Role Roadmap

As part of Kalshi's Compliance team, you will help build and run the core compliance infrastructure that keeps Kalshi's regulated exchange and clearinghouse operations regulator-ready as the business scales. You will own a broad set of day-to-day compliance processes spanning monitoring and testing, policy administration, employee training, recordkeeping, regulatory reporting, and review of marketing and partnership activity.

In the near term, you will help establish a more systematic compliance monitoring program, strengthen employee training and attestation processes, remediate documentation and controls gaps, and build repeatable workflows around partnership and affiliate marketing review. Over time, you will independently own Kalshi's ongoing compliance operations and help maintain a rigorous governance cadence across the company's policies, procedures, controls, and regulatory obligations.

This is a strong role for someone who enjoys detailed, high-ownership work and wants to build deep expertise in the regulatory framework governing exchanges and clearinghouses.

What You'll Do

• Own ongoing compliance monitoring and testing across Kalshi's DCM and DCO regulatory obligations, documenting findings and driving remediation where necessary
• Administer Kalshi's compliance policies and procedures, including version control, periodic reviews, governance tracking, and documentation of updates
• Build and manage employee compliance training, certification, and attestation processes across the company
• Review marketing, partnership, affiliate, and other external-facing materials for compliance with applicable policies and regulatory requirements
• Support audit trail reviews, transaction and regulatory reporting processes, recordkeeping obligations, and other requirements under the CFTC's DCM and DCO regulatory frameworks
• Administer compliance controls and evidence within Vanta and maintain clear, regulator-ready documentation
• Partner with Legal, Product, Operations, Marketing, and other teams to translate regulatory requirements into practical controls and operating processes
• Track compliance gaps and remediation workstreams and ensure issues are resolved accurately and on time
• Support CFTC examinations, Rule Enforcement Reviews, internal audits, and other regulatory or compliance reviews
• Help develop new trainings, controls, reports, and procedures as Kalshi's products and regulatory obligations evolve

What You Bring

• 4-7 years of relevant compliance, regulatory operations, or risk experience, ideally within a regulated exchange, clearinghouse, financial institution, fintech, or consulting environment
• Experience working with CFTC-regulated entities and familiarity with DCM and/or DCO Core Principles and related regulatory requirements strongly preferred
• Experience with compliance monitoring and testing, policy and procedure administration, regulatory reporting, recordkeeping, or similar compliance operations
• Strong writing skills and comfort drafting and maintaining policies, procedures, controls documentation, and compliance records
• Highly organized with strong attention to detail and the ability to manage recurring processes, deadlines, attestations, and remediation workstreams
• Comfortable working through high volumes of detail-oriented work without sacrificing accuracy or follow-through
• Strong judgment and curiosity; willing to ask questions, investigate gaps, and develop a detailed understanding of how the business operates
• Able to work effectively with business teams to translate regulatory requirements into practical processes, controls, and training
• Comfortable operating in a fast-moving environment where processes are still being built and refined
• Genuine interest in building a career in financial services compliance, particularly within the exchange, derivatives, or clearinghouse ecosystem
