Senior Product Designer, T&E

Brex • New York, NY

1d • $192,000 - $240,000 • Hybrid

About The Position

Brex is hiring a Senior Product Designer for its Travel & Expenses design team. The role leads ambiguous, cross-functional product work from problem definition through shipped execution, turning complex financial workflows into clear, intuitive experiences. The designer will own the direction of a core travel and expenses area, establish its vision and roadmap with Product and Engineering, and work with high ownership and low oversight to deliver measurable customer and business outcomes.

The team designs experiences for travel booking, expense management, reimbursements, and the policy and compliance tools that support them. It also develops AI agents to handle manual expense and compliance work, including the ways agents communicate their actions, request confirmation, and recover from errors. The designer will shape underlying product models and states, conduct research, collaborate across teams, contribute to design-system quality, mentor designers, and clearly communicate decisions to stakeholders.

The position is based in Brex’s San Francisco, Seattle, or New York City office. It follows a hybrid schedule requiring at least three coordinated office days per week (Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday), with up to four weeks per year of fully remote work. The expected salary range is $192,000–$240,000; starting base pay depends on location, skills, experience, market demands, and internal pay parity. Equity and other compensation may also be included depending on the position offered.

Requirements

• 6 or more years of product design experience, including a track record of shipping end-to-end features in fast-paced product teams.
• A strong portfolio of shipped product work, ideally involving complex workflows, systems, or customer-facing business software.
• Experience independently leading ambiguous product initiatives and turning loosely defined problems into clear, executable plans.
• Strong product thinking and the ability to connect design decisions to customer needs, business goals, and measurable outcomes.
• High craft across UX, interaction design, visual design, prototyping, and systems thinking.
• Experience partnering closely with Product, Engineering, Research, Data, and other cross-functional partners throughout product development.
• Ability to facilitate discussions, synthesize input, communicate tradeoffs, and build alignment across stakeholders.
• Comfort working in a fast-moving environment with evolving priorities and an emphasis on learning, iteration, and shipped impact.
• Clear communication, strong feedback habits, and a collaborative approach to improving personal and team work.

Nice To Haves

• Experience designing financial products, developer tools, enterprise software, or other complex B2B workflows.
• Experience using AI tools for prototyping, research synthesis, design exploration, or day-to-day workflow acceleration.
• Experience contributing to or evolving a design system at scale.
• Experience conducting or partnering on generative and evaluative research.
• Ability to translate complex product, technical, or business constraints into simple customer experiences.

Responsibilities

• Own design direction for a core area of travel and expenses and establish its vision and roadmap with Product and Engineering.
• Turn loosely defined problems into clear scope, milestones, and shippable increments, deciding what to build first and what to leave out.
• Define underlying product models, including states, transitions, and edge cases, and share them with dependent teams to ensure consistent behavior across surfaces.
• Plan, conduct, and synthesize research, using customer feedback and data to make and validate design decisions.
• Design AI-assisted experiences, including agent confirmations, explanations of actions, and ways for users to correct mistakes.
• Partner with Product and Engineering on scope, sequencing, and tradeoffs; raise risks early and stay involved through implementation.
• Work across teams on shared components, policy rules, and payment flows, resolve conflicts before engineering work, and represent design in cross-team planning.
• Raise design quality through critique, standards for content, color, and component states, and contributions to the design system.
• Mentor designers through feedback, pairing, and sharing approaches to ambiguous problems.
• Present work and rationale to leadership, partners, and customers, and document decisions for others to build on.

Benefits

• Hybrid work environment combining office collaboration with the flexibility of working from home.
• Up to four weeks per year of fully remote work.
• Equity and other forms of compensation may be included as part of the total compensation package, depending on the position offered.
