How Brex scales global engineering hiring 10x with CodeSignal
Challenge
Brex is a global financial technology company that provides an all-in-one platform for corporate cards, banking, travel, and expense management. As the company expanded internationally, engineering headcount grew rapidly from 50 to more than 400. To keep pace, Brex’s talent team needed a scalable, consistent way to evaluate technical skills across global talent markets. Multiple assessment tools created inefficiencies, and Brex wanted a more equitable way to identify strong talent—especially new grads—without relying on traditional screening methods that missed high-potential candidates.
Solution
Brex adopted CodeSignal’s technical assessments and interviews to centralize all technical evaluations into one world-class hiring platform. CodeSignal’s job-relevant coding challenges and strong fraud prevention safeguards helped Brex optimize its technical hiring process, while a range of candidate prep and support resources created a top-tier candidate experience.
Results
With CodeSignal, Brex has surfaced highly-qualified candidates that traditional screening would have overlooked while elevating their candidate experience. Ten percent of candidates that passed the CodeSignal assessment were ultimately hired—indicating that they were able to accurately predict quality candidates at the start of their hiring process. By focusing on highly qualified candidates up front, Brex estimates that they’ve saved over 500+ hours of engineering time. CodeSignal’s world-class support also helped Brex’s 35-person talent team make 500 global hires per year with consistency and speed.
