Why Box needs You

We're looking for a Senior Staff Software Engineer to join our Core Experience organization, supporting both backend and frontend engineering across our Warsaw and Redwood City sites. This is a high-impact, hands-on senior individual contributor role for someone who wants to design complex systems and see them through to production in a customer-facing domain.

You will help shape the technical direction of a large-scale, customer-facing platform - breaking out of our monolith, modernizing our backend and frontend architectures, and leading the organization toward strong continuous integration and DevOps practices. You will also champion AI adoption across the organization - enabling teams to use AI in their day-to-day engineering operations and building agents that accelerate the software development lifecycle (SDLC). You will ensure that systems are not only well-designed, but built, shipped, and operating reliably at scale.

What You’ll do

  • Build Critical Systems Own the architecture of key backend and frontend systems within Core Experiences. Lead the implementation of high-impact components end-to-end. Ensure systems are scalable, reliable, and observable from day one.
  • Drive Execution at Scale Partner with engineering teams across Warsaw and Redwood City to turn architecture into working systems. Lead delivery of large, cross-team initiatives with measurable business impact. Balance speed, quality, and long-term maintainability in real-world tradeoffs.
  • Set Technical Direction Establish patterns, frameworks, and standards that enable teams to move faster. Translate business priorities into clear technical roadmaps. Identify risks early and guide teams toward pragmatic solutions.
  • Enable AI in Engineering Enable teams across Core Experiences to apply AI in their day-to-day engineering operations — coding, code review, testing, debugging, documentation, and incident response. Design and build agents that support the full software development lifecycle (SDLC), from design and implementation through code review, testing, deployment, and operations. Establish best practices, guardrails, and reusable patterns for safe and effective AI usage in engineering workflows. Evaluate and integrate AI tooling (e.g., Cursor, Claude Code, internal Box AI capabilities) into the team's standard development workflow. Measure and continuously improve developer productivity and code quality through AI-driven workflows.
  • Influence & Mentor Collaborate across geographies and functions to align on architecture and execution. Mentor senior and staff engineers in system design, implementation, and effective use of AI in engineering. Contribute to a culture of strong ownership, quality, and continuous improvement.
  • Ship Code Be hands-on in prototyping and contributing production-grade code across the stack.

What You'll tackle in the first 6-12 months

  • Lead the effort to break our backend and frontend out of the monolith into modern, modular, and maintainable architectures.
  • Drive the organization's adoption of continuous integration and DevOps best practices, raising the bar for build, test, and deployment workflows.
  • Roll out AI-assisted engineering practices across Core Experiences — enabling teams to use AI in their day-to-day work and embedding it into coding, review, and operational workflows.
  • Design and ship agents that support the SDLC (e.g., code generation, automated review, test authoring, release readiness, on-call assistance) and demonstrate measurable productivity gains.
  • Define how we build products going forward — including tooling, workflows, and architectural patterns shared across Warsaw and Redwood City.
  • Set up frameworks for effective cross-site, cross-functional collaboration between backend and frontend engineers.
  • Balance rapid delivery with long-term technical investments to ensure Core Experiences scales with enterprise-grade performance, security, and maintainability.

Who You Are

  • 12+ years of professional software engineering experience across backend and frontend.
  • 5+ years leading complex, cross-team technical initiatives.
  • Ability to operate at both high-level architecture and low-level execution.
  • Proven track record of designing and shipping distributed systems at scale.
  • Hands-on experience breaking monoliths into service-oriented or modular architectures.
  • Strong experience driving continuous integration, CD, and DevOps practices across engineering organizations.
  • Hands-on experience using AI coding tools (e.g., Cursor, Claude Code) and integrating them into team workflows; experience designing or building LLM-powered agents for engineering use cases is a strong plus.
  • Familiarity with modern AI/agent frameworks, prompt engineering, evaluation, and safe deployment of AI in production engineering workflows.
  • Experience aligning cross-functional and cross-site stakeholders around architecture decisions.
  • Pragmatic decision-making: you balance ideal design with real-world constraints.
  • Passionate about mentoring and building a strong engineering culture.
  • BS/MS/PhD in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent experience.
  • Comfortable working in a hybrid, globally distributed environment; able to travel to the U.S. at least twice a year for team off-sites.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
