WHAT IS BOX?

By joining Box, you will have the unique opportunity to continue driving our platform forward. Content powers how we work.

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. Founded in 2005, Box is headquartered in Redwood City, CA, and we have offices across the United States, Europe, and Asia.

WHY BOX NEEDS YOU

The Shuttle team is a small but mighty team that owns the full content migration stack at Box - from the best-in-class migration product experience we offer our customers, to the high-scale distributed infrastructure that lets us migrate over a petabyte every month from a broad swath of on-premise and cloud content repositories. We have a bold mission to dramatically expand the breadth and volume of content we're migrating through our system.

Our goal is to offer the highest performance content migration functionality in a unified application available to all Box customers and internal Box migration teams. All Box Business and Enterprise customers already have access to this powerful tool, but we have a long list of features to add while uplifting the architecture and improving our user experience. This is an opportunity to meaningfully enhance a hybrid React/Ember.js-based web application and REST APIs. This will entail adding new features, helping re-architect key internal services to move to a full React web app, and updating our automated testing.

• Investigate and fix frontend bugs.
• Build and maintain unit and functional tests.
• Collaborate with Product Management to help refine requirements and break down complex projects into meaningful, deliverable units.
• Improve the current code base and infrastructure.
• Model best practices in crafting systems and code with sound architectures, reliability, scalability, and maintainability.
• Communicate technical ideas and direction across the organization.
• Add and extend new REST APIs in the new or existing backend.
