With the combination of AI and enterprise content, the opportunity has never been greater to transform how the world works together and at Box you will be on the front lines of this massive shift.

Why Box Needs You

As a Software Engineer on the Automate team, you will be at the heart of Box's workflow automation platform - a product that empowers millions of users to automate complex business processes without writing code. The Automate team is a growing organization of ~30 engineers across four specialized teams, responsible for building the intelligent automation engine, intuitive user interface, and seamless integrations that enable organizations to transform how they work.

In this role, you will design and develop full-stack solutions with a strong emphasis on frontend - you'll spend the majority of your time architecting and building intuitive, high-performance user interfaces in React/TypeScript, while collaborating closely on backend architecture and bringing solid knowledge of the distributed systems that power our automation engine. We expect you to be comfortable working across the full stack, with deep mastery of modern frontend development and strong foundational knowledge in backend systems. You'll work primarily with React/TypeScript alongside backend technologies (with Java experience being a strong plus) to build responsive, performant workflows and applications that seamlessly interact with systems handling millions of daily executions. You'll collaborate with product managers, designers, and fellow engineers to innovate on automation capabilities, improve user experience, and integrate with enterprise applications. Your work will directly impact how customers streamline their most critical business processes - from contract lifecycle management to invoice processing to employee onboarding.

What You'll Do

• Design and implement features for the Box Automate - leading with frontend architecture in React/TypeScript, while actively contributing to distributed systems and backend design discussions

• Architect and build rich, responsive, and intuitive user interfaces in React that enable users to seamlessly create, configure, and monitor complex automated workflows

• Collaborate on developing and integrating with backend services and distributed systems that power workflow automation

• Collaborate with cross-functional teams including product, design, and infrastructure to define requirements, propose technical solutions, and deliver features on schedule

• Review code, mentor junior engineers, and help shape our engineering practices

• Participate in our on-call rotation - when it's your week, you're expected to be reachable outside business hours, including evenings and weekends, to respond to production incidents
