Requirements

Track record of engineering leadership building and scaling customer-facing products, including hiring and growing teams.

A staff-engineer-level technical bar; able to operate at all levels and earn the technical respect of a strong engineering team.

Strong customer empathy and advocacy.

Demonstrated coaching and mentorship of engineers across levels.

Travel domain experience (e.g., online booking / travel management platforms such as Navan or similar).

Compensation & Benefits

The expected salary range for this role is $240,000 CAD - $300,000 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.

Responsibilities

We're building a new team within Brex's Travel group to own a defined part of our next-generation travel experience, and we're looking for the Engineering Manager to build and lead it.

The broader Travel group covers a lot of ground, and one of your first and most important tasks is to help shape this team's mandate within that bigger picture — what it owns, where its boundaries sit, and where it should focus to have the most impact.

You'll set the technical and product direction for the team, ship a competitive customer-facing product, and build the culture from day one.

Because the domain is new and the roadmap is yours to shape, product judgment matters as much as technical judgment here — you'll be making real calls about what to build and why, not just executing a handed-down plan.

Build and lead a new full-stack team owning a defined part of Brex's next-generation travel experience, growing it through hiring and onboarding new engineers.

Set the team's technical and product direction, making thoughtful tradeoffs about what to build, in what order, and why.
