About Us Nu is one of the largest digital financial platforms in the world, with more than 135 million customers across Brazil, Mexico, and Colombia.

The work will directly fuel Nubank's core products, regulatory operations, and AI roadmap. This role offers extraordinary visibility: you will lead strategic planning and prioritization on a global scale, and influence the data direction of the organization's central nervous system, and set the technical bar for the entire Ana
