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.
This role is for an experienced fullstack engineer to work on onchain projects within our institutional product group, including both 0-1 product development as well as building off of existing products. This is a lean team that’s operating as a startup within Coinbase and looking to find product market fit for new onchain products. In this role, you will work across the stack (frontend, smart contracts, backend) to solve unique, large scale, highly complex technical problems.
What you’ll be doing (ie. job duties): To be completed by all business teams except Eng.
- Develop and maintain highly interactive, responsive, and user friendly frontend applications for onchain products.
- Design, develop, and optimize smart contracts using Solidity to enable new onchain products and features.
- Integrate onchain products and components with existing Coinbase backend services to solve unique challenges such as compliance and data indexing.
- Rapidly prototype new onchain experiences to gain early feedback.
- Troubleshoot and debug complex fullstack issues, ensuring performance, stability, reliability, and security.
What we look for in you (ie. job requirements): To be completed by all business teams except Eng.
- You have at least 5 years of experience in software engineering, with a strong focus in shipping fullstack features with onchain components.
- You have experience in developing fullstack web applications and shipping user-facing features with JavaScript and modern js frameworks like React and NextJS.
- You have a strong understanding of Solidity and experience with developing smart contracts for EVM-compatible blockchains.
- You’re familiar with current trends and best practices in frontend architecture and dapp development, including security, performance, and usability.
- You’re familiar with product and design life cycles, and collaborate closely with designers, engineers, and product managers.
- You write high quality, well tested and maintainable code.
- You are proficient in JavaScript, TypeScript, HTML, CSS, and Solidity; familiarity with Go a plus.
Nice to haves:
- You have gone through a rapid growth in your company (from startup to mid-size).
- You have contributed to open source crypto projects.
- You’ve worked with Golang, Docker, Postgres, MongoDB or AWS.
- You’ve built financial, high reliability or security systems.
