Rebuilding Eclipse Fi Launchpad & Back Office for Seamless, Scalable Token Launches

Overview

Eclipse Fi is a next-generation launchpad designed to support modular, sustainable token launches. The platform was initially plagued with critical bugs, poor scalability, and rushed code that resulted in emergency hot-fixes during live sales — disrupting both users and project teams. Brought in as Lead Front-End Developer, I rebuilt the entire front end for both the public launchpad and internal back office, driving seamless launches, improved performance, and full automation for internal teams.

Challenge

• Frequent critical bugs during live token launches.
• Existing front-end codebase was rushed, unscalable, and full of technical debt.
• No clear end-to-end user flows aligned with business processes.
• No design for the internal back office — built from scratch without guidelines.
• Misalignment between smart contract data structures and back-office data.
• Constantly evolving requirements and too many decision-makers.
• Internal teams relied heavily on developer assistance for project setup.
• No documentation or SDLC processes established.

Solution

• Rebuilt both the Launchpad & Back Office from scratch for scalability.
• Standardised Next.js, Zustand, and Shadcn across products for consistency.
• Implemented end-to-end user flows, ensuring alignment between UX, business goals & smart contracts.
• Introduced fully automated project creation flow for internal teams.
• Integrated third-party KYC (zk.me, Synapse) & onboarding ramps (Kado).
• Developed cross-chain wallet linking for EVM & Solana users.
• Ran agile sprints in Linear, managing developers, designers & stakeholders.
• Enhanced page load speeds and reduced UI complexity for better user experience.
• Set up SDLC best practices for maintainability & future scalability.

Results

• 150%+ faster page loading speeds across both platforms.
• Zero critical bugs during live launches after rebuild.
• Delivered fully automated project creation system for internal teams.
• Simplified token launch process, reducing user confusion and support queries.
• Removed all technical debt, enabling future feature rollouts with ease.
• Rebuilt two complete platforms in 2 months.
• Established consistent, modern tech stack across all Eclipse products.
• Improved cross-team collaboration between dev, design, and business teams.
