About Nexus
Nexus is building the foundation for verifiable finance, an economic system where every transaction, order, and settlement can be proven on-chain with cryptographic assurance. To do this we’re developing a DEX Layer 1 blockchain purpose-built for the AI economy, powered by idle compute from millions of people around the world, and verified with zero-knowledge proofs. This is finance rebuilt for the future: verifiable, scalable, and open to all.
Location: Remote (Contract, Colombia, Chile, Peru, Uruguay, Costa Rica)
Type: Contract
Duration: 12 months with potential for extension
The Role We’re expanding our backend engineering team in Latin America to design and deliver the infrastructure behind Nexus’s Layer 1 and its native DEX. As a Backend Engineer, you’ll build the systems and services that make verifiable trading, settlement, and financial data possible — ensuring reliability, speed, and transparency at scale.
You’ll collaborate with protocol, product, and frontend teams in San Francisco while contributing remotely from LATAM
What You’ll Do
Design and build backend services in Node.js and Rust for Nexus’s Layer 1 and DEX.
Develop APIs and data pipelines for trading, liquidity, and on-chain verification.
Build and maintain blockchain infrastructure components (RPC endpoints, explorers, dev tools).
Optimize performance and scalability across distributed systems.
Collaborate with frontend engineers to define data contracts and API interfaces.
Write clean, well-tested code that supports verifiable financial applications.
What We’re Looking For
Strong experience developing backend systems in Node.js, Rust, or similar languages.
Proficiency with PostgreSQL, Prisma, or equivalent data stores.
Understanding of API design, authentication flows, and performance optimization.
Experience with distributed systems, financial infrastructure, or blockchain.
Excellent communication skills in Business English (spoken & written).
Bonus Points For
Experience building or scaling financial systems (exchanges, payments, clearing).
Familiarity with blockchain architectures, smart contracts, or consensus protocols.
Exposure to DevOps tooling (Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, AWS).
Experience in high-performance or low-latency system design.
Why Join Us
Build the backend systems powering the Layer 1 for Verifiable Finance.
Collaborate with experts across blockchain, AI, and financial infrastructure.
Shape the foundation for a verifiable, transparent, global trading system.
Thrive in a fast-moving, high-impact engineering environment.
