Financial infrastructure and data platform for Brazilian payment and credit ecosystems
Núclea operates mission-critical infrastructure for Brazilian financial services—processing 29 billion transactions annually representing 18 trillion reais. The tech stack is enterprise-heavy (Java, WebSphere, IBM MQ, DB2) with emerging adoption of LangChain, while active projects signal a shift toward cloud data pipelines and ML-driven commercial intelligence. Security is a growth area (3 open roles, SOAR and MITRE ATT&CK in use), alongside data engineering and sales roles, reflecting expansion beyond core transaction processing into fraud detection and credit management.
