical advice.
This is a hands-on role for a commercially minded lawyer who brings 7+ years of commercial legal experience, including in-house experience in technology, experience working in a startup, and direct experience advising on AI products or services. You should be comfortable leading negotiations independently, navigating uncertainty, and building processes that help a growing business move quickly.
Responsibilities
•
Lead commercial negotiations. Draft, review, and negotiate enterprise customer agreements, SaaS and software licences, proof-of-concept agreements, partnership and reseller arrangements, procurement contracts, and data processing agreements.
•
Partner with the business. Work closely with Sales and Finance on deal structure, negotiation strategy, and escalations, finding practical solutions that support revenue growth and manage risk.
•
Advise on AI-related commercial issues. Address data use, model training restrictions, intellectual property ownership, confidentiality, warranties, liability, and third-party AI provider terms.
•
Support product development and launches. Help Product, Engineering, and Security teams assess legal considerations for new capabilities and translate them into appropriate customer terms and commitments.
•
Address the specifics of offensive security. Help define contractual testing permissions, scope, acceptable use, and the handling of vulnerability findings and sensitive customer information.
•
Build processes that scale. Develop templates, negotiation playbooks, approval workflows, and guidance that improve contract turnaround and consistency.
•
Make legal advice accessible. Deliver practical training and help colleagues understand when they can move independently and when to involve Legal.
•
Support broader legal priorities. Identify emerging issues, coordinate specialist external advice where needed, and contribute to projects as the business evolves.
