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.
About the Team:
Our core mission is clear: Build platform services to empower high quality staking products for our retail and institutional customers. This way, people don’t just buy / sell crypto, they “earn dividend” on crypto, and in the meantime provides security and decentralization for underlying blockchain networks.
It’s backing the #3 largest revenue stream at Coinbase ($700M+ ARR) and the #2 revenue stream that’s not market fluctuation dependent.
This team's responsibility is to understand deep context across multiple top staking protocols and translate complex operations and state machines into simple and straightforward API for product teams at Coinbase.

- Collaborate with engineers, designers, product managers, and senior leadership to translate our vision into a tangible roadmap on a quarterly basis. Break down complex projects into smaller pieces and lead the iterative design and implementation process.
- Be a thoughtful technical voice within the team, aiding in diligent architectural decisions and fostering a culture of high-quality code and engineering processes.
- Work closely with our talent organization to identify and recruit exceptional engineers who align with Coinbase's culture and contribute to our products.
- Contribute to and take ownership of processes that drive engineering quality and meet our engineering SLAs.
What we look for in you (ie. job requirements):
- At least 7 years of experience in software engineering.
- At least 2 years of engineering management experience.
- 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 can be hands-on when needed – whether that’s writing/reviewing code or technical documents, participating in on-call rotations and leading incidents, or triaging/troubleshooting bugs.
- Your passion for building an open financial system that brings the world together drives you to excel in this role.
Nice to haves:
- Values: Embody Coinbase values (e.g. Clear communication, Act like an owner, Customer focus).
- Insistent on high operational excellence.
- Technical: Experienced in large scale high-throughput distributed systems and data pipelines.
- You have experience with Blockchains (such as Bitcoin, Ethereum etc.).
