Engineering at Brex

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.

As a Senior Software Engineer on our Task Workflows Platform team, you will build and scale the foundational backend systems that power core experiences across Brex. You will work across our extensive suite of platforms, including our multi-channel notifications engine, collaborative commenting system, and dynamic workflow rule builder. You will also play a pivotal role in evolving our task orchestration infrastructure, helping us transition from a centralized, generic experience into highly tailored, purpose-built solutions for specific product domains.

You will tackle complex distributed systems challenges, from designing scalable APIs and rule-evaluation engines for custom automations to modeling the data and orchestration logic behind our domain-specific task experiences. Because teams across Brex build on these platforms, extensibility and ease of adoption matter as much as scale and reliability. Beyond core platform work, you will be part of a team that directly shapes broader product experiences, including leveraging AI to streamline user workflows. As Brex builds more AI-native products, you will also have the opportunity to help build the shared infrastructure that enables AI product development across the company.

Responsibilities

This role will be based in Vancouver 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 three coordinated days in the office per week on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday. As a perk, we also have up to four weeks per year of fully remote work!

Please be aware, job-seekers may be at risk of targeting by malicious actors looking for personal data. Brex recruiters will only reach out via LinkedIn or email with a brex.com brex.com/ domain. Any outreach claiming to be from Brex via other sources should be ignored.

The expected salary range for this role is $192,000 - $240,000 CAD. However, the starting base pay will depend on a number of factors, including the candidate’s location, skills, experience, market demands, and internal pay parity.
