About The Position

Box's Network as a Service (NaaS) team owns every network interaction at Box — from the edge of our platform to the deepest layers of our internal infrastructure.

As a Senior Software Engineer on the NaaS team, you will drive the architecture, development, and rollout of critical networking solutions end-to-end. You'll collaborate with experienced engineers from leading technology companies, mentor teammates, and take full ownership of problems from ideation through impact measurement. This is a rare opportunity to shape both internal platform infrastructure and customer-facing products on the same team — with the scope and ownership to make a measurable difference.
