**Company:** [Polymarket](https://hotfix.jobs/companies/polymarket)
**Location:** New York, NY
**Role:** Data Analytics
**Experience:** 3+ years
**Skills:** SQL, Fraud Detection, AML, Dashboards, Data Analysis, on-chain analysis, detection logic
**Posted:** 2026-07-31

> Senior Data Analyst on Polymarket's Data team supporting Trust & Safety. Investigate suspicious trading via SQL, build fraud/AML monitoring dashboards, identify bad actor patterns, and translate findings into detection improvements for live prediction markets.

## Job Description

## What You'll Do
- Write SQL queries to investigate suspicious trading activity on the US exchange, from initial flag through resolution
- Field ad hoc data requests from the Trust and Safety team and deliver clear, well-documented answers without needing step-by-step direction
- Build and maintain monitoring dashboards that track fraud and AML signals on an ongoing basis, keeping them accurate and useful week over week
- Identify patterns in bad actor behavior across accounts, trading history, and on-chain data, and translate those patterns into concrete detection logic improvements
- Document investigation findings in a format that non-technical stakeholders can act on
- Work with the T&S team to prioritize the highest-risk signals and reduce noise in existing alerting systems

## What We're Looking For
- 3–5 years of experience in data analysis, with a track record of delivering under ambiguity
- Strong SQL skills — you write clean, efficient queries against unfamiliar schemas without help and can debug your own work
- Direct experience in fraud detection, AML investigation, or trust and safety analytics at an exchange, fintech, or similar environment
- Proven ability to scope and complete open-ended investigations independently, not just answer well-defined questions
- Experience building dashboards that operations or compliance teams rely on as a primary source of truth
- Clear communication skills — you can explain what you found, why it matters, and what should happen next to someone who doesn't know SQL
- (Plus) Familiarity with crypto or prediction market data structures, on-chain activity, or exchange-level trading data
- (Plus) Experience writing or contributing to detection logic or rules engines in a fraud or AML context
- (Plus) Background working directly with compliance, legal, or operations teams in a regulated environment

## Benefits
- Competitive salary & equity
- Unlimited PTO
- Full Health, Vision, & Dental coverage
- 401k match
- Hardware setup: new MacBook Pro, big display, & accessories
