Software Engineer, Product

Kalshi is revolutionizing the financial markets by creating the first-ever regulated prediction markets platform in the US. As a Software Engineer in the Product team, you'll be at the forefront of building a next-generation financial ecosystem comparable to NYSE or CME from the ground up.

The role offers an exciting opportunity to work on critical infrastructure including core exchange systems, clearinghouse operations, API infrastructure, and connectivity to brokers and market makers. Being part of a small team means your contributions will have significant visibility and impact, with opportunities to own entire systems and features.

The position requires expertise in backend development, particularly with languages like Golang and Java, along with strong knowledge of REST APIs and database systems. You'll be responsible for designing high-performance services that enable rapid feature testing and implementation of data-driven features to enhance trader engagement.

Kalshi's culture emphasizes meritocracy and ownership, welcoming ambitious individuals who take initiative and thrive in fast-paced environments. The company is currently the fastest-growing financial market in America, offering thousands of markets across various sectors including politics, economics, weather, tech, and culture.

The compensation package is competitive, ranging from $100,000 to $250,000 annually plus equity and benefits. The role is hybrid, requiring 3-4 days in the New York office, allowing for both collaborative work and flexibility. This is an exceptional opportunity for experienced engineers who want to be part of building what could become the largest financial market on the planet while bringing more truth to the world through the power of markets.
