The role
A rare opportunity for a top-tier strategy consultant (or equivalent operator) to move from advising into building. You'll work with the founders, engineering, design and data to turn Nova's vision of reinventing the payment network on Pix and Open Finance into products that ship and move the business. You'll be accountable for the outcomes, not the slides.
What you'll do
- Structure ambiguous problems (a new market, a broken funnel, an untapped opportunity) into a clear thesis, roadmap and sequenced bets
- Own a core product area end-to-end, such as the digital wallet, Pix & Boleto on credit, the installments engine or new 0→1 bets
- Run discovery: talk to users, dig into data, and map the competitive and regulatory landscape (Pix, Open Finance, card rails)
- Prioritize ruthlessly and drive execution with engineering and design through crisp specs, fast shipping and full compliance
- Own the metrics that matter (activation, retention, TPV, take rate, unit economics) and be accountable for business outcomes
- Partner with risk & fraud, operations, growth and finance to launch products that are safe, compliant and economically sound
What we're looking for
- 5+ years in top-tier strategy consulting, product, or high-performing startups
- Elite structured problem-solving: you reason from first principles and are fluent with data and numbers
- A track record of driving initiatives end-to-end and delivering measurable business outcomes
- Strong communication and stakeholder management with founders, engineers and partners
- Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Business, Economics or a related field
- You use AI daily in your work
- Bonus: you've moved from consulting into an operating or product role, launched 0→1 products, or have worked in fintech or payments
