About the role

Translate complex payment flows into simple, intuitive money movement user experiences across all rails -- ACH, debit, wires, stablecoins and more Define and improve key payment performance metrics (authorization rates, chargebacks, reliability) through rigorous data-driven experimentation

What they're looking for

  • 6+ years in product management with significant time in payments, fintech infrastructure, or regulated financial products -- exchange, brokerage, neobank, or high-volume consumer fintech backgrounds are all relevant
  • Deep hands-on fluency with payment rails, KYC/AML providers, and fraud tooling -- you've debugged a stuck ACH return, read a chargeback representment, and shipped a KYC vendor swap
  • Product instinct above all -- you read funnels, run experiments, and treat compliance as a design constraint to optimize around, not a wall to hide behind
  • High tolerance for ambiguity, speed, and the specific kind of pressure that comes with owning real money flows for real users
  • Fluency in crypto and stablecoin infrastructure for payments
More about this role

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.

Prediction markets only work if users trust that their money is safe, their identity is respected, and the platform behaves like the regulated financial infrastructure it is. Every product team at Kalshi depends on the money layer...
