About Polymarket

Polymarket operates a blockchain-based global platform and is affiliated with a U.S. DCM/DCO effort—bringing exchange-grade rigor to event-driven markets—while building at internet speed. It’s an uncommon blend of frontier tech and market structure.

The Role

We’re hiring a sharp, proactive Paralegal to be the Legal team’s force multiplier. You’ll support regulatory and compliance projects, litigation and investigations, commercial contracting, corporate governance, and other projects—the full stack of legal work that powers a global platform. This is an in-office NYC role working side-by-side with attorneys, Compliance, and leadership.

What You’ll Do

  • Regulatory & Compliance: Assist with multi-jurisdiction filings/registrations, policy updates, audits/exams; maintain calendars, trackers, and evidence rooms.

  • Litigation & Investigations: Manage legal holds, custodian outreach, discovery workflows, exhibit/hearing prep, and vendor coordination (e-discovery, service).

  • Commercial Contracts: Own intake → redline → signature → repository for NDAs, MSAs, licensing, data, sponsorships, and vendor agreements; maintain clause library and playbooks.

  • Corporate & Board: Keep minute books pristine; draft written consents and officer certs; support entity formations, qualifications, and good-standing maintenance.

  • Knowledge & Ops: Build checklists/SOPs, improve matter and contract systems (CLM), and drive process automation to scale the team’s impact.

What You’ll Bring

  • Bachelor’s degree from an accredited university; paralegal certificate a plus.

  • Elite organization and deadline discipline; comfort running many matters in parallel.

  • Confident redlining (Word/Docs), e-discovery basics, and crisp written communication.

  • Bias to action and ownership—see a gap, close it.

  • Must be NYC-based and in the office (high-collaboration role).

Bonus Points

  • Fintech/crypto/platform background; exposure to cross-border compliance (AML/KYC, sanctions, privacy), IP/brand, or media/sponsorship deals.

  • Fluency with CLM/matter tools (e.g., Ironclad/ContractWorks, Disco/Relativity, Notion/Jira).

Why Polymarket

  • Global + on-chain: real impact on a category-defining platform.

  • Velocity with standards: ship fast while leveling up governance.

  • Unmatched learning curve: breadth across regulatory, litigation, and commercial in weeks, not years.

Compensation & Benefits

Competitive salary, meaningful equity, health/vision/dental, commuter benefits, and catered in-office perks.

Polymarket is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to an inclusive workplace.
