About Polymarket
Polymarket is the world’s largest prediction market platform. We enable individuals to express views on real-world events by trading on outcomes across politics, economics, sports, culture, and current affairs. Built as a peer-to-peer marketplace with no centralized “house,” Polymarket aggregates diverse opinions into transparent, market-based probabilities that reflect collective expectations about the future.

We're growing fast – both in terms of volume ($21B traded in 2025) and adoption as an alternative news source. Our ambition is to become a ubiquitous beacon of truth in global media and we need your help adding fuel to the fire.

The Role
We’re hiring a Market Analyst to shape, curate, and safeguard the backbone of Polymarket’s markets. You’ll decide what to launch and when, craft precise and innovative rulesets, and ensure our markets are always clear, fair, and dispute-proof. You’ll work across research, market ops, and product to keep our coverage timely, relevant, and high-quality — from spotting the next big thing online to drafting bulletproof rules that keep traders confident.

What You’ll Do

• Own coverage: Ensure we’re covering the right topics at the right time across politics, crypto, sports, current events, and culture.

• Invent rulesets: Draft precise, innovative criteria for new market types and edge-case scenarios.

• Prioritize new markets: Decide what to launch and when to maximize relevance and engagement.

• Curate & clarify: Continuously tighten wording on live markets and publish clarifications.

• Audit resolutions: Review resolved markets for consistency, source integrity, and adherence to rule spirit.

• Build pipelines: Turn raw events into recurring, scalable market categories.

• Monitor the internet: Track trends, bubbling stories, and key events to ensure Polymarket stays first to what matters.

• Build playbooks: Systematize best practices for rule drafting and dispute handling.

• Monitor industry standards: Track regulatory guidance and peer platforms to keep Polymarket ahead of compliance risk.

• Experiment: Pilot new formats and market types to push the frontier.

What We’re Looking For

• Sharp legal/analytical mind: You spot loopholes before they’re problems and love airtight wording.

• Strong editorial taste: You know what matters and what’s noise.

• Exceptional technical writing: Clear, neutral, and unambiguous prose—no wiggle room.

• Market intuition: Understanding of how incentives, liquidity, and trader behavior interact with rules.

• High agency: You proactively hunt for issues and ship fixes fast.

• Data & process rigor: Comfortable mining data, building checklists, and scaling audits with light automation.

• Fast decision-making: You thrive in a fast-moving environment.

• Forecasting fluency: Bonus if you’re familiar with crypto, sports, or political markets.

Nice-to-Haves

• Experience in prediction markets, sports-book operations, compliance, or exchange rulebooks.

• Background in law, risk, journalism, or dispute resolution.

• Product instinct: You think in systems and user flows, not just content.

• Ability to script or automate QA tools (SQL, Python, etc.).

• Networked in key verticals (sports, politics, crypto, etc.).

• Personal trading or market-making history on Polymarket or similar platforms.

• Prior startup or high-agency team experience.

Why This Is Cool

• Own the truth layer: Your work decides how the world’s biggest prediction markets resolve.

• Green-field impact: Set the gold standard for market integrity and topical coverage in a frontier industry.

• Shape the core product of the most culturally relevant prediction market in the world.

• Fast lane: Ship, learn, and iterate at the pace of a generational startup poised for massive growth.
