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 Door Dash, 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.

AI Engineering at Brex is redefining how businesses run their finances by building intelligent, autonomous systems directly into the Brex platform. Our teams develop AI agents that don’t just surface insights—they take action, optimizing spend, managing workflows, and making real-time decisions on behalf of our customers. By deeply integrating proprietary financial data with product and platform infrastructure, we’re turning complex financial operations into simple, automated experiences and setting a new standard for how modern finance works.

You’ll own Brex’s simulation and validation platform for AI-powered products. Your mandate is simple and unforgiving: ensure that every AI surface at Brex is continuously scrutinized under extreme, realistic conditions — and that teams can ship with confidence because of it.

You’ll build a system that uses synthetic data and scenario generation as a recursive self-improvement loop. Product teams will rely on it to catch regressions before customers do, to validate new capabilities safely, and to evolve prompts and agent behavior continuously. This platform will run against isolated, production-like environments and mirror production closely enough to matter.

This is not a research role. It’s about exercising real products, breaking them creatively, and forcing the organization to get better.

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

• Evolve and scale a simulation and validation platform to continuously stress-test Brex’s AI products using large-scale synthetic data.
• Develop evaluation mechanisms to detect regressions, edge cases, and failure modes in non-deterministic systems prior to customer impact.
• Run continuous testing in isolated, production-like environments and set quality gates, including authority to block launches when standards are not met.
• Partner closely with product engineering teams to improve system testability, isolation, and overall robustness.
• Define and uphold company-wide standards for AI feature quality, using simulation-driven insights to guide prompt and system evolution, while driving the technical bar for a small, high-impact team.

• Experience building and owning complex software systems where correctness, reliability, and failure modes are critical.
• Experience designing test, simulation, or…
