The Brex Internship Program

Throughout this 1–2 year program, you'll be placed within one of our G&A teams, learning about areas such as risk management, finance, automation, and data analysis. You'll contribute to critical process improvements and developments, implementing our processes while leveraging AI to streamline workflows and enhance decision-making.

You'll challenge the status quo and improve cross-team communication and efficiency.

During this program, you'll complete a core project focused on key data insights, process implementation, or process improvement—many of which will involve exploring and applying AI solutions. You'll then have the opportunity to share your findings with your program class and Brex Executives.

The program is supported by our leadership team, and you'll have frequent meetings with various Brex leaders. This provides a unique opportunity to work closely with and learn from executives who are at the forefront of building an AI-native company.
