# Quant Risk Analyst - Derivatives & Clearing

About Polymarket Polymarket is the world's largest prediction market platform, where people trade on the outcomes of real-world events. As our markets, volumes, and derivative product suite grow, so does the sophistication of the risk infrastructure behind them.

What You'll Do Design, implement, and maintain enterprise-scale risk models covering market risk, margin,
