The division of trees into hardwood and softwood by a botanic measure is misleading. e.g. balsa is a hardwood!
This old style division is in fact based on the seed reproduction - flowering or coniferous.
A better descriptor is angiosperm or gymnosperm. Gymnosperm have 'naked' seeds - your conifers.
And directly to your question, as a flowering tree, box elder is an angiosperm - or hardwood in the obsolete naming.

The box elder tree is not named after the box elder bug. The trees in question (Acer negundo) receive their name from the similarity of their white wood to that of a boxwood and of their pinnately compound foliage to that of an elder.
