Job description

What we're up to

Kalshi is the first and only federally regulated exchange where people can trade on any event. Think like the NYSE, but instead of trading stocks, you trade on the events you know and care about. Kalshi has more than 500 markets across politics, economics, financials, weather, tech, AI, culture and more.

After three years of regulatory struggle, Kalshi's historic regulatory approval from the CFTC has allowed it to launch a new asset class: event contracts. Event contracts, the fastest-growing asset class today, are elegant financial instruments structured as simple yes/no questions about the future. 

Kalshi's vision is to build the next-generation financial ecosystem for trading what we believe will be the largest asset class of all. Kalshi's vision is bold. We're on a long journey in uncharted territories. We are looking for passionate and outlier members excited to embark on this voyage toward building the financial system's next inflection point.

Role Roadmap

We are building a next-generation financial ecosystem (think NYSE or CME from scratch). As part of Kalshi, you will work on various platforms, including core exchange, clearinghouse, API infrastructure, connectivity to brokers and market makers, and others. We are a small team, which means your responsibilities scale very rapidly, and your contributions are clear and visible, not marginal. There is still a lot of green field at Kalshi and a low of it (including entire systems) can be yours. As an infra engineer, you will help build and scale all things on the infrastructure layer and DevOps at Kalshi. 

Some of your responsibilities include; 

  • Provide the infrastructure to automate and standardize how software is built, versioned and deployed to target environments
  • Provide infrastructure and tooling to automate test development and execution up and down the testing pyramid, including unit, API, and integration testing
  • Design large-scale systems, making the right tradeoffs for risk and long-term maintainability.
  • Help develop and maintain the infrastructure for high-performance data feeds and trading APIs for clients.
  • High guarantee and availability clearing systems, including margining, collateral management, and banking integrations
  • Stress test large-scale critical systems to ensure their robustness and maintainability
  • Ship fast and with high quality
  • Make decisions: we give a lot of flexibility, which also means no spoon-feeding.

The company is launched and growing, which means your role will evolve and grow with the company. Joining Kalshi means you’ll be exposed to all parts of the business and define our culture. 

About you
  • 3+ years of software engineering experience.
  • Strong aspiration to learn and communication skills.
  • Strong technical grasp and ability to tackle complex engineering problems that deliver results. 
  • Strong familiarity with AWS, k8s, terraform, RDS, Kafka, load balancing, etc.
  • History of creating and applying new processes and tooling to increase engineering efficiency.
  • Lead with experience planning and driving large projects with long-term impact on a single system or team.
  • Excellent judgment on task prioritizations
  • Growth mindset, with a high slope and eagerness to lean
  • Love of the craft: you genuinely care and put your all into your work
  • Can ship at incredible speed (very simple)
  • Have strong experience or knowledge in either of the following areas:
    • Networking: demonstrated experience in debugging networking issues.
    • Security: have certificates like CISSP, CISM
Bonus points
  • Proven experience building deployment systems in k8s.
  • Proven experience building dev/test environments in k8s.
  • Proven experience building dynamic configuration systems.

Our Culture

We are a group of people who work hard and get stuff done. Meritocracy is at our core, and we value people who take ownership and figure (usually hard) things out.

We are committed to our vision of an improved financial ecosystem and our mission of bringing more truth to the world through the power of markets.
