Build and maintain the core accounting platform, including reusable records, rules, mappings, and versioned APIs that Brex product teams and external partners extend without one-off solutions.
Own ERP connectivity end-to-end, building and scaling reliable integrations with NetSuite, QuickBooks, Xero, SAP, and Oracle, including sync, error recovery, and rate-limit handling.
Implement customer-facing close experiences for reviewing, configuring, reconciling, and exporting financial activity in our React/TypeScript dashboard.
Collaborate with Product, Design, Data Science, and Implementation teams to translate complex accounting and ERP concepts into experiences that feel simple for finance teams.
Design distributed systems where correctness is non-negotiable, making idempotency, reconciliation, traceability, and proactive issue detection first-class parts of the architecture.
Own problems end-to-end, from user experience and API design to data models, scalability, and ongoing observability.
Work with ML models in production, integrating predicted GL coding and mappings into accounting workflows while preserving explainability and human review.
Participate in on-call rotation and maintain high operational standards for mission-critical systems.
Requirements
5+ years of full-time software engineering experience with a focus on backend development.
2+ years of experience building systems in a domain where correctness and reliability were core requirements, such as fintech, payments, financial systems, or another regulated industry (e.g. healthcare, legal).
Strong curiosity for digging deep into the technical problems, and a track record of owning significant technical scope and delivering high quality solutions.
Experience designing APIs, data models, and platform capabilities that serve many different customer workflows and configurations.
Proficiency in backend technologies (e.g., Kotlin, Java, TypeScript) and comfort with our stack (Kotlin and Micronaut).
