Staff Solana Program Engineer ($300 - $500k salary)

• Highly experienced engineer who has deployed production smart contracts or on-chain programs that operate at meaningful scale, with real users, sustained volume, and operational constraints
• Understand that building at scale is different from deploying isolated contracts - you’ve dealt with performance bottlenecks, edge cases, and real-world failure modes
• Thoughtful about security, adversarial environments, and long-term maintainability
• Able to work independently, take ownership, and make sound technical decisions with incomplete information
• Motivated by operating real systems at scale

• 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.
