Yes, your W-2 should have Box 16 filed out as these are wages from the State where your employer's business is located. You would need to file a State of California, non-resident return if you have a filing requirement or in order to get a refund of your taxes that you paid to the State of California.
Per the State of California generally, you must file an income tax return if you’re a resident, part-year resident, or nonresident and:
- Are required to file a federal return
- Receive income from a source in California
- Have income above a certain amount
