About the role

WHAT IS KALSHI?

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 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.

ROLE ROADMAP

The web is one of the most important places Kalshi’s brand comes to life. As we grow, launch new products and partnerships, and show up around increasingly ambitious cultural moments, we need our web presence to move just as quickly and feel unmistakably Kalshi.

This role will own Kalshi’s brand expression on the web. You’ll design everything from core brand and marketing pages to campaign launches, partnership pages, policy and editorial experiences, and one-off digital moments. You’ll work closely with Brand and Engineering to take projects from idea through launch while building reusable systems that make our web presence faster, more consistent, and more ambitious over time.

This is a role for a strong brand designer who specializes in digital, not a traditional product designer. You should care deeply about typography, layout, interaction, motion, and the details that turn a website into a memorable brand experience.

• Our vision: well… build the largest financial market on the planet.
• Our mission: bring more truth to the world through the power of markets.
