Junior Operations Associate

Our client is building a next-generation protocol for decentralized event markets where real-world outcomes are tradable as onchain tokens. By combining continuous pricing, objective settlement, and modular market mechanics, the protocol enables traders to express conviction, hedge scenarios, and engage with events in real time. This is a fast-moving, high-agency environment where operational excellence is critical as every decision impacts live markets, event outcomes, and user trust.

We are seeking a Junior Operations Associate to own critical operational and research functions across the protocol. You will monitor live markets, maintain operational integrity, and ensure event outcomes are accurately resolved. This role demands ownership, precision, and the ability to contribute meaningfully from day one, while collaborating closely with product, engineering, and research teams.

You will help shape operational workflows, enhance market processes, and support the growth of the protocol’s infrastructure. Exceptional candidates can grow into senior operations, research, or strategy roles over time.
