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.

Design at Brex creates the experiences that make complex systems feel effortless through thoughtful, scalable design. This is a team where creativity meets high craft, and where designers grow by building for ambitious customers.

What you’ll do

• Collaborate with engineers to translate design into production, writing detailed specs, QA’ing builds, and speaking fluently in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
• Push creative boundaries with code, experimenting with interactive experiences using WebGL/Three.js, Canvas, GSAP, or p5.js.
• Demonstrate strong design taste and judgment, show work, drive decisions, and translate interactive ideas into business impact through excellent execution.

Where you’ll work

This role will be based in our San Francisco office. You must be willing to work in office at least 2 days per week on Wednesday and Thursday. Employees will be able to work remotely for up to 4 weeks per year.

Requirements

• Experience with modern interactive tools (Framer, Spline, WebGL/Three.js, GSAP, or similar).
• Familiarity with headless CMS workflows (Sanity or similar) to design within real content structures.
• Strong eye for typography, layout, motion, and visual hierarchy.
• Portfolio of shipped interactive work that demonstrates taste, technical fluency, and business impact.

• Understanding of accessibility standards for motion and interactivity.
• Track record of delivering award-winning or high-impact web experiences.
