Responsibilities
- Own the category roadmap, starting with commodities. Develop a deep understanding of each audience, improve market pages and category-specific experiences, and partner with markets and growth teams on launches.
- Develop and test experiences such as alerts, watchlists, and recurring markets that support ongoing engagement within non-sports categories.
- Define category and product metrics, build dashboards with analytics partners, and run experiments to understand what improves trading conversion, engagement, and retention.
- Work closely with engineering, design, markets and operations, support, and compliance. Make clear decisions, resolve tradeoffs, and stay involved in the details through QA and release.
- well… build the largest financial market on the planet.
- Every detail matters, from how an event page explains an outcome to how clearly a trader can see what they own.
- You'll also own the product experience for non-sports categories, starting with commodities and expanding across finance, politics, and other markets.
- If you are passionate about what you do and want to use your talents to support our mission and values, we'd love to hear from you.
Requirements
- You can align teams around a problem, explain your decisions, and work through technical, operational, and compliance constraints.
- You've shipped customer-facing products and understand what makes a consumer app intuitive, useful, and worth returning to.
- You can spot confusing interactions, simplify complex workflows, and partner with designers to turn a good idea into a great experience.
- You can take an ambiguous problem, define what matters, set priorities, and personally drive the work through launch and iteration.
- You understand how traders think about markets and positions, ideally with familiarity across commodities and macro, and can speak credibly about what these customers need.
- You're comfortable using data, customer research, and experiments to diagnose problems, make decisions, and measure whether a change worked.
- You move quickly, make thoughtful tradeoffs, and care about the small details that determine whether a product works well.
- Experience building trading, investing, prediction market, or consumer financial products.
- Firsthand use of trading or sports betting products, with a clear point of view on what makes their customer experiences work.
- Experience owning products across mobile and web, building tools for advanced users, or launching and growing new product categories.
- Salary Range: $150,000-$250,000 annually plus equity and benefits. This salary range is based on the current available market data, and represents the expected salary range for this role. Kalshi has minimal hierarchy and few titles, but has broad ranges of experience represented within roles.
