About the role

We're looking for a Developer Relations Engineer to help drive developer awareness and engagement — driving developer adoption that converts to pipeline. You'll be the face of Box in developer communities, on conference stages, and across content channels. You won't just create content; you'll measure what drives demos and optimize relentlessly. Content-driven AI workflows is an emerging category without an established playbook — you'll help define how developers discover and talk about it. You'll have one strategic objective, drive developer awareness. When developers think about content in their AI workflows, they should think about Box.

Responsibilities

  • Drive content production: Own the pipeline from ideation to publication (technical blog posts, webinars, demo videos, case studies). Work with engineering for technical depth; you own the output.
  • Own events and speaking: Attend and deliver talks at developer and AI engineering conferences. Own the event strategy, build relationships with organizers, and partner with GTM on lead capture and follow-up.
  • Connect to the ecosystem: Build extensions and plugins for popular AI libraries and frameworks and measure the impact.
  • Embed in developer communities: Show up where AI engineers talk shop. Surface insights to Product and GTM weekly; turn community presence into inbound interest.
  • Own onboarding content: Ship improvements based on friction you discover. Docs are a conversion lever, you're accountable for their quality.
