WHY BOX NEEDS YOU? 

The SRE (Reliability Platform) team at Box builds internal tools and platforms that empower engineering teams to develop reliable, observable, and production-ready services. Our mission is to make reliability scalable, not just through operational excellence, but by providing software solutions that enforce best practices and eliminate manual toil.

We focus on building tools like automated diagnostics, reliability scanners, and changelog systems that proactively surface risks, standardize key workflows, and enable high-quality service delivery across Box. Our work combines backend development with cloud-native infrastructure and developer tooling, with strong emphasis on Go, Python, Kubernetes, and modern CI/CD. We work closely with engineering teams across the company, making reliability an integrated part of the development process, not an afterthought.

WHAT YOU'LL DO? 

• Build and maintain reliability-focused tools in Go and Python
• Contribute to core systems like BoxDiag, Reliability Scanner, and ChangeLog
• Collaborate with Reliability & Engineering teams in EMEA and the US
• Continuously improve the developer experience by automating diagnostics, enforcing best practices, and increasing system visibility
• Operate within a cloud-native stack (Kubernetes, GCP, Istio) using GitOps and CI/CD principles
• Participate in our on-call rotation, available at all times while on-call to help respond to and triage any issues that arise.

WHO YOU ARE:

• 3+ years of programming experience in higher-level languages (e.g. Go, Python, Java, Scala), 
• Experience building backend systems and internal tooling
• Solid understanding of cloud-native environments (Kubernetes, microservices, containerized workloads) would be a strong asset
• Familiarity with infrastructure tools such as Terraform, ArgoCD, Jenkins, and Istio (developer-level fluency is enough)
• Hands-on experience with Google Cloud Platform (GCP) — or another major cloud provider such as AWS or Azure
• Ability to work autonomously and switch context across different tools as needed

Box lives its values, with community and in-person collaboration being a core part of our culture. Boxers are expected to work from their assigned office a minimum of 2 days per week, with a focus on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Your Recruiter will share more about how we work and company culture during the hiring process.
