Our ambition is to become a ubiquitous beacon of truth in global media and we need your help adding fuel to the fire. About the Role Polymarket is looking for a Senior Clearing Analyst to own clearing operations across our Control Desk, Clearinghouse, DCO, DCM, and ISV functions. Polymarket US is a CFTC-regulated Designated Contract Market and Derivatives Clearing Organization — and we are building the operational backbone from the ground up. This is not a maintenance role. You will help define what good looks like, build processes that don’t yet exist, and operate in a regulated environment that moves faster than most. The right person has spent real time in the operational trenches of financial markets — worked through breaks, failed settlements, liquidity crunches, and regulatory inquiries firsthand. You need to be senior enough to make sound decisions independently, hands-on enough to build SOPs yourself, and sharp enough to identify what’s broken before it becomes a problem. This is a rare opportunity to get in early, build from the ground up, and leave a permanent mark on how a next-generation exchange operates. What You’ll Do Evaluate the existing DCO clearing environment and identify what needs to be built, improved, or replaced to support scale Own clearing-related SOPs, runbooks, escalation paths, and internal documentation — if a process doesn’t have a document, you write it; if it’s outdated, you fix it Partner daily with Control Desk, Clearinghouse, DCM, DCO, Finance, Treasury, Compliance, Product, Engineering, the ISV team, and CX to keep clearing operations running and drive improvements across all touch points Serve as the operational thought leader for client-facing process quality — translate user pain points into process improvements and SLA enhancements, and close the loop between what clients experience and how the back office operates Support treasury management, cash movement, reconciliation, settlement, and liquidity workflows; understand where the money is at every point in the lifecycle Define and operate within SLAs — where they don’t yet exist, propose them, document them, and hold the organization to them Identify operational gaps, control weaknesses, and tooling deficiencies; bring problems forward with proposed solutions, not just observations Partner with Product and Engineering to build and improve clearing tools, exception management workflows, dashboards, and operational controls Support issue triage and resolution across clearing, settlement, treasury, and exchange operations — stay calm when things go sideways and move quickly to resolve What We’re Looking For 5+ years of hands-on experience in financial markets operations with direct, demonstrated depth across clearing, settlement, and treasury Hands-on experience with treasury management, liquidity operations, cash movement, and reconciliation workflows — you understand where the money is and how it moves at every point in the lifecycle Strong working knowledge of clearing workflows, trade lifecycle, reconciliation, settlement, operational controls, and escalation management Experience operating in regulated financial services environments with a practical understanding of what compliance and control actually require Ability to independently create SOPs, process maps, controls documentation, and runbooks — you don’t need someone to write the outline Strong analytical skills with the ability to work fluidly across business, compliance, finance, and technical teams without losing the thread Self-starter mentality — you know what matters and go after it without waiting to be told Calm under pressure and able to operate effectively in a high-velocity, high-stakes environment (Plus) Experience with futures, options, swaps, derivatives, or other exchange-traded products (Plus) Prior experience at an FCM, clearinghouse, exchange, broker-dealer, or regulated fintech (Plus) Experience partnering with Product and Engineering to build operational tooling, exception workflows, or internal controls infrastructure Benefits Competitive salary & equity Unlimited PTO Full Health, Vision, & Dental coverage 401k match Hardware setup: new MacBook Pro, big display, & accessories #J-18808-Ljbffr
