ABOUT THE ROLE

Nubank is not just entering the US market — we are already here. For some years already we have a fully operational US C-corporation, with tax filing obligations across 13+ states, a growing engineering and technology workforce hub and a banking license on the horizon. We are on the threshold of becoming a bank in the United States, and you will be at the center of it all.

This role is for a builder — someone who doesn't just execute processes but creates them. You will be the first internal Tax professional embedded in the US, responsible for internalizing a function that is currently managed entirely through external advisors. You will design the governance framework, establish the controls, and define what US tax looks like at Nubank for years to come.

You will work directly with global leadership and a world-class external advisory team, with the full weight of a NYSE-listed company behind you and the agility of a startup in front of you. Few roles offer the rare combination of technical depth, structural authority, and the chance to genuinely leave your mark on a company at a defining moment in its trajectory.

If you are a seasoned US tax professional who wants to build, not just maintain — this is your role.

YOU'LL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR

Your day-to-day will be defined by the dynamism of a complex, fast-growing financial operation. As the first US Tax hire, your main challenges and activities will include:

  • Internal Function Setup: Transitioning from an outsourced model to an in-house function by building processes, controls, governance standards, and documentation frameworks from the ground up.
  • Compliance and Ancillary Obligations: Managing the full tax compliance cycle and ensuring the timely delivery of federal, state, and international tax filings (such as Forms 1120, 5471, 8858, 8865, FBAR/FATCA, and indirect taxes).
  • Internal Controls and Audits: Maintaining the SOX/ICFR internal control environment and serving as the primary point of contact for defending tax positions during internal audits and examinations by the IRS and state tax authorities.

Essential experience

- Financial institution tax compliance: You’ve prepared and reviewed tax filings in a regulated financial services environment, with familiarity with bank-specific considerations (bad debt reserves, OID) and information reporting obligations (Forms 1099, 1042, FATCA/CRS).

- Tax project management: Experience coordinating transfer pricing studies, preparing or reviewing IRC §482 documentation, and interfacing with external law firms and Big Four advisors on strategic, time-sensitive deliverables.

- Education and tools: A degree in Accounting, Finance, Law, or a related field (CPA strongly preferred). Hands-on proficiency with tax compliance and provision software (Corptax, OneSource, or Bloomberg Tax) and the ability to use ERP systems (SAP, Oracle) to extract, reconcile, and analyze large volumes of tax data.

Skills that will make you successful

- Analytical mindset: Ability to identify P&L discrepancies and propose root-cause remediations—including leveraging AI-assisted tools to surface anomalies, run scenario models, and accelerate variance explanations at scale.

- Resilience under pressure: Proven ability to handle tight monthly closes and simultaneous audits, using workflow automation and AI-powered task prioritization to manage competing deadlines without compromising accuracy.

- Clear, influential communication: Ability to translate complex tax topics for business and finance stakeholders—and to critically evaluate and refine AI-generated summaries, memos, and presentations before they reach senior audiences.

Nice-to-have

- Prior experience in banking or payments.

- Experience implementing tax automation tools, including AI-powered compliance platforms or ML-based transaction classification.

- Familiarity with using LLMs (Claude, ChatGPT) or AI coding assistants to streamline tax research, draft technical memos, or automate repetitive data prep.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
