Brief
Aaron Levie announced on 2026-04-30 that Box is starting to hire and retrain staff into internal “agent engineering” roles—an internal FDE-like function that wires internal systems (Box, Salesforce, Workday), builds secure, governed agents, and codifies workflows as skills. He expects these engineers to embed with business teams, spawn agent product managers, and prioritize automating processes rather than individual jobs.
Why it matters
On 2026-04-30 Aaron Levie (@levie) said Box is hiring and retraining for new internal “agent engineering” roles to deploy more powerful agents on critical business processes.
Key details
- He describes the role as an internal FDE: extremely technical, tasked with wiring internal systems (examples: Box, Salesforce, Workday), building secure, governed agents, and codifying workflows into reusable “skills.”
- Levie predicts these hires will be embedded with business teams, may create a new business-side ‘agent product manager’ role, and will focus on automating processes (not jobs) across multiple teams.
