Our strategy starts with our mission: how do we build the right set of products that can help our customers work in a more enlightened way? If the first big problem Dropbox solved was getting your files in the cloud, the new problem we’re solving is helping you organize your life.

As we’re evolving the core business from syncing and sharing files, we are looking for Software Engineers to come build the next generation of new products for collaboration and distributed work. Product Engineers thrive working across technologies and codebases, but are also involved in various product development cycle stages. Along the way they help representing users needs through close partnership with product, design, and user research.

In this role you will deliver best-in-breed software by building robust systems that power optimized user experiences on marquee projects like Dropbox Paper, Transfer, or Family. As a Product Engineer, you will use data-driven approaches to conduct experiments or iterate features, while ensuring that the software we write will last and scale.

Our Engineering Career Framework is viewable by anyone outside the company and describes what’s expected for our engineers at each of our career levels. Check out our blog post on this topic and more here.

• You will design and build software capable of reaching millions of daily users
• You will partner with product managers, designers and analysts to deeply understand the needs of our users and build a product that serves those needs
• You will develop and execute against both short and long-term roadmaps, making effective tradeoffs between business impact, user experience, and a high-quality technical foundation
• You will improve the team and company – you will be an active participant in our culture (mentorship, interviewing, and new initiatives)
• You will support your fellow engineers through feedback, code reviews, and advancement of internal tools and processes

Many teams at Dropbox run Services with on-call rotations, which entails being available for calls during both core and non-core business hours. If a team has an on-call rotation, all engineers on the team are expected to participate in the rotation as part of their employment. Applicants are encouraged to ask for more details of the rotations to which the applicant is applying.

• BS degree in Computer Science or related technical field involving coding (e.g., physics or mathematics), or equivalent technical experience
• 5+ years of software engineering and/or work related industry experience
• Previous success developing and shipping a large-scale web application with a user-empathetic mindset
• Skilled at building user-facing software and supporting systems and libraries for the web and/or desktop
• You can handle full-stack projects and are able to build a minimum working product quickly
