About the role
One of the most exciting names in the space right now. Young, fast, and well-backed. Not a legacy shop protecting old edge - they're building new edge, and prediction markets are a priority, not a side project. They want to own this space before the rest of the street wakes up to it.
The opportunity:
A ground-floor seat on a mandate that's still wide open. The edge is real, the field is thin, and whoever gets in now helps shape the whole effort. Style-agnostic. Discretionary or systematic. Making or taking. What matters is that you can be consistently right when real money is on the line. What you might be doing Trading event contracts across Polymarket, Kalshi and similar Building models for resolvable-outcome markets - elections, sports, macro, anything with a settled answer Providing liquidity and managing inventory across venues Finding edge in markets most of the street still doesn't respect What sets you apart A real track record of making money in prediction or event-driven markets Sharp probabilistic reasoning and a feel for where the crowd is wrong Systematic: strong coding and modelling. Discretionary: judgement and conviction under pressure On offer Top-of-market comp with upside that reflects what you generate Capital, infrastructure and autonomy to run your own book A firm that takes these markets seriously and moves fast
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
