WHY BOX NEEDS YOU  AI is transforming how enterprises work, and Box is building an enterprise-grade Agents Platform at the core of the Box Content Cloud. Our platform, built on LangGraph, enables teams across Box and our customers to design, deploy, and operate AI agents that handle real-world enterprise workflows—from content understanding and generation to intelligent metadata, automation, and complex, multi-step orchestrations. As a founding Software Engineer on the Core Agents team, you will build the core platform that makes agent development secure, reliable, and scalable. You’ll own systems that define agent frameworks and tooling, orchestrate multi-agent workflows, integrate with multiple LLMs and enterprise systems, and enforce tenant isolation, data governance, and least-privilege access. You’ll deliver low-latency, high-throughput execution with robust observability, guardrails, and safe execution environments, ensuring agents perform predictably in production. Your work will empower product teams at Box and enterprise customers to build, customize, and operate agents for critical use cases—answering complex questions, automating content-centric processes, and coordinating actions across business systems. You’ll help establish patterns, SDKs, and best practices on top of LangGraph so developers can ship agents quickly and safely, all on a platform engineered for reliability and scale. WHAT YOU'LL DO  Build core components of the Agents Platform that power agentic use cases like Deep Search and Deep Research. Design and implement agent and tool repositories, along with observability and CI/CD pipelines, to streamline agent development and deployment. Develop and evolve a multi-tenant control plane that enforces isolation, fair resource allocation, and per-tenant SLAs across all agent workloads.
