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. We’re hiring Systems Engineers in Latin America to work at the core of Nexus’s execution stack — contributing to the runtime behind our Layer 1 protocol and the high-performance engine that powers decentralized trading.
Requirements
- Design, implement, and optimize high-performance components in Rust, C++, or Go for Nexus’s DEX engine and protocol runtime.
- Design, implement, and optimize all layers of the Nexus protocol stack, including consensus, execution, and API/RPC servers.
- Build low-latency pipelines for order execution, event propagation, and state updates.
- Design and implement financial and trading primitives on the Nexus L.
- Optimize concurrency, scheduling, memory layout, and I/O paths for determinism and throughput.
- Contribute to the evolution of execution abstractions that may be enshrined at the protocol layer.
- Work with protocol engineers to ensure safety, composability, and consensus compatibility.
- Investigate and resolve performance bottlenecks using profiling, tracing, and benchmarking techniques.
- Help define standards for reliability, correctness, and high-assurance distributed execution.
