We are looking for a Data & Security Engineer to build, maintain, and secure analytics infrastructure for a prediction market platform (Forkast). This role sits at the intersection of data engineering, on-chain analytics, and security, with a strong focus on trade activity analysis, dashboarding, and anomaly detection.

You will be responsible for transforming raw on-chain and off-chain data into actionable insights, powering Hex dashboards, Dune Analytics, and internal monitoring systems that support product decisions, risk management, and market integrity.

Data & Analytics

  • Design and maintain Hex dashboards for real-time and historical market insights.
  • Build and optimize Dune Analytics queries for on-chain trade activity, liquidity, user behavior, and market performance.
  • Analyze trade activity across prediction markets to identify patterns, trends, and anomalies.
  • Develop data pipelines to ingest, clean, and normalize blockchain and application-level data.
  • Support forecasting and prediction market analytics (volume, liquidity, pricing efficiency, trader behavior).


Security & Risk

  • Monitor markets for suspicious trading behavior, manipulation, wash trading, or oracle exploitation.
  • Build alerts and dashboards for risk and security events.
  • Collaborate with protocol and smart contract teams to assess data-related security risks.
  • Ensure data integrity, access control, and best practices for sensitive analytics infrastructure.


Prediction Market Intelligence

  • Support Forkast market design with data-driven insights.
  • Analyze market resolution accuracy, trader incentives, and pricing signals.
  • Create metrics to evaluate market health and predictive performance.


Requirements:


Technical Skills

  • Hands-on experience building Dashboards in Hex (or similar BI tools).
  • Familiarity with blockchain data (Ethereum or EVM chains preferred).
  • Experience analyzing on-chain trade activity and user behavior.
  • Solid understanding of data security principles and monitoring systems.

Nice to Have

  • Experience with prediction markets, DeFi, or financial markets.
  • Knowledge of smart contracts, oracles, and on-chain risk vectors.
  • Python or similar language for data processing and automation.
  • Experience with anomaly detection or fraud analysis.
  • Familiarity with Forkast or similar platforms (Polymarket, Kalshi, etc.).


What we are looking for?

  • Strong analytical mindset with attention to detail.
  • Ability to translate raw data into clear, decision-ready insights.
  • Security-conscious approach to data and infrastructure.
  • Comfortable working in fast-moving, crypto-native environments.
  • Proactive problem solver who can work independently.



Why Join Us?
