About the Role
Every product Nu Colombia launches needs a clear accounting and regulatory treatment before the first customer uses it. The Accounting and Regulatory Specifications (ARS) team, part of Controllership, owns that treatment: it protects the accuracy of our financial statements and regulatory reports, and lets Product and Engineering launch with confidence. As a Controllership Analyst (ARS), you will own the accounting and regulatory specification of the products and changes assigned to you, from the first assessment until the monthly close and the regulatory reports work correctly.
You will work side by side with Product, Engineering and our peers in other geographies. We are also an AI-first team: we build and use our own ARS AI agent and other automations to assess new products, simulate scenarios and draft specifications and memos, and we want people who help us push that further
You’ll be Responsible for
- Defining the accounting and regulatory treatment of new products and changes to existing ones before they launch: specifications, accounting scripts, chart of accounts mappings and technical memos.
- Joining our daily triage of new product initiatives and deciding which ones need a full accounting and regulatory assessment.
- Testing the accounting and regulatory impact of new products with engineering in staging, validating the first operations in production and following up until the issues found are solved.
- Supporting the monthly close by answering the questions from the accounting team after a launch.
- Changing the way the team works with AI: using and improving our ARS AI agent and automations (product assessments, scenario simulations, report lineage, documentation), sharing what works and helping the team adopt it.
What We're Looking For Someone Who Has
- Bachelor's degree in accounting, finance, economics, business administration, engineering or related fields.
- Experience in accounting, finance, financial control or audit.
- Experience applying accounting standards (IFRS and/or local GAAP) to define how a financial product or transaction should be recorded.
- Hands-on experience using AI assistants or agents to automate analysis, documentation or reviews, and enthusiasm for testing what works.
- Experience explaining technical accounting topics in simple, business-friendly terms, in writing and in conversation, to Product and Engineering teams.
- Experience handling several topics at once in a fast-moving environment and following up until they are solved.
- Fluent in Spanish and English to work with teams in different geos. (Must)
- Experience with regulatory reporting to the Superintendencia Financiera, Banco de la República or Fogafín, and with the Colombian chart of accounts. (Nice to have)
- Experience with SAP or another ERP, SQL or Python to automate analysis.
