Polymarket is the world’s largest prediction market, allowing you to stay informed and profit from your knowledge by trading on future events across various topics. Backed by General Catalyst and Founders Fund.
About the role
Polymarket is the world's largest prediction market, and retention is one of the most important unsolved problems in the business. Traders come in for elections, crypto moves, and playoff runs, then go quiet. The gap between a one-time depositor and an active, long-term trader is where this role lives. You will build and lead the team that closes it. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
