Market Structure

What is Kalshi? Kalshi has defined a new category: prediction markets. Kalshi allows people to trade on the outcome of any events and turn any question about the future into a financial asset. Kalshi fought for years and legalized prediction markets in the US for the first time in history, is currently the fastest growing financial market in America, and has thousands of markets across politics, economics, financials, weather, tech, AI, culture and more. We believe prediction markets have the potential to be the largest financial market because they turn anything into a financial position. Our vision: well… build the largest financial market on the planet. Our mission: bring more truth to the world through the power of markets. Our culture is simple: we hire really talented people, work really hard, and enjoy the climb. We are looking for ambitious and exceptional people to join our (relatively small) team to help us build the next generation of financial markets. Role Roadmap We're looking for a sharp, contrarian thinker and relentless writer to own the lifecycle of a market — from "there should be a contract on X" to a fully specified product that the public sees and could get billions of dollars in trading. This role sits at the intersection of research and writing, with clear accountability for the quality and defensibility of the contracts we put into the world. You'll be a primary operator responsible for originating new markets, defining how they settle and what data resolves them, writing the filings that bring them to life, and pressure-testing every idea — yours and your colleagues' — before anyone outside does. Success in this role comes from reasoning fast in unfamiliar territory, a broad knowledge base, and an obsession with detail. What You'll Do Originate new markets — taking a vague hunch through to a fully specified, defensible contract Write the CFTC filings that get contracts approved Define resolution criteria and source settlement providers for markets that have never been listed anywhere Pressure-test ideas from every angle — find the missing argument, the manipulation vector, and the settlement edge case before they find you Reason from first principles when dropped into an industry you've never worked in, and build the framework everyone else reasons from What You Bring A contrarian instinct in the real sense — you reason from the ground up and resist conforming, but you're not contrarian for its own sake; handed a problem, you ask clarifying questions before assuming the framing is right Strong extemporaneous reasoning — you can summon and defend an argument on its merits, and just as readily argue the other side Genuine awareness of the world and how its cause-and-effect relationships govern markets and behavior A bias toward action and ownership — the failure mode for a team this smart is becoming a think tank, full of good ideas and short on shipped product; we need do-ers A broad knowledge base, ideally someone who doesn’t need to do a days’ worth of research on major questions of markets, politics, culture, and sports in order to discuss them and their nuances thoroughly NYC Pay Transparency Disclosure Salary Range: $100,000-$125,000 annually plus equity and benefits. This salary range is based on the current available market data, and represents the expected salary range for this role. Kalshi has minimal hierarchy and few titles, but has broad ranges of experience represented within roles. Should you have compensation expectations that exceed these bands, we'd love to hear from you and would welcome you to reach out to further discuss. Our Culture Meritocracy is at our core, and we value people who take ownership and figure (usually hard) things out. We dream big. We love our craft deeply and are proud of what we put out in the world. We are committed to our vision of building something big… but also useful: a product that brings more truth through the power of markets. Kalshians are Kalshi’s most important asset: we pick Kalshians carefully, so we trust them fully on day 1. Commitment to Equal Opportunity Kalshi is committed to creating a culture of inclusion and belonging, and we are proud to be an equal opportunity employer. We believe it is our collective responsibility to uphold these values and encourage candidates from all backgrounds to join us in our mission. All qualified applicants will be treated with respect and receive equal consideration for employment without regard to race, color, creed, religion, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, national origin, disability, uniform service, veteran status, age, or any other protected characteristic per federal, state, or local law. If you are passionate about what you do and want to use your talents to support our mission and values, we’d love to hear from you.
