Staff Fullstack Engineer
ABOUT POLYMARKET
Polymarket is the world's largest prediction market platform. We enable individuals to express views on real-world events by trading on outcomes across politics, economics, sports, culture, and current affairs.

We're growing fast — both in terms of volume ($21B traded in 2025) and adoption as an alternative news source. Our ambition is to become a ubiquitous beacon of truth in global media and we need your help adding fuel to the fire.

The team operates with a mission-driven structure. You will collaborate closely with product, data, and other engineering teams, but you are expected to drive, not wait.

- Build ad-driven funnel surfaces that route users from external campaigns directly into relevant market pages, coordinating with product on targeting logic and layout
- Ship fullstack features end to end — writing frontend UI, backend services, and...
