The posting

WHO WE ARE

Baton Corporation is the development company that builds and operates the entire technology stack behind pump.fun http://pump.fun, the largest memecoin launchpad in production today. The systems are low latency, high throughput, live under constant load, and break if you get them wrong.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

As a Staff Frontend Engineer, you’ll own the design and evolution of large parts of our frontend architecture. This is a hands-on, high-impact role focused on building fast, reliable, and maintainable user-facing systems under real load.

- Architect and evolve large-scale frontend systems using React and Next.js that serve hundreds of thousands of users

- Own performance, reliability, and correctness across critical user flows, including rendering performance, state management, and data fetching

- Design frontend abstractions and patterns that scale with team and product complexity, not just feature count

- Work closely with backend and Solana engineers to define clean, efficient client–server boundaries

- Lead complex frontend initiatives end to end, from technical design through implementation, rollout, and iteration

- Set a high bar for code quality, testing, and operational readiness across the frontend codebase

- Mentor and unblock other frontend engineers through design reviews, pairing, and hands-on guidance

WHO YOU ARE

- A staff-level frontend engineer with deep experience building production React applications at scale

- Have owned frontend systems used by large, real user bases, not just internal tools or small apps

- Strong understanding of browser internals, rendering pipelines, performance optimisation, and modern frontend tooling

- Comfortable designing systems that balance developer velocity, performance, and long-term maintainability

- Deep experience with React, Next.js, and TypeScript; comfortable working close to the metal when needed

- High-agency and ownership-driven, able to drive large initiatives with minimal guidance

- Thoughtful about tradeoffs and able to make pragmatic decisions based on real-world constraints

- Interested in crypto systems or high-scale consumer products, and excited by fast-moving environments

WHAT IT'S LIKE TO WORK HERE

- We work in person

- Hours can be long and unconventional

- The pace is intense

- Expectations are high, and impact is immediate

- Working at Baton is not for everyone

WHY JOIN US?

- Unmatched ownership and autonomy

- Exposure to systems operating at the edge of crypto scale

- The ability to ship fast and see real-world impact immediately

If you’re motivated by responsibility, speed, and building products used by massive audiences, you’ll feel at home here.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
