Lead business development to onboard top perpetuals traders onto pump.fun crypto social trading platform.
О компании
- builds and maintains pump.fun , a consumer crypto product built around token creation, discovery and trading.
- pump.fun is one of the youngest top revenue-generating companies on the planet. We are just getting started.
- We ship to production daily. Bureaucracy is minimal. We solve hard technical and go-to-market problems at scale, and we're data-driven - systematic tools and the scientific method decide what works, not opinions.
- Working with us isn't for everyone. Hours are long and sometimes strange. The pace is intense. Individuals own their function end to end. When we ship something, it reaches hundreds of thousands of users within days - and that is exactly what makes it so much fun.
Обязанности
- pump.fun is becoming the place where crypto trades in public. To grow the social graph on the pump.fun app, we need to onboard the top traders in the world across every market we support - and perps is one of the biggest. When great traders trade in the open, everyone else follows. That flywheel starts with you.
- We're hiring a Perps Business Development lead to own this market. Your job: win the leverage crowd. Bring high-volume perpetuals traders, whales and the biggest creators in the perps ecosystem onto pump.fun , and make it the place they share positions, show their PnL and build a following.
- This is a hands-on, front-line role, not account management. You'll find traders, win them, onboard them and make them stick - then turn what you learn into a playbook for the next thousand. You'll sit close to product and engineering, so the feedback you bring in becomes features in days, not quarters. It's one of three new BD seats at Baton, alongside Prediction Markets and Trading Terminal.
- Find and win the traders who move markets - map the top traders, KOLs, whales, etc. in your market and get them trading on the pump.fun app
- Own your pipeline end to end - from the first DM on X or Telegram to onboarded, active and trading in public
- Grow the social graph - get high-signal traders sharing positions, calls and PnL on pump.fun so their followers come with them
- Design deals that work for both sides - referral, ambassador, creator and partnership structures that are worth a top trader's time and tied to measurable activity
- Be the voice of the trader inside Baton - bring sharp, specific feedback to product and engineering, and help shape the features your market needs
- Show up where traders are - online across Crypto Twitter, Telegram and Discord, and more
- Track what matters - traders onboarded, retained activity, volume and social engagement
- Build the playbook - each seat is the first of its kind at Baton; what works for you becomes how we grow the market
Требования
- 2+ years of experience leading BD at a crypto company (or adjacent - fintech, trading, betting, gaming or the creator economy), with a track record of driving outsized impact within an organization
- A real network in perps - you know the high-volume traders and creators who move the market, and they answer your messages
- Perps-native fluency - you understand leverage, funding rates, liquidations, open interest and the venues where serious perps traders live, and you can talk to a pro trader as a peer
- A closer's instinct - you can structure a deal, negotiate incentives, and know when a partnership is worth it and when it isn't
- Relentless follow-up - you keep a clean pipeline, follow through on every thread and turn conversations into results
- Clear, confident communication - you write well, speak the language of Crypto Twitter, and represent the company with good judgment
- A scrappy, high-energy operator mindset - you thrive in a fast-paced, resource-lean environment where you're building the playbook as you go
