2005-2008
Wexler began his career as an A&R intern for Sony Music. In this role, he pitched then-unknown artist Stefani Germonatta (who would become Lady Gaga) as "the next Madonna" and recorded her early demos. At 19, Wexler signed a record deal. He then wrote and produced full-time for other artists and signed a contract with EMI Music Publishing. Wexler subsequently wrote songs for multiple recording artists and television shows, including "Dancing with the Stars" and "The Bachelorette."

2008-2009
While Wexler was attending college, celebrity morning show host Kidd Kraddick called him on the air and invited him to participate in a weeklong tour concluding with a performance on Kraddick's show.

2009-2011
He started a music management company, where he represented several recording artists, including Rachel Platten. The following year, Wexler built The Brain House, an "experimental songwriting collective" in the Hollywood Hills, where he invited a group of writers, musicians, and artists to live and work together.

2012-present
Wexler founded The Brain Music, a cross-platform record label, artist management company, and publishing company. In 2017, he began releasing music under the pseudonym Jackson Penn. In 2018, he started The Freddy Wexler Company. Wexler cowrote the single "Stuck with U" by Justin Bieber and Ariana Grande, which hit #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Proceeds from the song benefitted families of COVID-19 first responders. Music Business Worldwide named Wexler one of the "World’s Greatest Songwriters" in 2020.
