Excerpted from the Brazil Career Guide


Opportunities for engineers can be found in the construction sector. There is currently a lot of investment in infrastructure in Brazil – power plants, roads, irrigation systems, and so on – which translates to jobs for engineers. There is also a lot of building activity in the residential and commercial sectors, which is also good news for engineers.

Many engineers seek advanced degrees in engineering or business administration to learn new technologies or to boost career opportunities in management of engineering-related positions. For junior positions, between two to five years of experiences is preferred by employers, and ten to 15 years of experience are a required for senior or managerial positions.

CONFEA - Conselho Federal de Engenharia, Arquitetura e Agronomia (Federal Counsel of Engineering and Architecture)
CONFEA regulates the professions of engineering and architecture.

This is just a sample of what you'll find in the complete guide.
