Box (NYSE:BOX) is the leader in Intelligent Content Management. Our platform enables organizations to fuel collaboration, manage the entire content lifecycle, secure critical content, and transform business workflows with enterprise AI. We help companies thrive in the new AI-first era of business. Founded in 2005, Box simplifies work for leading global organizations, including JLL, Morgan Stanley, and Nationwide. Box is headquartered in Redwood City, CA, with offices across the United States, Europe, and Asia.
By joining Box, you will have the unique opportunity to continue driving our platform forward. Content powers how we work. It's the billions of files and information flowing across teams, departments, and key business processes every single day: contracts, invoices, employee records, financials, product specs, marketing assets, and more. Our mission is to bring intelligence to the world of content management and empower our customers to completely transform workflows across their organizations. 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.
As a Software Engineer III (Backend) 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 that enables organizations to transform how they work.
Box Automate is a keystone in Box's overall AI strategy — one of the primary entry points for AI into Box. The platform drives recurring usage, supports upsell to higher tiers, and increases AI token consumption. Launched recently, Automate is scaling rapidly across both external enterprise customers and internal Box use cases (including Shield, Governance, and Archive).
In this role, you will design and develop sophisticated backend systems at the core of the Box Automate workflow engine. You'll work primarily in Java to build and optimize the engine that represents, executes, and manages complex workflows modeled as graphs. You'll tackle algorithmically rich challenges — from graph traversal and optimization to the design of a meta-language that enables dynamic, variable-driven workflow composition. Your work will directly impact how thousands of enterprises automate their most critical business processes.
We are an AI-first company. This means you approach your work with a growth mindset and find ways to leverage AI to help make faster, smarter decisions that will 10X your impact at Box.
