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're looking for a Principal Recruiter to support high-priority hiring for Finance. Our world class recruiting team builds the foundation of our success by finding extraordinary people that share our vision. In this role you’ll find yourself partnering directly with senior leadership and contributing to the evolution of our hiring strategy.

What you’ll be doing (ie. job duties):

  • Own end-to-end recruiting for senior and niche roles across the Finance team
  • Partner with Finance leadership to deeply understand team goals, role requirements, and the broader ecosystem context.
  • Build and manage a full-funnel recruiting process that balances velocity, quality, and candidate experience.
  • Identify and engage with top talent for Finance globally. 
  • Influence and advise hiring teams with data-driven insights and talent market context.
  • Contribute to broader talent strategy efforts, including pipeline diversity, interview loop calibration, and operational excellence 

What we look for in you (ie. job requirements):

  • 8+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience, with 2+ years in a principal / lead-level or leadership capacity
  • Previous experience supporting business operations, finance, corporate or business recruiting. 
  • Proven track record of identifying and closing difficult to attract top candidates. 
  • Experience building out recruiting processes in global markets. 
  • Deep experience partnering with finance teams at fast-paced tech companies or startups.
  • Proven ability to source and close exceptional talent, especially for highly competitive or unstructured roles.
  • A strategic mindset and a builder mentality - you seek out leverage, iterate quickly, and care about impact over process - 0 ->1 excites you!
  • Excellent communication, influence, and relationship-building skills up and down the organization.

Sound exciting? Let's work together.
