VP of Product

About the role

We are seeking a VP of Product to join Polymarket. This role requires a proven track record of driving product strategy and execution, particularly in high-growth environments. The ideal candidate will be responsible for defining the product vision, building a high-performing product team, and shaping how millions of people interact with prediction markets.

Responsibilities

• Lead product strategy and vision. Define a clear, compelling product direction aligned with Polymarket's growth ambitions. Translate business goals into a prioritized, outcome-driven roadmap. Communicate direction clearly across the company.

• Own product end-to-end. Drive product development across core experiences - trading flows, onboarding, discovery, growth surfaces, and new product ideas. Own the full lifecycle from concept through launch and iteration, maintaining a high bar for clarity, usability, and speed.

• Build and lead the product team. Hire, mentor, and grow a high-performing team of Product Managers. Build a culture of strong craft, fast iteration, and rigorous thinking about user problems and business outcomes.

• Collaborate cross-functionally. Partner deeply with engineering, design, data, CX, and leadership to shape the roadmap and ship best-in-class products. Serve as connective tissue between strategy and execution.

• Develop deep user and market insight. Build real intuition for Polymarket users - traders, news readers, power users, and newcomers alike. Use qualitative and quantitative research to inform decisions and build conviction.

Requirements

• 10+ years of product experience, with significant time leading product at early-stage or high-growth startups, ideally having worked on or led category-defining products.

• A track record of building exceptional consumer and/or fintech products at fast-moving companies.

• Highly product-minded, meticulous about execution, and obsessed with clarity, simplicity, and user trust.

• Technical enough to go deep with engineers and opinionated enough to push back on scope creep.

• Experience scaling product functions - you know how to balance speed with quality, shipping fast without losing the thread.

Qualifications

• A talent magnet: you love hiring, mentoring, and building great teams, and you have a roster of people who'd want to work with you again.

Skills

• Deep curiosity about prediction markets, incentives, and the future of truth.

Benefits

• Competitive salary & equity
