BE THE FOUNDER OF YOUR CAREER.
NOT JUST A JOB. A LAUNCHPAD
Over 100 Brex alumni have gone on to launch their own companies. This is 4x more than the industry average, and it’s not an accident.
This collective ambition was by design; they were hired for it, stretched by it, molded by the intensity and quality of the work. Brex doesn’t just attract future leaders; it shapes them.
We’re here to build faster, bolder, and better than what came before. Fueled by high standards, we hire people who think like owners, move with urgency, and hold themselves to a bar higher than anyone else could set for them. And when you’re solving one of the hardest problems in business, breaking the tradeoff between speed and control, that mindset compounds. This isn't just a job; it's a launchpad for your ambitions.
BREX DOESN'T JUST ATTRACT FUTURE LEADERS; IT SHAPES THEM.
The principles that shape Brex
FOUNDERS AREN'T BORN. THEY'RE BUILT BY DOING HARD THINGS.
Brex isn't a place to coast. We hire people who thrive in the challenging moments, who embrace intensity, and care deeply about their work. This is a place where ambition is amplified, and those with high agency excel. It’s not for everyone. That’s the point.
WORKING HERE SHOULD FEEL HARD, NOT DIFFICULT.
Hard means solving real problems, making real impact, and pushing yourself further than anyone else could. Sometimes that looks like shipping in crisis mode, like working through the night during the SVB collapse. Difficult is slow, political, and padded with unnecessary hurdles — that’s not Brex. The pace is intense. The expectations are high. But you’ll never climb alone. We do hard things together.
You’ll never climb alone. We do hard things together.
THE BEST LEADERS OPERATE AT ALL LEVELS.
Our CTO still codes. Our CRO still sells. At Brex, the people closest to the work are the ones driving it because we believe great leadership comes from doing, not just directing. Managers don’t just manage people. They manage the work. They hire exceptional talent, set a high bar, and clear the path to let others shine. Growth here is in your hands. We’ve seen team members step into new roles and earn big promotions. We invest in internal talent because we believe the future founders are already here. And at Brex, you’ll learn how to build by doing it alongside the best.
WE RUN THE COMPANY CLOSE TO THE METAL.
You won’t just see your slice of the work, you’ll understand how the whole business runs. Strategy, pivots, pressure, decision-making — it’s all out in the open. You’ll get visibility into company-wide decisions, financials, and the why behind them. That transparency builds context, sharpens judgment, and helps you think like a leader and a founder. You’ll watch people like you go on to start companies and take on career-defining leadership roles, and you’ll develop the confidence to do it too.
JOIN THE FOUNDER SCHOOL
We’ve built a launchpad, not a landing pad. At Brex, founder mentality is in our DNA. We hire people who dream big. People with autonomy, grit, and the ambition to build. In doing so, we’ve created an environment that doesn’t just develop great employees, it produces future founders and leaders. One in three founders in the U.S. uses Brex. That’s not just who we serve — it’s who we are. “Be the Founder of Your Career” isn’t just a tagline. It’s the culture. 100+ alumni now lead teams, orgs, and outcomes — carrying the mindset they built here into what they lead next. We hire for high agency, give people real ownership, and create an environment where the most driven people push themselves further than anyone else ever could.
WE HIRE PEOPLE WITH AUTONOMY, GRIT AND THE AMBITION TO BUILD.
