Additional Information
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 Kalshi is the first CFTC-regulated prediction market exchange and the fastest-growing company in finance. We recently became the first US exchange to offer perpetuals in a regulated manner and launched KPOW, the first political index of its kind. We're hiring a Quant Researcher who will help build what comes next: new indices, new models, and quant problems across the exchange as the business scales. There's no playbook here. You'll own problems end to end, ship models into production, and work directly with engineering, product, and trading.
