I would assess customer and market risk, escalate material discrepancies promptly, document findings, and coordinate remediation with operations, risk, and engineering teams. Describe how you would prioritize multiple operational incidents during active market hours. I would prioritize based on potential impact to market integrity, customer positions, financial exposure, regulatory obligations, and the number of affected participants. I would establish clear ownership and communications for each incident, address immediate containment first, and ensure lower-severity issues are tracked through resolution. What controls would you use to monitor operational risk in a clearing environment? I would use automated reconciliations, exception thresholds, position and collateral checks, system-health alerts, access controls, and daily control attestations. Effective monitoring should pair real-time alerts for urgent exposure with regular trend analysis to identify recurring breaks or control weaknesses. How can advanced Excel skills support exchange operations and risk management? Excel can be used to reconcile large trade and position files, build pivot-based exposure summaries, identify outliers, and automate repeatable checks with formulas or macros. I would also validate inputs, maintain version-controlled procedures where possible, and avoid relying on manual spreadsheets for controls that should be automated in production systems. Why are post-mortems important after an operational incident? A blameless post-mortem turns an incident into a durable improvement by identifying root causes, control gaps, detection failures, and communication lessons. The output should include specific owners, deadlines, and measurable remediation actions to reduce the likelihood and impact of recurrence. ### What We’re Up To 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. Kalshi is currently the fastest growing financial market in America, and has over 1,900 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. Building a new category is hard… like, really hard. But it’s [beautiful and deeply fulfilling](https://x.com/Kalshi/status/1853456453886980215). 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 As an Operations Risk Analyst, you’ll help ensure the stability and integrity of Kalshi’s markets by contributing to post-trade processing and managing operational risk across our exchange. You’ll monitor trading activity around the clock, safeguard customer positions, and serve as the first point of contact for clients and clearing members experiencing operational issues. You’ll play a key role in protecting participants, minimizing risk, and shaping the systems that power Kalshi’s next generation of markets. ### What You’ll Do * Oversee daily trade and clearing operations across Kalshi’s current and new markets, ensuring accuracy, timeliness, and compliance * Continuously monitor risk exposure, system performance, and operational controls; swiftly escalate and collaborate with engineering and risk teams to address and remediate issues * Identify operational risks proactively and contribute to the development and refinement of automated monitoring and exception-handling systems * Lead or participate in incident response, root-cause analyses, and post-mortems, ensuring actionable outcomes and continuous operational improvements * Partner cross-functionally with other teams to drive continuous improvement in risk management processes, documentation, and governance, enhancing Kalshi’s operational resilience and compliance posture * Support new clearing and risk initiatives aligned with Kalshi’s growth strategy and expansion into new markets and trading products ### What You Bring * Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Finance, Economics, or a related field * Familiarity with clearing processes and operational risk management best practices * 1-2 years of experience in listed derivatives, repo, treasury, or OTC markets, ideally at a clearing house, trading firm, an exchange or a FCM * Strong analytical capabilities and technical proficiency, including advanced Excel/Google * Sheets skills (pivot tables, VLOOKUPs, macros) and a basic understanding of financial technology systems * Excellent written and verbal communication skills; capable of working effectively across technical and non-technical teams * Detail-oriented mindset with the ability to balance daily operational rigor and long-term risk strategy * Bonus: Experience working with clearing or exchange systems in a regulated environment * Bonus: Interest in financial innovation, derivatives, and the future of event-based trading ### Our Culture Meritocracy is at our core, and we value people who take ownership and figure (usually hard) things out. We dream big. We love our craft deeply and are proud of what we put out in the world. We are committed to our vision of building something big… but also useful: a product that brings more truth through the power of markets. Kalshians are Kalshi’s most important asset: we pick Kalshians carefully, so we trust them fully on day 1. ### NYC Pay Transparency Disclosure: Salary Range: $100,000 to $140,000 annually plus equity and benefits. This salary range is based on the current available market data, and represents the expected salary range for this role. Kalshi has minimal hierarchy and few titles, but has broad ranges of experience represented within roles. Should you have compensation expectations that exceed these bands, we’d love to hear from you and would welcome you to reach out to further discuss. ### Commitment to Equal Opportunity Kalshi is committed to creating a culture of inclusion and belonging, and we are proud to be an equal opportunity employer.
