About the role
We 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.
Your 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.
Core Qualifications (What We’re Looking For)
Our 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.
