What you'll do:

• Help develop and execute Kalshi's politics social media strategy across X and other platforms, with a focus on growing our presence in political communities
• Assist in identifying and building partnerships with political creators, commentators, journalists, and influencers on both sides of the aisle
• Serve as a thought partner on growth activation strategies heading into the 2026 Midterms, bringing ideas on how to capture attention during key political moments
• Track which races, candidates, and political storylines are driving the most engagement on Kalshi and translate that into targeted growth strategy
• Monitor political social media trends in real time and help the team move quickly when opportunities arise
• Support cross-functional collaboration with Growth, Markets, and Product team

What they're looking for:

• Strong understanding of political social media
• A bias toward action and a resourceful, figure-it-out mentality
• Strong collaborator who works well across teams and communicates clearly
• Currently enrolled in or recently graduated from an undergraduate or graduate program
