Summary Generated by Built In
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.
While many roles at Coinbase are remote-first, we are not remote-only. In-person participation is required throughout the year. Team and company-wide offsites are held multiple times annually to foster collaboration, connection, and alignment. Attendance is expected and fully supported.
Act as a force multiplier for the COO by ensuring priorities are advanced, time is focused on the highest-impact areas, and voice is amplified internally and externally. Lead critical initiatives, manage special projects, and orchestrate COO responsibilities & engagements so she can operate at peak effectiveness.
What you'll be doing (ie. job duties):
  • Lead special projects for areas the COO personally oversees.
  • Serve as a swiss army knife for solving any problem.
  • Prep the COO for all key engagements and decisions, and when needed act as her stand-in.
  • Proactively resolve problems, and deal with issues before they get to COO.
  • Develop compelling content and narratives for the COO for internal and external consumption (company presentations, investors presentations, external interviews and appearances, key meetings etc.).
  • Act as a trusted advisor to the COO and leadership, elevating insights and analysis on company operations, key management decisions and other areas.

What we look for in you (ie. job requirements):
  • BA / BS degree or equivalent practical experience
  • 4+ years of experience in management consulting and/or in a business operations, strategy or product role at a high growth technology company
  • Strong analytical, and problem solving and interpersonal skills
  • Exceptional communication skills (written and verbal)
  • Comfort working in a high growth, constantly changing environment

Nice to haves:
  • Entrepreneurial experience or at an earlier stage high growth technology company
  • Demonstrated interest in crypto and a passion for advancing our mission
