Welcome to TELUS Digital — where innovation drives impact at a global scale. As an award-winning digital product consultancy and the digital division of TELUS, one of Canada’s largest telecommunications providers, we design and deliver transformative customer experiences through cutting-edge technology, agile thinking, and a people-first culture.
With a global team across North America, South America, Central America, Europe, Africa, and APAC, we offer end-to-end expertise across eight core service areas: Digital Product Consulting, Digital Marketing Services, Data & AI, Strategy Consulting, Business Operations Modernization, Enterprise Applications, Cloud Engineering, and QA & Test Engineering.
From mobile apps and websites to voice UI, chatbots, AI, customer service, and in-store solutions, TELUS Digital enables seamless, trusted, and digitally powered experiences that meet customers wherever they are — all backed by the secure infrastructure and scale of our multi-billion-dollar parent company.
This is a hybrid role. This model requires the ability to work in a hybrid mode from one of our offices in São Paulo (2 times/ week or 8 days/ month) or Porto Alegre (3 times/ week or 12 days/ month). Our office culture is designed to foster in-person innovation, collaboration, and connection with team members, local and visiting, from other global offices
Our team and what we’ll accomplish together
You'll join the FineTune Studio team, a robotics data collection platform that powers critical workflows across multiple concurrent projects. Our engineering team supports a comprehensive pipeline: from data collection via sensors and VR headsets, through automated AI quality checks, to human QC review, and finally data submission to clients. Most projects run on a 2–3 month cycle, so you'll work on diverse, fast-paced initiatives where your contributions have immediate, measurable impact.
As our Brazil-based engineer, you'll operate with a high degree of autonomy. You'll manage incoming work through Linear tickets (feature development), who'll flag production issues and urgent client needs via Slack when real-time coordination is needed.
Together, we're building the infrastructure that enables our clients to collect, validate, and deploy high-quality robotics training data at scale. Your work directly supports multiple concurrent projects and helps drive the success of FineTune Studio's mission to streamline data pipelines globally.
What you’ll do
As a Staff Engineer, you'll lead initiatives that span front-end and back-end services — delivering performant, secure, and scalable features. You'll help define architecture, drive implementation, and collaborate closely with Design, PM, and Platform teams. You'll also work directly with our technical architects to help shape what we build — and how we build it. This is a high-impact role in a growing, strategic product area with strong executive visibility.
Design, build, and maintain end-to-end features using back end programming languages like Python, GoLang, Java, NodeJS and databases like PostgreSQL.
Lead technical design for key initiatives, driving quality, scalability, and maintainability.
Build reusable and performant UI components for a best-in-class no-code builder experience.
Own services throughout their lifecycle — including implementation, testing, deployment, observability, and incident response.
Work closely with Product, Design, and Architecture to define the "what" and "how" of features, ensuring solutions are both user-friendly and technically sound.
Partner with infrastructure and platform teams to optimize system performance and reliability.
Mentor and support engineers across the team, fostering a culture of quality, ownership, and continuous improvement.
Contribute to cross-functional planning, architectural reviews, and team-wide engineering practices.
