Lead Engineer, Frontier Traders

Solana Foundation is seeking a Lead Engineer to own Frontier Traders end to end, with a particular focus on building the trader-facing product and experiences that sit on top of Solana's markets and data.

This is a role for an engineer who is genuinely talented at building products. You should be as comfortable thinking through an interaction, designing a frontend architecture, and shipping a polished experience as you are working through the APIs, data models, and indexing infrastructure behind it. Frontier is a data-rich trading product: numbers need to be correct, interfaces need to be fast, and complex market activity needs to feel intuitive to the person on the other side of the screen.

You will work in a small team with unusual autonomy, directly alongside Foundation stakeholders and the trading firms who use the product. You won't be handed narrowly scoped frontend tickets or a predetermined roadmap. You will own the product technically from end to end, develop opinions about what should be built, and turn those ideas into experiences traders actually want to use.
