Kalshi is hiring a GTA VI researcher for a contract worth up to $135,000, combining a launch-night playthrough with livestreaming and economic research. The prediction-market company wants an experienced creator to finish the story, investigate how money moves in Leonida and examine the release’s effect on American working life.
How the $135,000 Offer Works
The job listing specifies a fixed project fee of $100,000-$120,000 plus a $15,000 project completion fee. That puts potential total compensation at $115,000-$135,000. The figure describes project pay, rather than an annual salary.
Kalshi lists the position as a remote contract within its growth department. It does not state how long the contract will run.
Research Inside and Outside Leonida
The assignment begins at midnight on November 19, GTA VI’s launch date. The successful applicant must stream the entire story playthrough on Twitch or YouTube with their camera on. Kalshi explicitly allows sleep and time outside, leaving the player to progress at their own pace.
The research brief extends beyond reaching the credits. Kalshi wants weekly reports on Leonida’s economy, a presentation of the findings and money-making strategies supported by spreadsheet analysis.
Outside the game, the researcher must study launch-week food-delivery activity, workplace absences and lost US productivity.
Who Can Apply
Kalshi’s requirements include:
- Being at least 18 years old.
- At least 10 years of gaming experience.
- At least three years of streaming experience and an existing channel.
- A personal setup covering equipment, internet access and software.
The company also wants someone who can explain how a game system works, optimize it and challenge conventional strategies with evidence. Applicants can submit their details through Kalshi’s application portal.
