Nubank is hiring a Senior Staff Software Engineer

About the Role

Nubank is looking for a Senior Staff Software Engineer to help lead the architectural direction of our Global Debt Resolution platform, operating horizontally across all business areas. This is a high-influence individual contributor leadership role where you will shape both the platform and the teams that build on top of it. At Nubank, our mission is to fight complexity and empower people through financial access and responsible lending.

What You'll Do

  • Define and evolve the long-term architecture for the Global Debt Resolution platform.
  • Drive cross-unit collaboration and alignment across Lending, Credit Card, and Credit Platform (Core Banking), ensuring architectural alignment and smart reuse to avoid duplicated flows and inconsistent debt behaviors.
  • Architect and evolve foundational systems to support multi-geo rollouts, minimizing per-country forks and enabling configuration-driven behavior over code-driven divergence.
  • Act as a technical mentor and challenger for senior ICs and engineering managers, raising the bar on architectural depth, system thinking, and cross-domain collaboration.
  • Balance long-term architectural thinking with hands-on support for current roadmaps, ensuring short-term delivery moves us closer to the desired target architecture.

What We're Looking For

  • Proven experience in a senior technical leadership role, defining long-term architecture for large-scale, multi-domain platforms.
  • A track record of driving architectural alignment across multiple business units or product lines to reduce duplication and ensure consistency.
  • Deep expertise in designing systems for international scalability, minimizing technical debt and per-market customization.
  • Strong mentorship skills with the ability to elevate the technical and strategic thinking of senior engineers and engineering managers.
  • The ability to translate a multi-year vision into actionable, incremental steps that align with business priorities.
