In order for a US company to hire a Brazilian employee, it has to be through an established company that has a certain legal status inside of Brazil. If you do not have that status, you have to contract through a local company that has that status. Doing so is extremely expensive, and creates a complex set of legal obligations to the employer.
It is almost never worth doing for just 1 or 2 employees, and so US companies that want to establish a presence in South America often do so entirely inside of or entirely outside of Brazil.

The Brazilian employee, through his company, would invoice the US company which would then transfer the money, via wire transfer preferably, so the Brazilian employee can pay his taxes. I know this because I work for 5 years for an US company as a remote sysadmin.
