This position will work closely with senior leadership and cross-functional teams (product, engineering, business) to design a compliant product and build the regulatory infrastructure to support it.

The successful candidate will work closely with leadership to help shape the strategy, regulatory infrastructure, and long-term direction of a rapidly growing prediction markets business.
