What you’ll do

As a Solutions Architect at Brex, you'll be part of the pre-sales team, helping prospective customers understand how our platform fits into their existing systems and processes. You’ll work closely with account executives, customer success, and product teams to provide the technical perspective during the sales cycle. Your job is to listen to customer needs, explain how Brex works, and guide conversations around integrations, APIs, security, and system compatibility.

You’ll act as a trusted technical advisor, helping enterprise customers evaluate Brex with confidence. You’ll play a key part in building trust, removing roadblocks, and setting customers up for long-term success.

Where you’ll work

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

Responsibilities

• You will support conversations around API capabilities, helping customers evaluate how they can connect Brex to their internal tools in a secure and scalable way. You’ll also advise on topics like Single Sign-On setup using providers such as Okta, Azure Active Directory, and Google Workspace.
• As part of the pre-sales team, you’ll answer technical questions related to security, compliance, and data management, often referencing Brex’s trust portal and documentation to give customers confidence in our platform.
• You’ll collaborate closely with account executives, customer success managers, product managers, and engineers to ensure customers have a clear and accurate understanding of what is possible with Brex. Your input will also help shape our product roadmap by sharing what customers need most.
• Some travel may be required, up to about 30%, for in-person customer meetings or internal team events.
