summary
Nubank is moving from one-country ops to a global footprint by building a multi-account AWS organization with separate country accounts plus a worldwide shared-services org; core tech includes Clojure and Datomic and runtime components like Kubernetes, Kafka and Zookeeper. The team duplicates prod/staging initially, then centralizes logs, security and a data platform, and defines cloud infrastructure baselines applied across accounts. Result: Mexico and Colombia provision much faster, CI/CD migrates to worldwide, baseline team grows from three rebels to a 12‑person squad and work continues.
