    "About Polymarket"

    About This Role

    Polymarket is reshaping how the world interprets truth. As the largest prediction market platform built on blockchain-enabled, peer-to-peer infrastructure, we let people trade on real-world outcomes—from elections to economics—without a centralized house setting the odds. With $21B traded in 2025 alone, we're scaling at a pace that demands serious operational firepower, and we're searching for a leader who can build the systems to match our ambition of becoming the world's go-to source of decentralized truth.

    What You'll Be Doing

    Own annual and quarterly planning cycles—OKRs, long-range strategy, and business reviews with exec leadership

    Build and run the dashboards, scorecards, and reporting infrastructure that power real-time decision-making

    Stand up net-new initiatives without a clear owner—new market entry, partnership structures, DeFi integrations, internal pilots—and drive them to execution

    Serve as the connective tissue across product, engineering, sales, and marketing on cross-functional programs tied to our decentralized trading ecosystem

    Diagnose and unblock stalled initiatives, resolving prioritization conflicts and driving hard calls when teams stall

    Prepare board-ready memos and briefing docs that equip leadership to make high-stakes calls fast

    Build scalable playbooks that reduce reliance on tribal knowledge as we grow

    What We're Looking For

    10+ years in BizOps, Strategy & Ops, or Chief of Staff roles, including 3+ years leading teams or large-scale programs

    Proven experience building cross-functional operating processes—planning cycles, business reviews, metrics systems—from scratch

    Strong analytical chops: forecasting, unit economics, cohort analysis, variance tracking; SQL fluency a strong plus

    Experience driving multi-stakeholder programs with influence, not direct authority

    Sharp, structured written and verbal communication skills

    Comfort operating in ambiguity within a fast-moving blockchain/crypto environment

    Bonus Points

    Prior experience in crypto, DeFi, or web3-native companies

    Familiarity with smart contracts, on-chain data, or distributed ledger systems

    Experience scaling operations at a high-growth startup

    Why Join Us

    Competitive compensation and equity in a category-defining crypto company

    Direct influence over how a leading decentralized platform scales globally

    High-impact, high-visibility role reporting into executive leadership

    A front-row seat to the future of blockchain-powered truth and information markets
