Ready to be pushed beyond what you think you’re capable of?
At Coinbase, our mission is to increase economic freedom in the world. It’s a massive, ambitious opportunity that demands the best of us, every day, as we build the emerging onchain platform — and with it, the future global financial system.
To achieve our mission, we’re seeking a very specific candidate. We want someone who is passionate about our mission and who believes in the power of crypto and blockchain technology to update the financial system. We want someone who is eager to leave their mark on the world, who relishes the pressure and privilege of working with high caliber colleagues, and who actively seeks feedback to keep leveling up. We want someone who will run towards, not away from, solving the company’s hardest problems.
Our work culture is intense and isn’t for everyone. But if you want to build the future alongside others who excel in their disciplines and expect the same from you, there’s no better place to be.

- Add positive energy in every meeting, and make your coworkers feel included in every interaction.
What we look for in you:
- At least 8+ years of experience in software engineering
- You possess a strong understanding of what constitutes high-quality code and effective software engineering processes, creating an environment that fosters these principles.
- An execution-focused mindset, capable of navigating through ambiguity and delivering results.
- An ability to balance long-term strategic thinking with short-term planning.
- Experience in creating, delivering, and operating multi-tenanted, distributed systems at scale.
- You have delivered full stack projects.
- You are willing to manage engineers and eventually transition into a manager role.
Nice to haves:
