+315
Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

Nexus Engineering Solutions is a legitimate, established engineering services firm (founded 2011) based in San Diego with offshore teams in Vietnam. The submission suffers from poor quality (e.g., claiming 'everyone' as audience and confusing 'market cap' with revenue). While the firm demonstrates real-world utility in IoT/wireless design and has a sizeable team (125 employees reported), the financial claims ($17M 'all time marketcap') suggest a stable but small-scale operation (approx. $1.4M/year avg) rather than a high-growth venture. The score reflects a solid business utility dampened by vague traction evidence and low submission quality.
