Our mission is to increase consumers' buying power in Latin America, and we're doing so by building an AI-native platform powered by credit. Nelo has raised over $40M of venture capital from investors including Homebrew, Two Sigma Ventures, and Susa Ventures.

Nelo has additionally raised a $100M asset credit facility from Victory Park Capital. Our lean team includes experienced leaders from top technology companies such as Uber, Amazon, Rappi, and DiDi. Everyone is an Owner Be our Best Selves Move Fast, Learn Fast Open & Honest Communication Customer-First At most companies, a frontend engineer ships tickets against someone else's roadmap and waits weeks to see anything reach production.

There is no frontend guild to hand designs down to you and no release train to queue behind. You work directly with design and the founders, ship daily, and see the conversion impact of your work in the data the same week. Every engineer at Nelo uses agentic coding tools in their daily workflow, so a single frontend engineer here covers the surface area a team of four covers elsewhere.

Own major surfaces of the Nelo app: onboarding, checkout, payments, and credit flows, from design partnership through production monitoring. Ship experiments that move activation and conversion, and read your own results in the data. Raise the quality bar Set the standard for performance, reliability, and polish in an app people trust with their money.

Reduce frontend defects reaching production by building the testing and review practices you want to work within. Automate the repetitive parts of frontend work so your time goes to product judgment, not boilerplate.



You have shipped consumer-facing mobile or web products at scale and can point to specific metrics your work moved.

You are already using agentic coding tools daily, or you are eager to make them your primary workflow. You want ownership of a surface, not a slice of one, and you are comfortable being the person accountable for it. You want a large frontend team around you.

You are not interested in working in-office. This role is based in our Mexico City or New York City office, because the speed we ship at depends on engineers, design, and founders being in the same room. Remote is not an option.

It is not optional here; it is how the team works. Lean, fast, opinionated about quality. ~ Engineering is in-office, in Roma Norte (Mexico City) or Tribeca (New York City), given the proximity required with design, product, and the founders. ~ Engineering is no exception: Linear, Slack, Metabase, and our internal experimentation stack. Engineering background with substantial time shipping consumer-facing frontend in production (mobile or web).

Deep fluency in a modern frontend stack (React / React Native or equivalent) and the judgment to know when the framework is not the answer. Working proficiency in English (our engineering documentation and much of our communication is in English). You use Claude Code or other agentic coding tools as a core part of how you work.

You have shipped in a startup or small team where you were the frontend function, not a member of it.
