Experience Level: 3+ years (Full-Stack Engineering)

About Baton AI

Baton AI (getbaton.ai) is building the enterprise automation platform for cross-application workflows. We’re starting by helping solutions engineering and implementation teams at software companies automate customer onboarding and product setup - enabling them to deliver value faster and at scale. This is just our first wedge toward a broader vision of enterprise-wide, AI-powered automation.

We’re backed by tier-1 VCs and growing fast. Looking for ambitious builders who move fast, take ownership, and want to help define the future of AI automation.

What You’ll Do

  • Own core systems – Design and build key parts of our full-stack web application, API infrastructure, and AI-driven automation platform.

  • Work on cutting-edge tech – Work on complex technical challenges involving AI agents, prompt engineering, eval, monitoring, API, and browser automation.

  • Shape the product – Collaborate with early customers and the founding team to define our technical roadmap and deliver features that create real impact.

  • Move fast, learn fast – Prototype, experiment, and ship quickly in a high-trust, low-bureaucracy environment.

What We’re Looking For

  • 3+ years of full-stack engineering experience and love working with React and Typescript.

  • Proficiency in modern web application development – React/NextJS and Node.js. Understanding of Python and Elixir/functional programming is a plus.

  • Experience building rich-text editors (think Notion) or excited to take on that challenge.

  • Experience (or strong interest) in building AI/LLM-powered apps and workflow automation tools.

  • A product-minded engineer who cares about clean code and great UX.

  • Problem-solver who thrives on breaking down ambiguity and delivering fast.

  • Excited to work in person with us in San Francisco.

Why Join Us?

  • Founding team impact – Help define our culture, product, and technology from the ground up.

  • Customer-first ownership – See your work used and loved by real users from day one.

  • Competitive pay & early equity – Be rewarded for the value you create as we grow.

  • Work on real AI automation – Build a platform that solves meaningful problems with cutting-edge AI and automation.

  • In-person (hybrid) collaboration – We believe the best teams build faster together. We work in person in San Francisco.

Ready to build the future with us? Let’s talk.
