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 & turn any question about the future into a financial asset. Kalshi fought for years & legalized prediction markets in the US for the first time in history. Kalshi is currently the fastest growing financial market in America, & has thousands of markets across politics, economics, financials, weather, tech, AI, culture & 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 its beautiful & deeply fulfilling. Our culture is simple: we hire really talented people, work really hard, & enjoy the climb. We are looking for ambitious & exceptional people to join our (relatively small) team to help us build the next generation of financial markets.

Role Roadmap

As a Frontend Engineer, you'll be part of the SWAT team in charge of building the trading experience & user-facing platform of Kalshi. You won't just implement specifications, but instead, get to be part of the product development cycle & conceive entire features before developing. You'll engage with our user base & use your product intuition to build something they love. We're scaling, which means your role will evolve & grow with the company; your initial attack threads include:

• Building new features & flows across our web application
• Writing & maintaining frontend code to drive the product features
• Iterating with designers to ensure an impeccable visual flow & continuity on the platform
• Weighing customer feedback, business needs, & long-term goals to make product decisions
• Working with marketing & business development teams to increase user engagement & satisfaction

The rest of what the role looks like is up to you - a big part of our approach is that you get to chart your path as we grow & evolve. There's a lot of green field to conquer, we trust that you'll make a lot of it your own :)

About You

• 5+ years of React experience & extensive TypeScript experience
• Nice to haves: NextJS, & backend knowledge
• Attention to detail & good UI/UX intuition
