Build relationships with local business owners to find and explain ways to hedge their risks using prediction markets.
Name matches kalshi.comYC Winter 2019Domain 11 yearsKalshi 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 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.
Local businesses are closely tied to the communities and economies around them. A restaurant may depend on visitors coming to town for a sporting event. A transport company may be sensitive to changes in fuel prices. Weather, policy decisions, and shifts in the economy can affect an owner’s revenue, costs, and ability to plan.
We’re looking for someone curious, analytical, and thoughtful about relationships to help businesses explore how Kalshi can help offset some of these risks. You’ll spend time with business owners, learn how their businesses work, and find creative opportunities to make hedging understandable and useful.
This role combines an interest in current events and local economies with a strong understanding of financial risk. It calls for someone who listens closely, earns trust over time, and follows through with practical help. You’ll help shape how Kalshi works with businesses, starting with what matters to the people running them.
Founder experience and a background in finance or consulting are strongly preferred. Relevant experience could include:
