Recruiting at Brex
Recruiting is where every career at Brex begins. We’re the first point of connection for future builders and leaders, helping candidates see what’s possible. We partner with leaders across the company to find exceptional talent and build high-performing teams. We move quickly, think strategically, and take pride in creating a thoughtful, welcoming candidate experience from the very first contact. We don’t just fill roles, we shape the culture at Brex, finding the next generation of builders and leaders.
What you’ll do
We’re looking for a Senior Technical Recruiting Manager to lead hiring for Product and Design at Brex. You’ll manage a team of technical recruiters and sourcers, own hiring strategy and delivery for Product Management, Product Design, Design Research, and Design Leadership, and be the trusted talent advisor to our Product and Design leaders.
Design and product talent markets reward recruiters who understand the craft: how to read a portfolio, how to talk about design process and product sense, and how to make a candidate feel the quality of the work before they join. We want a leader who brings that depth and can teach it to a team.
This is a people leadership role. You’ll report to the Director of Technical Recruiting and partner closely with the Chief Product Officer’s leadership team, Design leadership, People Business Partners, Recruiting Operations, Compensation, and Finance as we grow in a post-acquisition environment as part of Capital One.
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 three coordinated days in the office per week, Monday, Wednesday and Thursday. As a perk, we also have up to four weeks per year of fully remote work!
Responsibilities
- Lead, coach, and develop a team of Technical Recruiters and Sourcers focused on Product Management and Design hiring
- Own hiring strategy and delivery for Product and Design: pipeline quality, conversion rates, time-to-fill, and candidate experience
- Partner with Product and Design leaders to translate hiring plans into sourcing, assessment, and closing strategies
- Shape how we assess design talent, including portfolio review, craft and case-study interviews, and calibration across design and product interviewers
- Build sourcing strategies for thin, high-bar markets, including senior Product Designers, Design Managers, Design Researchers, and Product leaders
- Maintain a clear view of pipeline health; surface risks and recommendations to the Director of Technical Recruiting and leadership
- Drive consistency in interview quality, debriefs, and offer strategy across your team
- Give direct, timely feedback and run effective 1:1s, career conversations, and performance cycles
- Partner with Recruiting Operations, Compensation, and Finance on headcount planning, tooling, and capacity modeling
Requirements
- 6+ years of recruiting experience in high-growth or venture-backed tech companies, including significant Design recruiting
- 2+ years of people management experience leading recruiting teams
- Demonstrated experience hiring Product Designers and Product Managers across levels, including senior, staff, and leadership roles
- Deep understanding of the design craft and portfolio-based assessment, and the credibility to advise Design leaders on process and bar
- Track record of developing recruiters through coaching and direct feedback
- Strong analytical instincts; comfortable reading pipeline data and translating it into action
- Experience as a strategic partner to Product and Design leadership
- Ability to operate with autonomy and handle ambiguity in a fast-moving, evolving org
Bonus Points
- Experience hiring Design Managers, Design Directors, or Head of Design roles
- Experience hiring for Design Research, Content Design, Brand, or Design Systems
- Experience hiring in fintech or B2B SaaS
Compensation
The expected salary range for this role is $235,944 - $262,160 USD. 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. Depending on the position offered, equity and other forms of compensation may be provided as part of a total compensation package.
