Staff Frontend Engineer ($400k - $500k salary)

Who We Are

Baton Corporation is the development company that builds and operates the entire technology stack behind , 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.
