About the Role
Nu is building a new generation of crypto experiences that make sophisticated financial capabilities feel simple and trustworthy. As a Lead Software Engineer on our Palo Alto crypto team, you will build the customer-facing mobile and full-stack experiences that bring Nubank's global crypto offering to life - from the first interaction through the services that power it.
Your scope will be a meaningful product area, not a single screen or an isolated service. You will lead team-level technical design, own delivery across mobile and backend boundaries, and make the tradeoffs required to create intuitive experiences without weakening security, correctness, performance, or reliability.
You will work closely with product, design, backend and platform engineering, security, and compliance partners. This is a hands-on individual-contributor role with responsibility for mentoring engineers, improving team practices, and remaining accountable for production health after launch.
