Key Takeaways
- DASA is the largest integrated healthcare and diagnostic-medicine company in Brazil — labs (Delboni, Lavoisier, Alta, CDPI, Salomão Zoppi, Bronstein, Pasteur), hospitals (Nove de Julho, Santa Paula, São Lucas Copacabana, Leforte), imaging, oncology, and home care — with roughly 50,000 employees and a B3 listing under DASA3.
- The company is controlled by the Bueno family through Cromossomo Participações, even though it has been publicly listed since 2004; founder-family control shapes strategy, succession, and the long-term mission orientation in ways no quarterly investor deck fully captures.
- All hiring runs through Gupy across six career subdomains (corp, assistencial, tecnologia, atendimento, programasdeentrada, diversidasa) — always start at dasa.com.br/carreira and pick the right portal rather than searching from a generic job aggregator that may surface stale or scraped postings.
- Portuguese is mandatory for the CV, the application questionnaires, the video, and the interviews — DASA serves Brazilian patients in a Brazilian regulatory environment and an English-only application is a significant negative signal even for technology roles.
- The 2022 merger with Ímpar Serviços Hospitalares created Brazil's first vertically integrated lab-plus-hospital platform but loaded the company with ~R$ 8–10 billion of net debt; 2023 and 2024 were dominated by restructuring, asset sales, and a R$ 1.7 billion follow-on offering — interviewers will probe for tolerance of ambiguity and post-merger integration capability.
- Compensation is competitive within Brazilian healthcare but not benchmarked against multinational tech; ranges typically run R$ 80k–150k/year for analysts, R$ 150k–250k for mid-senior corporate and tech, R$ 300k+ plus PLR (profit share) for managers and above, with full CLT benefits (VR, VT, plano de saúde DASA, plano odontológico, seguro de vida).
- DASA loses many offers to Fleury (the other major Brazilian diagnostic player, perceived as more premium and less levered) and to Rede D'Or (the dominant private hospital network, perceived as faster-growing and better-paying for senior hospital talent) — go in with a clear answer for why DASA's integrated platform matters more to you than either alternative.
- Clinical, lab, and hospital roles require active Brazilian professional registration (CRM, COREN, CRBM, CRF, CRBio, CRP, CFT) with the relevant regional council — list the registry number, state, and active status on the CV or the Gupy parser will deprioritize you regardless of credentials.
- DASA actively runs trainee, internship, jovem aprendiz, and affirmative-hiring programs through dasaprogramasdeentrada.gupy.io and diversidasa.gupy.io — these are real on-ramps for early-career, Black, Indigenous, LGBTQIAP+, women-in-tech, 50+, and people-with-disabilities candidates, with structured cohort calendars (typically annual).

Application Process

1
All DASA hiring runs through Gupy, the leading Brazilian ATS, organized into six
All DASA hiring runs through Gupy, the leading Brazilian ATS, organized into six dedicated career portals: dasacorp.gupy.io for corporate, finance, legal, marketing, HR, and strategy roles; dasaassistencial.gupy.io for clinical, lab, hospital, nursing, biomedical, and physician roles (this is also where Hospital Nove de Julho, Santa Paula, São Lucas, and Leforte vacancies live); dasatecnologia.gupy.io for technology, engineering, data, product, and cybersecurity roles; dasaatendimento.gupy.io for customer-facing service, call center, scheduling, and reception roles; dasaprogramasdeentrada.gupy.io for trainee, internship, jovem aprendiz, and early-career programs; and diversidasa.gupy.io for the affirmative-hiring portal focused on Black, Indigenous, LGBTQIAP+, women in tech, people with disabilities, and 50+ candidates. Always start at dasa.com.br/carreira to see the canonical list of subdomains rather than guessing.

Create a Gupy candidate profile (one account works across every Gupy-powered emp
Create a Gupy candidate profile (one account works across every Gupy-powered employer in Brazil — DASA, Magazine Luiza, Ambev, Vivo, Itaú, etc.). Fill out the entire profile in Portuguese: full name, CPF, RG, address, phone, LinkedIn URL, education with institution and year, work history with company, role, dates, and a short Portuguese description of responsibilities, languages, and salary expectation in BRL. Upload your CV as a PDF in Portuguese — Gupy will parse it, but a clean PDF anchored to a Portuguese profile dramatically improves the parser's match score, which is the first gate.
-
3
Search vacancies by city, area, and seniority on the relevant subdomain
Search vacancies by city, area, and seniority on the relevant subdomain. Each posting shows title, location (often the specific hospital, lab, or unit), regime CLT or PJ, attachment to a brand (Delboni, Lavoisier, Hospital Nove de Julho, etc.), and a short description in Portuguese. Read the description carefully — DASA frequently lists CRM, COREN, CRBM, CRF, or CRBio registration as hard requirements for clinical roles, and applications without the registry number get screened out automatically.

4
Submit the application and complete every Gupy-administered step in the same ses
Submit the application and complete every Gupy-administered step in the same session if possible. Most DASA postings include: a portfolio of multiple-choice questions in Portuguese (motivation, availability for shift work, willingness to relocate within Greater São Paulo or Rio, salary expectation, registration numbers); a short video answer (1 to 3 minutes, recorded in Portuguese, usually 'why DASA' or 'tell us about a patient-facing situation'); a behavioral or cognitive assessment for corporate and tech roles; and a Portuguese language self-assessment. Skipping the optional video tanks your Gupy match score even when the field is technically optional.

Watch the Gupy app status
Watch the Gupy app status. Stages are clearly labeled in Portuguese: 'Triagem' (auto-screening by the matching algorithm), 'Em análise' (recruiter is reviewing), 'Entrevista com RH' (interview with the recruiter, virtual via Zoom or Google Meet), 'Entrevista técnica' or 'Entrevista com gestor' (with the hiring manager — for clinical roles this often means the medical or technical coordinator at the unit), 'Avaliação prática' (a practical exam, common for lab analysts, biomedical technicians, and developers), 'Exames admissionais' (pre-employment medical exams at a DASA unit — yes, you get checked at one of their own labs), and 'Proposta' (offer). Most processes take 3 to 8 weeks; trainee programs take longer and run on a fixed cohort calendar.
Resume Tips for DASA (Diagnosticos da America)
Submit the CV in Portuguese (Brazilian Portuguese, never European Portuguese)
Submit the CV in Portuguese (Brazilian Portuguese, never European Portuguese). DASA is a Brazilian healthcare company serving Brazilian patients in Brazilian regulatory environments — an English-only CV is a significant negative signal even for tech roles, and Spanish or Portuguese-from-Portugal will be flagged as a language mismatch by the Gupy parser.
Lead with healthcare context
Lead with healthcare context. For clinical, lab, and hospital roles state your professional registration up front: CRM (medical), COREN (nursing), CRBM (biomedical), CRF (pharmacy), CRBio (biology), CFT (technical), CRP (psychology), with the state code and active status. Recruiters filter on this in Gupy and missing it kills the application even when you hold the credential.
Quantify clinical and operational metrics in Brazilian terms — numero de exames
Quantify clinical and operational metrics in Brazilian terms — numero de exames processados por turno, TAT (turnaround time) de laudos, taxa de re-coleta, número de leitos sob responsabilidade, NPS do paciente, taxa de glosas, faturamento mensal da unidade, redução de retrabalho, indicadores de qualidade ONA ou JCI, conformidade RDC ANVISA. DASA is process- and metrics-heavy and rewards candidates who speak in those units.
For tech roles at dasatecnologia
For tech roles at dasatecnologia.gupy.io, anchor experience to the modern Brazilian healthtech stack DASA actually uses or adjacent: AWS (DASA is largely on AWS), Databricks and Snowflake for analytics, Python and Scala for data, React and Node for frontends, Kotlin and Swift for mobile, FHIR and HL7 for interoperability, LGPD and HIPAA-equivalent compliance, and integrations with health-plan EDIs (TISS) and SUS systems. Generic full-stack CVs without healthcare context lose to candidates who name the regulatory standards.
For corporate and finance roles, name the systems and frameworks: SAP (DASA runs
For corporate and finance roles, name the systems and frameworks: SAP (DASA runs on SAP), Oracle EPM, Power BI, Anaplan, IFRS reporting (DASA is publicly listed and reports under IFRS), Sarbanes-Oxley-equivalent SOX for B3 Novo Mercado-adjacent compliance, M&A integration experience (huge plus given the 2022 merger), and Portuguese-language financial modeling. Mention Brazilian tax frameworks (PIS, COFINS, ICMS on services, ISS) explicitly.
Keep the CV to two pages, conservative formatting, no photo, no graphics, no inf
Keep the CV to two pages, conservative formatting, no photo, no graphics, no infographics, no two-column layouts. Gupy parses single-column PDFs cleanly and butchers anything else. Use standard headings in Portuguese: Resumo Profissional, Experiência Profissional, Formação Acadêmica, Idiomas, Cursos e Certificações, Registros Profissionais.
Tailor the 'objetivo' or 'resumo profissional' line to the exact vacancy and the
Tailor the 'objetivo' or 'resumo profissional' line to the exact vacancy and the exact unit. DASA's matching algorithm in Gupy weights keyword overlap heavily — a CV that names 'Hospital Nove de Julho' or 'Lavoisier' or 'CDPI' when applying to a role at that specific brand outranks a generic CV by a wide margin in the initial Triagem stage.
Show stability and unit-level continuity
Show stability and unit-level continuity. Brazilian healthcare hiring penalizes job-hopping more than tech does — recruiters look for at least 18 to 24 months at recent employers, and they look for context (a lab or hospital that closed, a merger, a relocation) when tenure is shorter. Provide that context in two-line role descriptions rather than leaving gaps unexplained.

Interview Culture
DASA interviews reflect mainstream Brazilian corporate healthcare culture, with three layers stacked on top of each other.
What DASA (Diagnosticos da America) Looks For
- Native or near-native Brazilian Portuguese — non-negotiable for every role above the most junior tech IC level. Interviews, documentation, regulatory filings, patient-facing communications, and internal Slack-equivalent (Workplace by Meta historically, now Microsoft Teams) all run in Portuguese.
- Deep familiarity with Brazilian healthcare regulation and the operadora/private-pay/SUS payor mix — ANVISA for diagnostic and pharmaceutical compliance, ANS for health-plan operator rules, CFM/COREN/CRBM for professional councils, LGPD for data, ONA and JCI for hospital accreditation, RDC 302 for lab quality. Even tech and corporate hires are expected to understand the regulatory floor.
- Comfort with the post-merger turnaround context — high change velocity, brand consolidation, debt service, public-company quarterly earnings discipline, and the Bueno-family controlling-shareholder dynamic. DASA hires people who can operate inside ambiguity, not people who need a steady-state org chart.
- Operational and clinical metrics literacy — TAT, NPS, glosa rate, taxa de retrabalho, custo por exame, ocupação de leito, giro de leito, ticket médio, ROIC, EBITDA margin, leverage ratio. Almost every role above analyst is measured against numerical KPIs and DASA recruits for people who already think in those units.
- For tech roles: production experience with cloud (AWS preferred), modern data platforms (Databricks, Snowflake, Spark), Python or Scala, React/Node, mobile (Kotlin/Swift), microservices architecture, and a healthcare-specific layer such as FHIR, HL7, TISS, ICD-10, or DICOM for imaging. Generic backend or full-stack profiles without a domain anchor lose to candidates who can speak the regulatory and clinical vocabulary.
- Institutional empathy and patient-mission orientation — the willingness to remember that a delayed laudo means a real patient is waiting for a cancer staging result. DASA's culture, set largely by the Bueno family and the clinical leadership, rewards mission-driven seriousness over performative ambition.
- Geographic flexibility within Greater São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro — corporate is in Barueri (a long commute from São Paulo capital without a car), Hospital Nove de Julho is on Rua Peixoto Gomide in Bela Vista, CDPI and Bronstein are in Rio, Lavoisier and Alta have units throughout SP capital. Many roles require willingness to rotate across units or be assigned to a specific site.
- For senior corporate, finance, or strategy hires: M&A integration experience (the 2022 Ímpar deal is still being digested), public-company investor-relations comfort (DASA is on the B3 with active sell-side coverage), and the maturity to navigate a controlling-shareholder governance model where the Bueno family holds the strategic pen.
