Smarkets: Predicting the Future of Betting
Smarkets is a prediction market exchange for sports and political trading, having handled over $50 billion in volume since 2010. We're upending sports betting with the fairest prices, the best technology, and a superior customer experience, powered by attracting great people and building a high-performance environment where they thrive. We're looking for an atypical candidate with strong regulated-business experience to support our growing CFTC business.
THE TEAM
Security sits within Infrastructure and Engineering, protecting the distributed, real-time systems behind our trading engine. The team's remit spans our core products and our DCM/DCO entities, with a real regulatory dimension to the work, particularly around our CFTC-regulated business units. Alongside that regulatory scope, the focus is squarely on hands-on engineering: designing, building, and shipping the security tooling and controls that let engineering teams move fast safely.
ABOUT THE ROLE
This is a founding build. You'll stand up security engineering from the ground up through go-live and mature it as we scale, working within Infrastructure and Engineering teams to build the controls, automation, and guardrails our trading systems and regulated entities need.
WHAT YOU WILL DO
- Build the Foundations: Be part of a founding build, standing up security engineering from the ground up through go-live and maturing it as we scale, working within Infrastructure and Engineering teams.
- Design Guardrails: Design, build, and deploy security
