About Polymarket
Polymarket is the world’s leading prediction market — part financial exchange, part search engine for the future. With over $6B in trading volume this year alone, we’re rapidly becoming a trusted source of truth in an increasingly noisy media landscape.
Our mission is to surface accurate, real‑time insight into the world’s most important questions — from politics and tech to sports and science. If we succeed, we’ll redefine how people discover, debate, and understand what’s likely to happen next.
We’re a small, focused team based in NYC, and we’re looking for exceptional people to help shape the future of information.
The RoleWe’re hiring a Staff Product Designer s is a high‑impact, high‑autonomy role where you’ll help define the product’s direction and craft the core user experience from first principles. You’ll thrive in ambiguity, bringing structure, insight, and beauty to complex problems. You’ll collaborate closely with the Founder and leadership team, owning design end‑to‑end: from understanding our users and defining product narratives to shipping thoughtful, high‑precision interfaces.
WhatYou’ll Do
- Lead with autonomy – define and drive design work from scratch, raising the quality bar and collaborating closely with engineers and leadership.
- Design for clarity and depth – make powerful tools feel accessible, intuitive, and engaging.
- Prototype quickly and test ideas – use Figma, Cursor, and light code to explore concepts, validate assumptions, and refine interfaces.
- Develop insights through research – talk to users, analyze behavior, and extract patterns that inform product direction.
- Define and evolve our design system – create standards and systems that keep our product cohesive as it grows.
- Act as a force‑multiplier – raise the bar through your own work and by modeling great thinking, process, and collaboration across the company.
- 10+ years of experience designing high‑quality consumer products, ideally in early‑stage or zero‑to‑one environments.
- A portfolio that shows you can think at the system level while sweating the details.
- Strong visual and interaction design skills, plus fluency in tools like Figma, Cursor, or V0.
- Clear, thoughtful communication – whether you’re sharing work, making a case, or putting together a presentation.
- A bias toward ownership and action – you know how to figure out what matters, even when the path isn’t obvious.
- Deep curiosity about markets, incentives, and the future of truth.
- Bonus: experience working in fintech, crypto, or data‑rich products.
- Bonus: exposure to trading, DeFi, or financial systems – or a hunger to learn quickly.
- Office in SoHo, NYC – work alongside a tight‑knit, world‑class team.
- Daily lunches + micro‑kitchen.
- Competitive salary + meaningful equity.
- Unlimited PTO + full health, dental, and vision coverage.
- 401(k) match.
- Tools setup (Mac Book Pro, monitor, accessories, software/subscription licenses).
The cash compensation range for this role is $230,000 – $280,000, depending on experience and level.
