Risk Labs is the foundation and core team behind UMA and Across. The Risk Labs team operates as one cohesive culture, but focuses on two core protocols: UMA and Across. UMA and Across are decentralised protocols governed by community members across the globe in DAOs, and are supported by Risk Labs Foundation. UMA's optimistic oracle (OO) can record any verifiable truth or data onto a blockchain. Across is leading the future of interoperability with its frontier intents-based architecture.
We are a remote-first, globally distributed team focused on building infrastructure that pushes crypto forward.
Risk Labs is hiring a senior commercial leader to help drive institutional adoption of prediction market infrastructure.
This is a high-impact individual contributor role focused on building and owning a small number of strategic enterprise relationships with sophisticated institutional counterparties. Reporting directly to the CEO, you'll operate at the intersection of commercial strategy, technical product conversations, and regulated market infrastructure. This is not a role for someone looking to manage a large sales team or run a mature playbook. This is not a traditional high-volume sales role. Success in this position will come from deeply understanding a handful of key enterprise opportunities, navigating complex technical and regulatory conversations, and helping bring enterprise prediction market integrations to life.
The ideal person combines strong commercial instincts with technical fluency, product judgment, and experience navigating regulated financial environments.
Within your first 12 months, success may look like:
Prediction markets are evolving into a meaningful new category of market infrastructure.
Risk Labs is helping build the infrastructure layer that powers this shift, including oracle systems and prediction market primitives that sophisticated institutional participants can rely on.
The right person in this role will help define how regulated and enterprise participants engage with this category.
This is a rare opportunity to work on category-defining infrastructure, own highly strategic relationships, and help shape a market from an early stage.
Competitive salary with a mix of salary, tokens, and equity. Our goal is to create a holistic package that meets your needs and provides exposure to the upside of what you're building and the impact you create.
