About the role

Polymarket is looking for a Senior Technical Program Manager to bring structure and execution rigor to a fast-moving engineering organization. You'll coordinate across our engineering teams, making sure cross-functional initiatives ship on time while building the systems and processes we need to scale.

This is a foundational hire. We've grown quickly and don't have formal PM processes yet. You're not coming in to run a playbook. You're coming in to write one.

What you’ll do

• Delivery & Execution: Drive end-to-end delivery of technical initiatives across backend services, infrastructure, and consumer-facing features. Own timelines, dependencies, and stakeholder alignment for our highest-priority projects.

• Cross-Team Coordination: Be the central point of coordination across engineering, product, and leadership. Find blockers before they become problems. Keep teams aligned on priorities and sequencing.

• Process & Systems Building: Design and implement the frameworks, rituals, and tooling that give us visibility into what's shipping and what's stuck, without adding bureaucracy for its own sake.

• Technical Translation: Bridge product vision and engineering execution. You'll need to understand our architecture well enough to scope work and manage dependencies across teams.

• Documentation & Knowledge Management: Set standards for technical documentation and decision records that actually get used. Make it possible to work async and preserve what we learn.

• Stakeholder Communication: Own communication with leadership and cross-functional partners. Clear, actionable updates on status, risks, and tradeoffs.

• Team Development: As we grow, help build out the program management function. This may include hiring and mentoring additional TPMs.

What we’re looking for

• 4+ years in technical program or project management, with time at early-stage startups scaling engineering teams (think 10 → 50+ engineers)

• Consumer fintech or trading platform experience. You've shipped products where real money, real-time systems, and user trust are on the line

• Track record of building PM processes from scratch, not just operating within existing frameworks.

• Technical depth. You can read a spec, understand architecture tradeoffs, and hold your own with engineers. Prior engineering experience is a big plus

• Strong organizational and communication skills. You bring structure to chaos and write updates people actually read

• Familiarity with Linear, Notion, or similar tools. Opinions about what good project management looks like are welcome

• (Plus) Experience at prediction markets, sports betting platforms, or trading exchanges

• (Plus) Crypto/DeFi familiarity, including understanding of blockchain mechanics and on-chain systems

• (Plus) Smart contract exposure and ability to scope work involving contract development or audits

• (Plus) Background in market microstructure, liquidity systems, or order matching

Benefits

• Competitive salary & meaningful equity

• Unlimited PTO, Health, Vision, & Dental coverage

• 401k match

• Hardware setup — new MacBook Pro, big display, & accessories.
