VP, Market Surveillance

Vp Of Market Surveillance

We're hiring a VP of Market Surveillance to run hands-on surveillance across a CFTC-regulated designated contract market (DCM) and to help define how we do that work 'll monitor trading activity, investigate suspicious behavior, and build cases. You'll also bring deep exchange-side and regulatory expertise into the room, shaping detection logic, surveillance strategy, and the product itself. This role covers both real-time trade monitoring and post-trade surveillance across regulated sports event contract prediction markets.

This is a builder's role. You know how surveillance is supposed to work at a real exchange, and you have ideas about how to do it better. This is a VP-level position with room to grow into the function as it scales.

What you'll do:

• Run real-time monitoring and post-trade surveillance across regulated sports event contracts to identify market abuse, including wash trading, spoofing, manipulative order behavior, and insider trading patterns
• Own investigations end to end. Build the case, document findings, and escalate to Compliance, Legal, and regulators when appropriate
• Translate surveillance practice into product. Work with engineering and data science to define detection logic, tune alerts, cut false positives, and sharpen the tooling
• Build and refine the surveillance framework: alert thresholds, review procedures, escalation paths, and controls mapped to CFTC DCM Core Principles
• Partner across Legal, Risk, Compliance, and Engineering to strengthen systems and workflows
• Help define team standards and structure as surveillance scales
