nubank - Senior Staff TPM - Global Authentication & Identity
Requirements
• The "Engineer‑First" Background: A proven foundational background as a Software, Security, or Systems Engineer earlier in your career before transitioning to 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. • Hands-on Technical Leadership: A strong track record of driving initiatives through active technical influence. You possess the hands-on technical leadership and ability to unblock teams using your own technical expertise when complex engineering bottlenecks or design challenges arise. • Ownership & Entrepreneurial Mindset: A distinct ownership mentality paired with an entrepreneurial, "raise the bar" attitude. You take full accountability for outcomes, challenge the status quo, and constantly push for higher standards of security, engineering excellence, and operational maturity. • Identity & Authentication Domain Expertise: Strong understanding of authentication protocols, distributed database syncing, tokenization, and identity access management (IAM). Experience with cryptography or cryptographic key management is a significant plus. • Massive System Migrations: A proven track record of managing large-scale data migrations across geographically distributed systems and databases. • Executive Communication: Exceptional ability to articulate complex technical constraints to non-technical stakeholders and align highly opinionated engineering leaders without formal authority. • 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.
Responsibilities
• Own the Global Authentication Strategy: Act as the programmatic driver for creating a unified global login system. Formulate and execute migration plans for moving legacy, country-specific databases into a global architecture without service interruption. • Navigate Complex Dependencies: Coordinate horizontally across Frontend, New Markets, Growth, and Security teams to drive technical alignment and eliminate roadblocks. • Drive Technical Consensus & Crypto Standards: Partner deeply with Principal Engineers to author and review technical specifications and RFCs. Evaluate token exchange mechanisms, local vs. server storage paradigms, and cryptographic standards. • Establish High Technical Rigor: Untangle complex distributed systems bottlenecks. Ensure that every step of the global data link maintains bulletproof reliability where there is zero margin for error.
