FOSSA

We founded FOSSA in 2015 to build a software supply chain risk management platform. We help companies generate, analyze, and use Software Bill of Materials (SBOMs) in various formats to meet compliance standards and improve software transparency.

Our platform also offers Software Composition Analysis (SCA) tools. These include automated open source license compliance management and solutions for prioritizing vulnerabilities. We work to apply security, license compliance, and quality standards to third-party code.

The FOSSA platform scans packages, containers, SBOMs, binaries, and code snippets. It provides guided steps to fix critical vulnerabilities, license problems, and End-of-Life (EoL) components. We also use automated policy enforcement to prevent future issues.

In 2024, we acquired StackShare. We also introduced fossabot, an AI agent designed to help with strategic dependency updates. Our software has been downloaded almost two million times and has performed nearly 100 million open source software scans.

Our mission at FOSSA is to ensure that teams don’t have to choose between speed, compliance, and security when working with software. We want open source software to be widely used, secure, and valuable for everyone.

We operate on core principles of transparency, accountability, and passion. Our values emphasize being open, inclusive, and transparent. We foster a low-ego, team-first environment and build strong relationships.

We believe in moving fast and meaning it, which means taking initiative and executing quickly with clear purpose. We are also committed to exploration, constantly innovating our products and processes, embracing new ideas, and looking for opportunities to grow.

We are a fast-paced, distributed, and remote-friendly company with 51-200 employees. Our culture encourages quick learning, experimentation, and taking ownership of important work.

We maintain a low-ego, team-first environment and build strong relationships based on integrity and accountability. We put our people first, focusing on their happiness, well-being, and comfort, and we celebrate our team members’ milestones.

We offer comprehensive healthcare, dental, and vision coverage, covering up to 100% of employee premiums and 75% for dependents. We also provide 12 weeks of paid parental leave.

Our flexible benefits include a Flexible Spending Account (FSA), Health Savings Account (HSA), and Dependent Care options. We believe in work-life balance, offering unlimited PTO, dedicated mental health days, and paid holidays.

For retirement planning, we provide a 401K plan through Empower401k. Employees also have access to services like One Medical, Talkspace, Teladoc, and Health Advocate.

We provide competitive salary and equity packages, along with opportunities for professional growth and career development. Remote work options are available.
