In 1997–98, Nascimento was a teacher at a pre-secondary and secondary school in Suai, Cova Lima.[1]

During the Indonesian occupation of East Timor, Nascimento was active in an underground network, working in the areas of political agitation and international relations. He later joined the National Council of Maubere Resistance (Шаблон:Lang-pt (CNRM)), the umbrella organization of the East Timorese resistance. Between 1998 and 2000, he was general coordinator of the East Timor Student Solidarity Council (Шаблон:Lang-id (DSMPTT)) in the then district of Cova Lima, which supported campaigns for the independence of East Timor. He also promoted that goal in the United States, Ireland, Great Britain, Portugal, Belgium and Spain.[1]

After the United Nations Transitional Administration in East Timor (UNTAET) was established in 1999, Nascimento returned to his work as a teacher in the pre-secondary and secondary school in Suai.[1]

In 2001, Nascimento left Suai to work for the Australia and New Zealand Banking Group (ANZ) in Dili. Between 2002 and 2003, he was employed by the East Timorese non-governmental organization La'o Hamutuk, and focused his attention on the oil and gas deposits in the Timor Sea. From then until 2006, he was engaged by the international humanitarian agency Catholic Relief Services (CRS) as a project manager for the Peace Building / Dezenvolvimentu Paz program.[1] He was also a lecturer at the Universidade da Paz (UNPAZ).[2]

On 1 October 2006, Nascimento was elected Vice President of the PD at a party congress.[1] In the elections to East Timor's interim Constituent Assembly in 2001, Nascimento achieved 22.5% of the vote for Suai District Representative, but was defeated by the Fretilin candidate.[1][5]

In 2007, Nascimento was elected to the National Parliament, as the third candidate on the PD party list.

On 30 August 2007, Nascimento who had been nominated to be appointed Secretary of State for Tourism, did not take part in the swearing-in ceremony. Instead, he kept his seat in Parliament and remained leader of the PD group.Шаблон:Citation needed

In the 2012 parliamentary election, Nascimento moved back to seventh place in the PD's electoral list, and was re-elected. In 2015, he took over the leadership of the PD from the late Fernando de Araújo, but later relinquished it to Mariano Sabino Lopes. From 2012 to 2016, Nascimento was Vice President of Parliament and Member of the Committee on Constitutional Affairs, Justice, Public Administration, Local Justice and Anti-Corruption (Committee A).[6] On 5 May 2016, however, he was voted out of office as Vice President of Parliament upon the termination of the coalition between the CNRT and the PD.[7]

In 2017, Nascimento was re-elected to the National Parliament, this time at number 5 in the PD list. However, on 15 September 2017 he had to give up his seat in accordance with the Constitution when he was sworn in as Minister for the Council of Ministers in the VII Constitutional Government.[8][9] As the Fretilin / PD minority government could not prevail in Parliament, President Francisco Guterres dissolved the Parliament. In the ensuing election on 12 May 2018, Nascimento was again number 5 on the PD list, and was again elected to Parliament, in which the PD initially became part of the opposition.[10] Nascimento's tenure as a Minister ended when the VIII Constitutional Government took office on 22 June 2018.[11]
