The company has been leading an industry transformation through innovative products and human-centered services.\nProprietary technology and data at scale power Nu’s digital platform, built to promote financial access, advancement, and transparency. Its business model thrives on customer love and lower costs, feeding a flywheel of growth and profitability.\nVisit ourInstitutional Page\nAbout the role\nWe are looking for a Technical Program Manager (TPM) at the Senior Staff level to serve as a horizontal technology leader across our Core Infrastructure and Platform teams. At Nubank, a TPM is an Outcome Owner-an engineer at heart with the programmatic capability to lead complex, cross-functional initiatives from inception to production. You are fully accountable for the efficiency, scaling, and modernization of our foundational platforms.\nYour mission is to lead horizontal infrastructure transformations at a massive scale. You will optimize database and network utilization, steer regionalization strategies, and guide our architectural evolution-whether that means refactoring monoliths into microservices or right-sizing macro-services. Crucially, you will be at the forefront of integrating AI into our core foundational platforms and ML infrastructure to maximize engineering leverage.\nCore Responsibilities\nOwn Infrastructure Evolution: Lead programmatic execution for large-scale architectural shifts, including microservices refactoring, service optimization, and complex regionalization strategies.\n\nMaximize Efficiency & Scale: Drive initiatives to drastically increase hardware, database, and network utilization across our global infrastructure footprint.\n\nSteer AI/ML Platform Transformations: Own the program roadmap for embedding cutting-edge AI capabilities and advanced ML infrastructure directly into our foundational core platforms.\n\nCollaborate Horizontally: Roll up your sleeves to map out and manage deep technical dependencies across disparate infrastructure, data engineering, and platform squads.\n\nDefine North-Star Architecture: Partner with senior engineering stakeholders to determine what our destination, long-term technical architecture looks like, converting that vision into actionable engineering phases.\n\nCore Qualifications (What We’re Looking For)\nThe \"Engineer-First\" Background: A proven foundational background as an Infrastructure, Site Reliability (SRE), or Core Backend Engineer earlier in your career before moving into technical program leadership. Please note: This is not a project coordinator role. We require deep technical expertise in these areas to effectively guide the engineering organization.\n\nHands-on Technical Leadership: A strong track record of driving initiatives not just through tracking, but through active technical contribution. You possess the hands-on technical leadership and ability to unblock teams using your own technical expertise when complex engineering bottlenecks arise.\n\nOwnership & Entrepreneurial Mindset: A distinct ownership mentality with an entrepreneurial, \"raise the bar\" attitude. You don't just manage a roadmap; you treat the infrastructure as your own product, constantly pushing for higher standards of engineering excellence, efficiency, and scale.\n\nHigh-Scale Infrastructure Depth: Extensive experience managing massive cloud-native systems, focusing heavily on core networking, distributed databases, and high-utilization environments.\n\nAI Transformation Experience: A highly valued track record of leading or heavily contributing to AI/ML transformation initiatives at scale.\n\nArchitectural Mastery: Proven ability to navigate complex architectural patterns (monoliths, microservices, nano-services) and successfully execute horizontal multi-year infrastructure roadmaps.\n\nExecution Mindset: Strong business acumen, executive communication skills, and a natural ability to step in and aggressively unblock engineering teams in an agile, fast-moving environment.\n\nOur Benefits\nTop Tier Medical Insurance\n\nTop Tier Dental and Vision Insurance\n\n401(k) matching\n\n20 days time off, 14 company holidays, and great culture that emphasizes work life balance.\n\nLife Insurance and AD&D\n\nNucleo - Our learning platform of courses\n\nNuLanguage - Our language learning program\n\nNuCare - Our mental health and wellness assistance program\n\nExtended maternity and paternity leaves\n\nSaving Plans - Health Saving Account and Flexible Spending Account\n\nTwice a week in the office + quarterly trips to Sao Paulo (Brazil) to build relationships with coworkers.\n\nOur recruitment process may involve the use of artificial intelligence-enabled tools, such as automated interview transcription and analysis, to support the evaluation process. Artificial intelligence is not used to make final hiring decisions; all decisions are made by human reviewers.\nTo maintain a consistent and fair process for every candidate, Nu does not provide individualized technical feedback.
