Lyndsey Bauers

Senior Director - Core Product

Passion Behind the Product

Cultivating Curiosity and Customer-first Focus

Since joining Dropbox in 2017, Lyndsey Bauers has transitioned between various product management roles before stepping into her current position as interim head of core product, all while embracing complex challenges and receiving ample support from mentors along the way. Curiosity is the lifeblood of Dropbox’s product initiatives. This desire to seek the unknown, coupled with a staunch customer-first focus, informs how Bauers guides her team to accomplish its goals for the year. Bauers is eager to help them shape product decisions in a way that will impact both the company as a whole and those who leverage its products every single day.

It’s really us working as units, where the thing that we’re all prioritizing and incentivized on is how we’re delivering value to the customer.

Sheila Wakida

Senior Director of Software Engineering

BUILDING CULTURE

Creating Impact From Opportunity

When Sheila Wakida first joined Dropbox in 2018, she knew joining the company would offer a supportive culture and a new set of opportunities for her career. Wakida also knew that her personal growth journey relied on her own ability to find passion, excitement and pride in her work. “I attribute my career growth to the unique ways in which Dropbox recognizes impact and hard work, and I’ve learned to focus on creating the most impact out of the opportunities in front of me,” she said. “Dropbox recognizes those who are brave enough to transform challenges into opportunities.”

I strive towards doing the best possible work at the highest level of quality that I can deliver, no matter how big or small the task.

Damian Łukasik

Engineering Manager

ASYNC BY DEFAULT

Supporting Solutions

As the engineering manager for Dropbox’s international growth team, Damian Łukasik spends his days helping a team of engineers build solutions to serve the company’s customers outside of the United States and helping to grow the Poland engineering hub. While his role encompasses an array of responsibilities, Łukasik’s mission is clear across functions: to build a strong foundation for Dropbox’s international team to scale. And he knows exactly what will make that possible: a collaborative internal culture and a customer-centric approach to make the right choices as the team moves forward.

I give my team space to own products and solutions and then support them in making those solutions successful.

Additional Perks + Benefits

In order to be successful in our Virtual First environment we needed to make changes that would allow employees to have more control over both where and how they work. Therefore, we embrace “non-linear workdays” with defined core collaboration hours that overlap across time zones. Beyond that, we encourage employees to design their own schedules to balance collaboration with needs for individual focus. We’ve also moved from “all day syncs” to an “async by default” culture, reserving meetings for discussion, debate, and decision-making, and handling all other work in our deep focus hours.
