What are the responsibilities and job description for the Product Manager Data Products position at Polymarket?
About Polymarket
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.
About The Role
Polymarket sits on one of the most valuable datasets in financial markets: real-money probability signals across thousands of events, updated in real time by traders with actual skin in the game. You'll be the first dedicated PM for data products, sitting within the Data team and working hand-in-hand with liquidity and sales. Your mandate is straightforward: take the raw data Polymarket generates every day and turn it into packaged products that institutional clients, hedge funds, and quant firms will pay for.
This is not a role for someone who writes specs and waits. You'll be in client calls helping scope deals, in engineering standups driving delivery, and constantly asking what the next product should be and who will buy it. You'll have real ownership and real accountability from day one.

What You'll Do
- Define and prioritize the data product roadmap in direct partnership with engineering, balancing client demand against build complexity
- Work directly with institutional clients — hedge funds and quant firms — to understand their data needs, scope custom and derived data products, and turn those conversations into a concrete roadmap
- Partner with liquidity and sales on outbound efforts, joining client calls, helping pitch data products, and informing how deals get structured and priced
- Own the end-to-end delivery of external-facing data products — APIs, data feeds, and custom datasets — from initial scoping through to client onboarding
- Design pricing models and packaging structures that reflect the commercial value of Polymarket's data, not just its technical format
- Identify opportunities to build derived or aggregated signals on top of raw market data that would be meaningfully more useful to institutional buyers than the underlying data alone
- Track how clients are using data products post-launch, gather feedback, and feed that directly back into the roadmap
- Demonstrated experience packaging raw data into commercial data products that external clients paid for — not internal dashboards or analytical tools
- Direct experience working with institutional or fund clients, including hedge funds, quant shops, or systematic trading firms
- Strong technical fluency with data infrastructure — comfortable discussing schema design, API architecture, and data pipeline fundamentals with engineers without needing translation
- Track record of shipping external-facing APIs or data feeds from spec to production
- Experience working alongside a sales or partnerships team to scope, pitch, and close data product deals
- Ability to look at a raw dataset and quickly identify what a paying client would want extracted, derived, or packaged from it
- (Plus) Familiarity with financial market data products, alternative data vendors, or the broader landscape of data sold to funds
- (Plus) Experience pricing and structuring data licensing agreements
- (Plus) Prior exposure to prediction markets, betting markets, or probabilistic data
- Competitive salary & equity
- Unlimited PTO
- Full Health, Vision, & Dental coverage
- 401k match
- Hardware setup: new MacBook Pro, big display, & accessories
