Visit our Institutional Page https://www.nu.com/2026-en ABOUT THE ROLE Every transaction at Nubank travels across a network before it reaches a customer. As we grow across countries, accounts, regions and hybrid environments, the connectivity layer underneath has to stay fast, segmented, auditable and cheap to run — while never becoming the thing that takes the platform down.   As a Lead Software Engineer on a Cloud Network platform engineering team, you set and evolve the technical direction for how Nubank connects its cloud, hybrid and on-premises environments. You own problems whose scope spreads across several teams and business units, and you are expected to bring structure to ambiguity rather than wait for it to be resolved for you.   This is an IC6 role: you lead through technical depth, design authority and influence rather than direct reports. The goal you own is a cloud network platform that scales with the business, holds up under audit, and gets simpler over time instead of more complex. YOU'LL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR - Setting and evolving the technical direction of the cloud network platform owned by your team, aligning with Nubank's canonical approaches and contributing back to the broader technical community. - Leading high-level and low-level design for connectivity patterns across multi-account, multi-region, multi-geo and hybrid-cloud topologies, independently making sound architectural decisions in multi-component, multi-team designs. - Managing complex network projects
