Director, Data Platform

About the Role

Polymarket is hiring a Director of Data Platform to build and scale the foundation that powers every decision across the company. You'll lead the teams responsible for our data platform, including data engineering, analytics engineering, and data science, owning everything from data ingestion and transformation through the trusted data models the business relies on every day.

You'll define the technical architecture, set the roadmap, and build a high performing organization capable of supporting one of the fastest growing businesses in technology. As Polymarket launches new products across both on-chain and off-chain systems, the data platform must evolve just as quickly, delivering reliable pipelines, trusted metrics, and an architecture that scales without constant rework.

This is a hands-on leadership role. You'll be deeply involved in technical design, data modeling, and platform strategy while building the team and operating model that enables the company to move faster. Success means creating a platform the business trusts, engineers enjoy building on, and teams can depend on as the company continues to scale.

What You'll Do

• Lead, hire, and develop a team of data engineers, analytics engineers, and data scientists, and set the bar for what good looks like across all three crafts

• Own the architecture and roadmap for the data platform, from ingestion through the modeled layer that powers reporting and analysis across the company
