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.
We are looking for a Staff Machine Learning Platform Engineer to join our Machine Learning Platform team. The team builds the foundational components for training and serving ML models at Coinbase. Our platform is used to combat fraud, personalize user experiences, and to analyze blockchains. We are a lean team, so you will get the opportunity to apply your software engineering skills across all aspects of building ML at scale, including stream processing, distributed training, and highly available online services.
What you’ll be doing (ie. job duties):
- Lead the design of the next generation of our Machine Learning platform, to accelerate innovation at Coinbase.
- Form a deep understanding of our Machine Learning Engineers’ needs and our current capabilities and gaps.
- Mentor our talented junior engineers on how to build high quality software, and take their skills to the next level.
- Continually raise our engineering standards to maintain high-availability and low-latency for our ML inference infrastructure that runs both predictive ML models and LLMs.
- Optimize ultra-low latency streaming pipelines to give our ML models the freshest and highest quality data.
- Collaborate across the industry and be a thought leader in the field of MLOps.
- Evangelize state-of-the-art practices on building high-performance distributed training jobs that process large volumes of data.
What we look for in you (ie. job requirements):
- 8+ yrs of industry experience as a Software Engineer.
- You have a deep understanding of distributed systems.
- You lead by example through high quality code and excellent communication skills.
- You have a great sense of design, and can bring clarity to complex technical requirements.
- You treat other engineers as a customer, and have an obsessive focus on delivering them a seamless experience.
- You have a mastery of the fundamentals, such that you can quickly jump between many varied technologies and still operate at a high level.
Nice to Have:
- Experience building ML models and working with ML systems.
- Experience working on a platform team, and building developer tooling.
- Experience with the technologies we use (Python, Golang, Ray, Tecton, Spark, Airflow, Databricks, Snowflake, and DynamoDB).
