From Polymarket's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
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. Built as a peer-to-peer marketplace with no centralized "house," Polymarket aggregates diverse opinions into transparent, market-based probabilities that reflect collective expectations about the future.
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.
Polymarket's finance team is small, high-output, and building the infrastructure that will support a category-defining company at scale. Reporting directly to the Controller, the Assistant Controller is a critical hire on a team where everyone owns their domain end to end. You won't be inheriting a finished system — you'll be inheriting a fast-moving business with real complexity, real regulatory exposure, and real expectations that the accounting function keeps pace with both.
The mandate is twofold: keep the close tight and build something that lasts. That means owning US GAAP reporting across multiple entities, maintaining and expanding our SOX control environment as we enter new product lines, and being the person who spots a gap in a workflow before it becomes a problem.
We operate in regulated financial services with high transaction volume, crypto settlement flows, and active CFTC obligations — and if you're a CPA with deep fintech or financial services experience and the technical chops to apply ASC 606, ASC 805, and ASC 350-60 without needing someone to walk you through it, this is the role for you.
Compensation
Base salary range: $275,000 to $295,000, plus equity and benefits.
This is a good-faith range for the level we're hiring at. Experience varies widely within a title here, so if your expectations fall outside it, reach out anyway. We're always happy to talk it through.
