Why join us

Brex is the AI-powered spend platform. We help companies spend with confidence with integrated corporate cards, banking, and global payments, plus intuitive software for travel and expenses. Tens of thousands of companies from startups to enterprises — including DoorDash, Flexport, and Compass — use Brex to proactively control spend, reduce costs, and increase efficiency on a global scale.

Working at Brex allows you to push your limits, challenge the status quo, and collaborate with some of the brightest minds in the industry. We’re committed to building a diverse team and inclusive culture and believe your potential should only be limited by how big you can dream. We make this a reality by empowering you with the tools, resources, and support you need to grow your career.

Engineering

Engineering at Brex is about building systems that scale with speed and intention. Our teams span Software, Data, Security, and IT, and operate with high autonomy and deep collaboration. We tackle hard technical problems, own our outcomes, and push for excellence at every level — from architecture to deployment. It’s an environment where engineering is a craft, and builders become leaders.

What you’ll do

You will lead the engineering team responsible for Brex’s GTM Engineering surfaces, enabling our growth engine across Marketing, Sales, and self-serve funnels. This role focuses on building and optimizing our marketing website (Brex.com), GTM applications, top-of-funnel experiences, and AI-powered systems that increase efficiency, reduce CAC, and improve sales and marketing effectiveness.

Where you’ll work

This role will be based in our Seattle office. We are a hybrid environment that combines the energy and connections of being in the office with the benefits and flexibility of working from home. We currently require a minimum of two coordinated days in the office per week, Wednesday and Thursday. Starting February 2, 2026, we will require three days per week in office - Monday, Wednesday and Thursday. As a perk, we also have up to four weeks per year of fully remote work!

Responsibilities

• Lead and mentor a high-performing team of product engineers, fostering their career development through coaching, feedback, and hands-on guidance.
• Drive the architectural vision, technical roadmap, and project execution for Brex.com, GTM applications, and top-of-funnel growth systems, ensuring scalability, performance, and security.
• Champion and integrate AI-native solutions within our Marketing, Sales, and Operations workflows to drive efficiency and unlock new capabilities.
• Operate at all levels, guiding your team through complex technical challenges while staying close to the code and contributing to design.
• Partner with stakeholders across Marketing, Sales, and Growth, acting as a strategic advisor to translate business needs into a prioritized engineering backlog while being jointly accountable to business metrics such as CAC, payback, and conversion rates.
• Align ad-hoc requests to broader business strategy, ensuring the team is focused on the most impactful work and confidently declining projects that are not strategically aligned.
• Own the operational excellence of your team, managing sprint capacity, removing blockers, and ensuring high-velocity, high-quality delivery.
• Establish and enforce engineering best practices for GTM applications and growth surfaces, including CI/CD, source control, code quality, observability, and system governance.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.
• 6+ years of software engineering experience with strong technical depth
• 3+ years of experience managing or leading engineers in a high-growth environment.
• Experience architecting and building growth surfaces or marketing engineering systems.
• Strong frontend, data, and backend technical fundamentals, with experience in modern frameworks.
• Experience with GTM systems, marketing automation tools, experimentation platforms, or analytics instrumentation.
• Excellent interpersonal and relationship-building skills with the ability to manage and communicate effectively with XFN partners in Sales and Marketing at all levels.
• A growth-hacking, AI-native mindset with a proven ability to design and execute GTM strategies that drive meaningful revenue impact.

Bonus points

• Experience managing remote or distributed engineering teams.
• Experience with B2B growth.
• You have started your own technology venture or were a foundational engineering member of an early-stage start up. We value entrepreneurial spirit & scrappiness!
