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

Uh we have s couple folks here, a couple in Sao Paulo, a couple in Seattle.

build

You know what's interesting.

I I thought that that would be more of a problem, but the benefit of having really optimized our engineering culture around business impact actually causes it to cut in the other direction where for folks some folks don't want to work on the AI products because it doesn't have as much clear direct like business impact right now.

Doesn't doesn't impact revenues directly.

And so I uh I think folks for the most part uh we've we've been able to

folks who have a strong desire work on on um AI products to to join that team.

Like somebody somebody transferred out of our expense management organization to come over there because they're really passionate about taking like their knowledge of like policy evaluation and and bringing it into the the AI uh team.

But for the most part, I think everybody understands like how their work uh ladders up and maybe there's some like friendly l rivalry because like the folks who say work on a card product, they they drive six

And so they're pretty happy with that.

And uh and they don't feel like they're being left out.

It's just some of the more novel, like agentic layer that sits on top of BREX that has been

put together like in this in this sort of isolated team.

So it's not like folks aren't getting to to build with LLMs or use LLMs on a daily basis.

Yeah, the architecture, you know, I I think simple is uh is elegant and we we've had basically an L gateway and and uh a basic hand rolled platform uh from the very early days.

In fact, right before being tapped to become CTO, I was leading uh like a AI uh labs team internally, uh in the wake of like the announcement of Chat GPT.

You know, everybody saw this new technology and said, Hey, what are we gonna do with it?

And so one of the first things that we did uh
