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.
