Emerging markets are full of exciting fintech career opportunities. Pack your bags. Actually, don’t — you’ll Zoom in. On today’s episode, we hear from two U.S. credit execs who joined Brazilian fintechs: Rob Kottmeier, formerly Nubank’s Head of FP&A, and Geoff Thiessen, formerly a VP at Creditas. We discuss the logistics of commuting over 4,000 miles, cultural differences and the importance of breaking for lunch, and how “cross-training” in a new market sharpens your skills.
