About Polymarket

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

The role is to build a systematic, scaled approach to paid international acquisition. This role exists to build that from scratch, with full ownership of the channels, markets, budgets, and outcomes.

What they're looking for

  • 5+ years in performance marketing or paid acquisition, with a clear track record of scaling spend efficiently and owning outcomes, not just executing plans
  • Deep programmatic expertise at meaningful spend scale, including supply path optimization, inventory quality, fraud mitigation, and audience strategy across multiple markets
  • Real multi-market, multi-language campaign experience, with genuine judgment about what localizes and what doesn't, and the ability to explain what your unit economics looked like across different geographies
  • Hands-on use of crypto and on-chain products. You understand how wallets, chains, stablecoins, and on-ramps actually work, not just at a conceptual level
  • Experience operating in a compliance-heavy or regulated category where market-by-market requirements shaped how campaigns were built and approved
  • Strong analytical foundation across attribution, incrementality testing, geographic experiments, and cohort economics. You can separate real lift from noise and explain your methodology clearly

The role is to build a systematic, scaled approach to paid international acquisition. This role exists to build that from scratch, with full ownership of the channels, markets, budgets, and outcomes.

You'll sit inside the Growth team and own everything related to international performance marketing: programmatic at scale, market prioritization, creative localization, non-traditional acquisition channels, and the measurement infrastructure to know what's actually working. The mandate is funded users and trading volume, not impressions or installs....
