About the role
- The systems are low latency, high throughput, live under constant load, and break if you get them wrong.
Responsibilities
- Own and ship an RL-driven trading agent using real capital to increase trading volume and user participation in a memecoin ecosystem
- Design reward functions and policies aligned with product goals while enforcing strict downside risk constraints
- Build evaluation and validation frameworks (simulation, offline analysis) to minimize reliance on live sequential testing
- Have personally designed and enforced hard risk limits (capital caps, loss bounds, circuit breakers) in a live system, not just talked about "risk-aware objectives.
Requirements
- The ability to ship fast and see real-world impact immediately
Benefits
- As our Reinforcement Learning Engineer, you will own a production trading system that directly deploys real capital.
- This is not a research role - it's about building learning systems that are robust, measurable, and safe under real-world constraints.
- Safely transition an existing heuristic-based production system toward learning-based approaches
- You have previously put an autonomous learning system into production that directly controlled capital, pricing, traffic, or resources and can explain what broke and how they fixed it
Company info
- 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.
