Check out our Blog About Nu 

About the role
We are hiring a Senior Staff Software Engineer to help lead the architectural direction of Nubank’s Global Debt Resolution platform, operating horizontally across all business areas. You will align the debt resolution stack to a cohesive long-term technical vision spanning Lending, Credit Card, and Credit Platform (Core Banking), ensuring we build globally scalable, compliant, and reusable solutions. This is a high‑influence IC leadership role where you will shape both the platform and the teams that build on top of it.

You will identify the right long‑term patterns for collections, renegotiations, and payments, and push them consistently across all business areas and credit domains. By sitting at the intersection of Lending, Credit Card, and Credit Platform, you will ensure every new initiative builds toward a unified, multi‑market debt resolution platform.

Mission
Design and operationalize a horizontal technical strategy for Global Debt Resolution so that:

• Legacy vs. Future is Deliberate: The boundaries between legacy, stable, and future systems are explicit, with clear migration plans and guardrails that reduce long‑term complexity and risk.
• Cross‑BU Leverage is Maximized: High‑leverage capabilities (e.g., renegotiation, late‑state flows, payment allocation, credit core integrations) are built once and reused across Debt Resolution, Lending, Credit Card, and Core Banking, instead of re‑implemented in silos.
• Business & Tech are Seamlessly Aligned: You act as a direct technical partner to business area leads and GMs, turning ambiguous credit/debt constraints into clear platform strategies and delivery roadmaps.

Core Responsibilities

• Lead Architectural Direction for Global Debt Resolution: Define and evolve the long‑term architecture for the Debt Resolution platform.
• Drive Cross‑Unit Collaboration & Alignment: Ensure architectural alignment and smart reuse across Lending, Credit Card, and Credit Platform (Core Banking), avoiding duplicated flows and inconsistent debt behaviors.
• Design for Multi‑Market Scalability: Architect and evolve foundational systems to support multi‑geo rollouts, minimizing per‑country forks and enabling configuration‑driven behavior instead of code‑driven divergence.
• Mentor Senior Engineers & Managers: Act as a technical mentor and challenger ICs and engineering managers in the BU, raising the bar on architectural depth, system thinking, and cross‑domain collaboration.
• Balance Five‑Year Vision with Near‑Term Delivery: Combine long‑term architectural thinking with hands‑on support for current roadmaps in all business areas, ensuring that short‑term delivery steps move us closer to the desired target architecture.

Key Business & Engineering Metrics You Will Influence

• Recovery Efficiency & Economics
• Improved collections and renegotiation efficiency through better tooling and shared capabilities.
• Reduced cost‑to‑serve per renegotiation or resolution flow.
• Platform Reuse & Adoption
• Increased reuse of shared Debt Resolution components across products and geos.
• Higher adoption rate of common patterns and building blocks versus bespoke solutions.
• Engineering Stability & Correctness
• Fewer incidents and production issues related to debt resolution, late‑state flows, or payment allocation.
• Reduced regression and rework when launching new markets or features.
• Time‑to‑Market & Migration Progress
• Faster launch of new markets and debt strategies on top of shared platforms.
• Clear progress on deprecating legacy systems and moving flows into the target architecture.
• Stakeholder Alignment & Satisfaction
• Stronger perception of engineering as a strategic partner by GMs and business leaders.
• Improved clarity of ownership and roadmaps across teams touching Debt Resolution.

Challenges and Opportunities (What You’ll Own)

• Unifying Architectures: You will tackle the challenge of multiple, partially overlapping debt resolution stacks by identifying common patterns and driving convergence toward a single, extensible platform.
• Making the Best Solution the Default Solution: You will ensure that the best ideas from any one team become the default standard for all, through clear patterns, documentation, and hands‑on collaboration.
• Operating with High Agency: You will have the mandate to push for global efficiency and correctness, while working through influence—bringing along Staff+ engineers, EMs, and PMs across multiple BUs.
• Balancing Risk, Compliance, and Speed: You will continually reconcile regulatory constraints, credit risk needs, and product velocity, making trade‑offs explicit and sustainable in the architecture.

What You’ll Navigate

• Complexity of Scale & Legacy: Balancing immediate needs of specific product areas with the long‑term goal of a unified, multi‑market Debt Resolution platform, including leading teams through multi‑year migrations.
• Constant Context & Communication Switching: Moving fluidly between deep technical design reviews and RFCs with engineers, and high‑level strategy discussions with GMs, Product Directors, Risk, and Operations.
• Cross‑Geo & Cross‑BU Collaboration: Working with teams across geographies, and across multiple business units, requiring strong remote collaboration, clarity in documentation, and cultural adaptability.

If you feel interested in these challenges and want to work on a highly engaged and talented team transforming how Debt works in Brazil and beyond, this is the place for you!

Senior Staff Engineer, Investments Platforms

The Opportunity:

This position is for an Senior Staff Software Engineer to join the Investments Business Unit.

Investments Platforms is responsible for the core platforms that model Nubank’s investments business: custody, offer, order management, accounts, settlement and related domains. These platforms are the long‑term home for our investments capabilities and the main path to move away from legacy Invest systems that still handle a large portion of critical flows today. Your mandate is to help design, evolve and execute this environment and comply with regulatory requirements.

About Nubank's Engineering Culture:

We believe in small, empowered teams, a process‑light environment and a culture of ownership, learning and collaboration. Our architecture is platform‑oriented: we build extensible, agnostic business platforms (e.g., payments, banking, investments) that can be reused across products, markets and asset classes. You will be expected to think in terms of platforms first, translating complex investment domains into clean boundaries, contracts and abstractions that product teams can safely build on.

Nubank is also on a company‑wide journey to become an AI‑first company. We expect our senior engineers to be hands‑on with AI tools in their own work, and to help define how AI is used safely and productively in engineering and in products.

What we have to offer:

• Own the technical direction of Investments Platforms – the systems that implement Nubank’s investments business model in software (custody, offer, orders, account, settlement and more) and power how we scale investments in Brazil and future markets.

• Lead the migration off legacy Invest systems: design and execute strategies to move critical flows into modern Nubank platforms, while we continue operating at scale and meeting regulatory commitments.

• Work on a disruptive investments architecture – rethinking how investments should be modeled and operated end‑to‑end, rather than just lifting and shifting existing broker or custodian patterns.

• Drive AI usage in a high‑impact domain: help define how we use AI in investments – both in the products we ship and in how we design, build and operate platforms.

• Collaborate across the platform ecosystem – working closely with other business and technical platforms such as Payments and Banking, and with product squads that consume Investments Platforms.

• Global scope with hybrid flexibility: roles are based in Brazil, in a hybrid‑first model (office presence during the week plus periodic on‑site collaboration with other locations).

Core Qualifications (What We're Looking For)

• 12+ years of software engineering experience, including 5+ years working on large‑scale platforms or core systems in highly available, transactional environments (finance, payments, core banking, trading, etc.).

• Proven track record building and operating business platforms that are extensible, multi‑tenant and domain‑agnostic – e.g., custody, payments, banking, risk or similar – with clear contracts for consuming teams.

• Experience leading strategic migrations from legacy to new architectures: co‑existence patterns, strangler approaches, staged rollouts and data migration strategies that keep systems up while flows move off legacy.

• Strong foundation in distributed systems and event‑driven architectures: domain modeling, consistency and resiliency strategies, backpressure, observability, SLIs/SLOs and incident learning loops.

• Demonstrated platform engineering leadership at scale: defining reference architectures and RFCs, building reusable libraries and tools, setting platform SLAs, and making adoption low‑friction and high‑quality for internal customers.

• Comfortable working as a horizontal leader across stakeholders: aligning GMs, PMs, EMs and Staff/Principals on trade‑offs between speed, risk, platform consistency and product goals.

• Deep experience mentoring and multiplying senior engineers – raising the bar on architecture, design reviews, documentation and post‑incident retrospectives.

• Investments expertise: hands‑on experience with investments platforms (brokerage, custody, order management, funds, fixed income, equities, settlement, risk) and understanding of the Brazilian capital markets landscape.

• Platform background: prior work on other platforms (payments, core banking, investments) that shows you can design high‑abstraction, agnostic, extensible platforms and translate complex domains into clean boundaries and APIs.

• AI fluency: you are already experimenting with AI in your engineering practice (design exploration, code generation/review, analysis, automation) and are excited to help Nubank push its AI‑first agenda in a pragmatic, safe way.

• Language: Portuguese fluency is important; English is a plus rather than a hard requirement. We are open to strong IC8 candidates who can ramp up their English over time, and will trade off language in favor of outstanding technical and leadership fit where it makes sense.

• Resilience and ownership mindset: you are energized by ambiguous, high‑stakes scenarios, keep a constructive and optimistic stance, and actively pull teams toward positive cultural change instead of getting stuck in pessimism or only in the micro level.

If you feel interested in these challenges and want to work on a highly engaged and talented team transforming how investments work in Brazil and beyond, this is the place for you!
