Staff Software Engineer - Payments Gateway
Staff Software Engineer – Payments Gateway
About the role
You will join the engineering group behind Nubank’s Acquiring solutions, as Tap to Pay (TAP) experiences — turning phones and dedicated terminals into secure, reliable payment devices for our merchants.
As a Staff Software Engineer – Payments Platform, you will lead the design and implementation of our systems for authorization, clearing and settlement.
Today we rely heavily on partners (e.g., Zoop); our strategic direction is to verticalize: building our own Payments SDKs and gateway to reduce dependency, gain end-to-end observability, and control core parts of the merchant experience.
This is a high-impact role: you will both build critical gateway components and act as a key knowledge source on payments protocols and acquiring, seeding expertise across multiple squads (TAP, Acquiring platforms) over a 3–5 year roadmap.
