Kalshi is defining a new category
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. Kalshi is currently the fastest financial market in America, and has 1000 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.
Building a new category is hard… like really hard. But it’s beautiful and deeply fulfilling. Our culture is simple: we hire really talented, work really hard, and enjoy the climb. We are looking for ambitious and exceptional people to join our (relatively small) team to help us built the next generation of financial markets.
Role Roadmap
The CEO needs focus. The company needs alignment. You are the bridge. You won’t just “support”—you will lead, enforce, and execute. Quietly. Effectively. Without compromise.
You are a Real-Life Beru (bonus points if you know what that is). You’re a shadow executor:
- Right hand for executing high-impact strategy.
- Enforcer of culture, systems, and accountability.
- Protector of your time and attention.
- Whisperer to internal teams—relentlessly loyal but respected for their sharp edge.
What we’re looking for
- Loyalty dialed to 11
- Fierce but silent operator: Doesn't seek the spotlight, but can dominate a room when needed.
- Strategic + tactical mind: Can build 5-year plans and also fix today’s fires.
- Hyper-organized: Our chaos, streamlined.
- Morally aligned: We would never second-guess your decisions, even under pressure.
Qualifications
- Ops-heavy with vision.
- Tech-savvy enough to talk code and budget.
- Understands GTM, product, people, and legal risk.
- Can recruit talent and kill scope creep with a look.
Optional Aesthetic Bonus:
- Wears black or neutral power fits.
- Moves quietly, but everyone knows when they’re in the room.
- Never speaks in meetings unless it matters.
- Can answer founders’ emails in their tone, schedule their life, and fire a VP without blinking.
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.

What We Do
The first US federally regulated exchange where you can trade on the outcome of any event.
Kalshi’s historical regulatory approval from the CFTC enables it to offer a new asset class called “event contracts,” which allow traders to take positions on whether a future event will happen or not. Kalshi aims to enable investors to trade on almost anything with economic relevance from Covid numbers to whether a bill will pass in Congress, broadening the historical definition of what a commodity derivative is and paving the way for the futures market to catch up to the novel risks facing the economy today.
Kalshi is backed by Sequoia, Henry Kravis, Charles Schwab, and Y Combinator
