Having come up through São Paulo's youth academy, the player stood out in the 2022 Copinha, played just two matches for the main squad, and was loaned to Coritiba to gain experience.

The following year, due to a high number of injuries in the squad, Nathan returned to Tricolor and was given opportunities, totaling 32 games, one goal, and one assist.

With his performance at São Paulo, the right-back caught the attention of Bragantino, which in 2024 invested R$ 5 million to sign the player. Since then, Nathan Mendes has accumulated 64 appearances, one goal, and five assists for the club from the interior of São Paulo state.
