Analyst – Banking Operations

Operations at Brex

Operations is the backbone of Brex’s mission to power businesses through our Intelligent Finance Platform. We own credit, fraud, money movement, and payments, protecting our customers and our company. From product operations that ensure flawless launches to scalable systems that drive innovation and precision, we operate at the intersection of product, design, engineering, and customer success. If you want to work at the heart of the business, Operations is where you belong.

What you’ll do

Brex is building the operating system for growing companies, and reliable funds movement is at the core. As a Banking Operations Analyst on our Domestic Payments team, you will work the US payment rails (ACH,checks, domestic wires, stablecoin) and investigate returns and exceptions, and keep our customers’ money moving accurately and on time. You’ll combine precision and rigor in controls with cross-functional collaboration to keep customers’ funds safe, timely, and accounted for. If you meet most, but not all, of the qualifications, we encourage you to apply.

Where you’ll work

This role will be based in our New York City 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

• Work the domestic payments queue across ACH, checks, domestic wires and stablecoin, resolving cases in Salesforce with clear, customer-safe explanations.
• Monitor ACH and wire returns, interpreting return codes and running the right procedure for each.
• Watch for trends before they become incidents and escalate with clear context and urgency.
• Work exceptions with external banking partners, bringing the right identifiers and evidence to speed resolution.
• Keep the queue healthy by maintaining Salesforce routing and hygiene, balancing case quality and attention to detail.
• Write and maintain documentation (SOPs, training materials) and help onboard and cross-train new analysts.
• Leverage data and AI (Hex, SQL/Snowflake, Retool, LLMs) to investigate cases faster, build monitoring and dashboards, and automate repeat work.
• Identify process gaps, determine whether each is a manual error, data break, or process gap, and bring clear requirements to Engineering and Product.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with CX, CSMs, AEs, Accounting, Compliance, Engineering, Product, Design, and external banking partners to resolve exceptions and prepare for new flows.
• Participate in the coverage rotation on some holidays for urgent cases.

Requirements

• 1+ year of experience in banking, fintech, payments, or operations (CX/Support, Operations, or Treasury) at a fintech, broker-dealer, or bank. Relevant internships count.
• Exposure to payments, returns, reconciliations, or settlements.
• Strong control discipline: follows SOPs, maintains audit-ready documentation, and escalates anomalies with clear context.
• Clear communicator and high-velocity collaborator under time pressure: responsive, decisive, and highly effective at partnering cross-functionally with CX, Engineering, Accounting, Compliance, and banking partners to drive swift resolutions.
• Proactive self-starter with strong communication skills and a commitment to continuous feedback and improvement.
• AI-native operator mindset, using LLMs/copilots to draft SOPs, triage exceptions, and generate first-pass analyses with strong output validation.

Bonus points

• 2+ years of experience in banking, fintech, payments, or operations (CX/Support, Operations, or Treasury) at a fintech, broker-dealer, or bank. Relevant internships count.
• Bachelor’s Degree in Finance, Economics or Information Systems. 
• Working knowledge of ACH and NACHA rules, return codes, and the lifecycle of wires and checks (including Reg CC and UCC 4A basics).
• Data fluency: intermediate Excel/Google Sheets (lookups, pivots) and comfort analyzing operational dashboards (e.g., Hex) to monitor volumes, returns, and exceptions.
• Comfort with SQL/Python for operational analytics, building checks and alerts, or automating workflows (e.g., Retool, Zapier).
• Experience with Salesforce case management and queue routing.
• Exposure to audits or control testing
• Experience with fraud, OFAC, or compliance-adjacent investigations.
