Latent Space: The AI Engineer Podcast · Brex’s AI Hail Mary — With CTO James Reggio · 17 Jan 2026 podcast

We're evaluating whether you understand the code that's coming out.

We we, you know, we're kind of probing at you as you go.

But what we did in order to kind of

The bootstrap the process of all of our existing engineers like getting familiar with agenda coding is that we as soon as we had the interview um ready to ship, we started, we said everybody in engineering, including all the managers, are gonna have to go through this interview.

And so we re-interviewed everybody internally.

And it's like it's one of those things where it's like it it's not uh we didn't like keep a score or like or like, you know, I don't have any data on like who passed or failed or what they what they scored.

But what we

As people would take it, it would actually cause them to have moments of realization where it was like, oh, I I can up level my skills around this or like I have like I want to be better at this.

And so we're trying to find like um a way, like a variety of techniques that kind of push the culture along.

Um, and I think as I reflect on like the year, because this is the year where we really put all the effort into it, um, I'm really

satisfied to see the extent to which everybody's leaning in on a on a daily basis.

Going back to like even I I was shocked when we were looking at our cursor logs that like the number one user is the is an engineering manager on infra infraorg.

It's like that that is super cool to me.

It means that like folks have have uh have taken this to heart and found found ways of um doing their job differently.

The thing I find myself discussing with with folks that

And I I don't want to shy away from like scary topics.

Uh in fact, we were just just kind of on one that was adjacent, which is like how do you evaluate somebody's like progression towards being more AI native?

The the the the cousin to that question is it's like, will we need as many people um to operate our businesses?

Like, are there layoffs coming?

Are how are we how are we thinking about like um headcount growth?
