Company profile
Brex provides corporate cards, spend management, bill pay, travel, and treasury tools for startups and larger companies. Interviews combine fintech systems design, risk modelling, ledger correctness, and product judgement around finance workflows that need both speed and strong controls.
Brex operates in the fintech space with a headcount around 1K, which usually puts hiring in a middle zone: repeatable enough to have defined stages, small enough that the team you would join runs most of the loop. For backend engineer, database engineer, developer relations engineer candidates that generally means a recruiter conversation, skill rounds led by future teammates, and a closing conversation with a senior leader. The role pages below break down the questions for each function.
Brex hires across several engineering and product functions, and the loop shifts with each one. Open a role for the reported questions, the round-by-round focus, and a salary band for that function.
