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.\nWe believe prediction markets have the potential to be the largest financial market because they turn anything into a financial position.\nOur vision: well… build the largest financial market on the planet.\n\nOur mission: bring more truth to the world through the power of markets.\n\nOur 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.\nRole Roadmap\nAs a Surveillance Analyst, you will help maintain the integrity of Kalshi’s markets by monitoring trading activity, investigating anomalies, and supporting the evolution of our surveillance framework. You will quickly develop a strong understanding of Kalshi’s products, market structure, and regulatory environment, taking ownership of investigations and producing clear, high-quality analysis for internal and regulatory stakeholders. Over time, you will partner with engineering, compliance, and risk to improve surveillance systems and adapt controls as Kalshi’s markets and products continue to scale.\nWhat You'll Do\nMarket Monitoring: Monitor real-time trading activity across Kalshi’s markets using surveillance tools and data analytics\n\nSurveillance Strategy: Design, implement, and continuously improve surveillance approaches to detect market manipulation, insider trading, and other abusive or fraudulent behavior\n\nIncident Investigation: Conduct in-depth investigations into anomalous or suspicious trading patterns, documenting findings and escalating to internal stakeholders or regulators when appropriate\n\nRisk Management: Identify emerging risks and vulnerabilities in the trading environment and help develop mitigation strategies to prevent market abuse or operational disruptions\n\nTechnology Enhancement: Partner closely with engineering to recommend and implement improvements to surveillance systems, data pipelines, and analytical tooling\n\nReporting & Documentation: Produce clear, thorough reports on surveillance activity, trends, and investigations; maintain accurate documentation of procedures and controls\n\nWhat You Bring\n0-4 years of experience in market surveillance, compliance, risk, or a related role in financial services.\n\nStrong critical thinking and problem-solving skills, with the ability to analyze complex datasets and identify subtle patterns or anomalies.\n\nProficiency in Python and SQL, including building notebooks, analyses, and data pipelines.\n\nInterest in market structure, trading platforms, and financial instruments.\n\nClear written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to explain complex findings to technical and non-technical audiences.\n\nHigh ethical standards, sound judgment, and a strong commitment to confidentiality and market integrity.\n\nAbility to operate effectively in a fast-paced, evolving environment with incomplete information.\n\nNYC Pay Transparency Disclosure:\nSalary Range: $100,000 to $140,000 annually plus equity and benefits.\nThis range reflects current market data for this role. Kalshi has minimal hierarchy and broad variance in experience levels within each title; if your compensation expectations exceed this range, we encourage you to reach out - we’re always happy to discuss.\nOur Culture\nMeritocracy 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.\nKalshians are Kalshi’s most important asset: we pick Kalshians carefully, so we trust them fully on day 1.\nCommitment to Equal Opportunity\nKalshi is committed to creating a culture of inclusion and belonging, and we are proud to be an equal opportunity employer. We believe it is our collective responsibility to uphold these values and encourage candidates from all backgrounds to join us in our mission. All qualified applicants will be treated with respect and receive equal consideration for employment without regard to race, color, creed, religion, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, national origin, disability, uniform service, veteran status, age, or any other protected characteristic per federal, state, or local law. If you are passionate about what you do and want to use your talents to support our mission and values, we’d love to hear from you.","description_format":"text","description_chars":4979,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Equity"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Stock Exchanges & Market Infrastructure"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-06-30T20:51:15Z"}],"visa":[{"country":"US","licensed_sponsor":true,"evidence":"H-1B filings in 12 months: 6","filings_12m":6,"filings_prev_12m":0,"green_card_filings_12m":0,"median_offered_wage_usd":127500,"route":null,"cap_exempt":false,"checked_at":"2026-10-15T11:24:14+00:00","sources":["US Department of Labor: LCA disclosure data (H-1B, H-1B1, E-3)"],"filings_for_role_12m":1}],"liveness":{"score":14,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.382,"p_room":0.36,"age_days":118,"expected_fill_days":65,"reasons":["conf:2","win:tail","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-10-27T05:46:45Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":140000,"is_top_pay":true},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/kalshi-surveillance-analyst","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/kalshi-surveillance-analyst.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-27T12:55:36Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":874,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-28T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":6352},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=6352"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fkalshi-surveillance-analyst"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fkalshi-surveillance-analyst"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fkalshi-surveillance-analyst"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/kalshi-surveillance-analyst\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fkalshi-surveillance-analyst"}]}
