Job Description
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.
The Financial Platform team is key to Coinbase’s mission to create an open financial system for the world. The Financial Platform team powers all trading flows & products at Coinbase, including hundreds of billions of dollars of transactions per year. In this role, you will lead the most-trusted company in crypto as we approach the upcoming bull run.

- Determine the vision and strategy for the platforms which power the entirety of Coinbase’s trading flows and products

- Prioritize the roadmap towards highest value to our customers, leveraging metrics to guide product development
- Consider new customer and business opportunities such as externalizing our APIs to the developer community
- Become an expert in financial and crypto products, performing competitive and data analyses to guide decision-making
What We Look For In You (ie. Job Requirements):
- 5+ years of product management experience
- Computer Science degree or Software Engineering experience
- Knowledge in financial products, including financial record keeping and Accounting pipelines
- Experience building robust, scalable solutions for fund movements, customer balances, and/or portfolio performance
- Demonstrated success leading business-critical systems in a fast-paced environment
- Ability to motivate a range of senior stakeholders including CFO, Accounting, Product & Engineering towards a common vision
Nice to Haves:
- Experience designing, implementing and executing automated financial controls
