Design Spotlight

Describe a typical day on your team.

"There are two types of days at Box. One is coordination: discussions with PMs/Eng/Design to coordinate the product, brainstorm, and sketch. While the other is a heads down kind of day. Doing more active design work–sketching out wireframes, planning out a user test. I try to separate the two days out so that I have longer periods of time to focus."

–Jared Comis, Staff Product Designer

How would you define the design team culture?

"Talented, dynamic, and always willing to offer support. Just last week, a designer on my team reached out for help. She had a lot of work on her plate and was feeling overwhelmed. It was nice to see that she was open to asking for support. Everyone in our domain offered to take a piece of the project–it was really sweet. It’s okay to ask for help; you don’t always have to do all the work alone."

–Ivy Li, Sr. Product Designer

How does Box support remote work?

"As of right now, I am working remotely from home. I like the flexibility that it brings. I am more comfortable and as a result more productive. I love not having to commute, and the ability to change my environment and work in a cafe if I want to. My team is also very responsive on Slack, which makes it easy to collaborate remotely."

–Holly Luo, Product Designer II

Our Values

You Do You

We are unified but not uniform, and celebrate our differences. Our collective creativity pushes us past our biases and allows us to see problems from multiple angles.

Why Tho?

We are curious and hungry to learn. Every moment is an opportunity to question, listen and add perspective. As we evaluate ourselves and our work, we seek continuous improvement and measured growth.

Go Deep

We respect and care for those we work with and design for. Our desire to share in the experience of others allows us to connect on a deeper level, fosters collaboration, and positions us to operate with candor and good intent.

Don't Need Space Suits

We're easily excited by a challenge. Our defining moments are when we live outside our comfort zone, lead by supporting our teams, and deliver beyond expectations.

Care Too Much

We are passionate perfectionists who believe every pixel has a purpose. This drive to do the right thing for our users and business results in solutions that precisely meets their needs.

Make It Fun

There’s always something to celebrate: wins of all sizes, shared quirks, and pizza! Our camaraderie empowers us to approach challenges with optimism and confidence - we work best when work is fun!
