About this role

WHAT IS BOX

Box (NYSE:BOX) is the leader in Intelligent Content Management. Our platform enables organizations to fuel collaboration, manage the entire content lifecycle, secure critical content, and transform business workflows with enterprise AI. We help companies thrive in the new AI-first era of business. Founded in 2005, Box simplifies work for leading global organizations, including JLL, Morgan Stanley, and Nationwide. Box is headquartered in Redwood City, CA, with offices across the United States, Europe, and Asia.

By joining Box, you will have the unique opportunity to continue driving our platform forward. Content powers how we work. It’s the billions of files and information flowing across teams, departments, and key business processes every single day: contracts, invoices, employee records, financials, product specs, marketing assets, and more. Our mission is to bring intelligence to the world of content management and empower our customers to completely transform workflows across their organizations. With the combination of AI and enterprise content, the opportunity has never been greater to transform how the world works together and at Box you will be on the front lines of this massive shift.

WHY BOX NEEDS YOU

Box is building an editorial operation that earns its audience — content people seek out, share, and cite.

We're looking for a writer and editor to lead that work. You'll write and edit at a standard that raises everyone around you, build the original research that gives Box something to say that nobody else can, and shape what we publish based on what actually lands.

This is a player-coach role. Most of your time is spent creating, and you direct a small team of writers and editors.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

• Writing and editing

•

• Write fast-turn analysis when the conversation demands it — inside 48 hours of a model release or a significant market moment, without needing a briefing to understand what shipped.

• Write two to three deeper pieces a month, grounded in our research, our data, or your own reporting.

• Interview technical and executive subjects and come away with the real story.

• Direct a brand editor and a contract writer-editor: allocation, deadlines, coaching, quality.

• Raise the technical bar on other people's drafts.

• The research program

A standing capability that produces credible, citable numbers on a continuous basis, built on data and questions nobody else has access to.

•

• Design and run original research: define the agenda, build the methodology, manage vendors and timelines, interpret the results, and stand behind them publicly. Documented methods, defensible findings.

• Own State of AI as our annual flagship, plus targeted pulse studies on the questions the market is genuinely wrestling with.

• Turn every study into a full slate rather than a single PDF: the anchor report, individual findings as articles, data points built for social, executive talking points, sales material, and stories worth pitching.

• Maintain a repository of findings and quotable data the whole team draws from.

• Work with our video and design teams on data graphics, explainers and social-native data formats. You have a view on how data should be shown, and you hold that bar.

• What we publish next

•

• Bring evidence to editorial decisions: what's resonating, what isn't, and what that means for the next thing we commission.

• Track what the audiences we serve are asking and arguing about — through social listening, search and answer-engine visibility, sales conversations, and direct contact with the people we write for — and turn it into story ideas with a point of view.

• Plan the content that supports our campaigns: what each audience needs at each stage, what we already have, and what gets built first.

WHO YOU ARE

• You're demonstrably part of the AI conversation. Published writing, a public track record, or professional experience inside it. We'll ask your view on recent model releases and where enterprise AI is heading, and we'll care about the answer.

• You've worked somewhere technical credibility was non-negotiable — where what you published had to hold up with engineers and researchers, not only with buyers.

• You've built or substantially run a research program. Survey design, methodology, data interpretation, and turning research into content. Comfortable enough in data to interrogate a dataset yourself, and to know the difference between an interesting finding and a misleading one — including a view on how it should be visualized.

• You're a strong writer and a natural interviewer. You can have a real technical conversation with an engineer or a CTO and find the story in it.

• You have judgment about audiences. This job is finding the overlap between what a company has to say and what a specific audience actually wants to hear — repeatedly, on evidence.

• 5+ years in editorial, journalism, research, or content, with a portfolio on technology topics.

• Experience directing a small team: setting priorities, allocating work, holding a standard.

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 3 days per week. Your Recruiter will share more about how we work and company culture during the hiring process.

Head-over-heels about this role — but not sure you meet all the requirements? Apply anyway! Studies have shown that women and people of color are less likely to apply to jobs unless they meet every single qualification. At Box, we take a big-picture approach to hiring that fosters authenticity, diversity, and inclusion. If you're passionate about this opportunity, chances are, you shine pretty bright.

EQUAL OPPORTUNITY

We are an equal opportunity employer and value diversity at our company. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status
