Hello,

Xen is mostly written in C language, but there are other languages being used 
aswell.. obviously lowlevel assembly language for some architecture specific 
lowlevel stuff, and some highler level languages (OCaml) for certain components 
(oxenstored). Also various scripting languages are used, perl, python, etc. 

Also you need to know all the usual Linux/Unix commandline (development) tools.
