Coinbase is on a mission to increase economic freedom for more than 1 billion people.
The Role

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 an experienced Engineering Manager to lead the Automation team within the Institutional product group. This is an exciting opportunity to touch every part of the Institutional crypto and fiat asset movement journey. You will get to build a team and a charter from scratch with rapid expansion opportunities. 

What you’ll be doing (ie. job duties):
  • Build and manage engineering teams, to guide the development of features, services, and infrastructure
  • Coach your direct reports to have a positive impact on the organisation and support their career growth.
  • 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. Collaborate with Product and Engineering teams to ensure successful delivery and operation of multi-tenanted, distributed systems at scale.
  • 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): To be completed by all business teams except Eng. 

  • Hire and lead a team of passionate engineers
  • Deliver solutions to increase business efficiency
  • Deliver solutions to reduce risk
  • Establishing team mechanisms and norms for effective and efficient execution
  • Collaborating with cross functional partners on the product and operational strategies
  • Coordinating with QA to triage incoming issues
  • Monitoring and triaging issues with our downstream partners
  • Establishing operating metrics and keeping them met

Nice to haves:

  • Fiat payments expertise
