ABOUT THE ROLE
Nu runs a twelve-year-old platform that has never stopped growing: thousands of microservices, low-latency payment rails, large-scale data platforms, machine learning in the critical path, and one mobile app carrying a dozen financial products across several regulated markets. We are expanding into new countries, new lines of business and new interfaces, including AI agents that act on customers’ behalf. Many of the systems we need for that don’t exist yet.
