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.

The Consumer Foundations team is dedicated to ensuring product quality across the retail app by providing critical insight into reliability and performance data, and leveraging AI to identify and improve existing services. Our mission is to make Coinbase the most dependable crypto platform in the world, and to cultivate and grow engineering practices to ensure long term success.

As a Software Engineer on the Consumer Foundations team, you will partner with engineers across the retail team to reach these goals. This is a unique opportunity to define and drive a company-wide quality strategy while working critical product teams used by millions of users around the world.

What you'll be doing:

• Develop and maintain dashboards and tools to identify and drive improvements to key quality metrics.

• Partner with engineering teams to tackle key reliability/performance initiatives.

• Advocate for quality culture improvements by improving testing, observability and tech debt management.

• Partner with PM, Design, and other functions to align product strategy with long-term technical bets and roadmap.

• Elevate engineering quality and promote best practices through design review, code review guidance, and process improvements.

• Leading the adoption of AI-driven development practices

What we look for in you:

• 5+ years of software development experience with experience writing performant, large scale distributed systems

• Strong software engineering background (experience with Python, Java, JavaScript, Go, or similar).

• Experience with observability, debugging, and profiling to improve software reliability and performance.

• Passion for improving product experience and engineering hygiene.

• Ability to collaborate with teams across the company and influence engineering culture.

• Solving complex platform-level challenges

• Driving engineering standards across the organization.

• Demonstrates the ability to responsibly use generative AI tools and copilots (e.g., Libre Chat, Gemini, Glean) in daily workflows, continuously learn as tools evolve, and apply human-in-the-loop practices to deliver business-ready outputs and drive measurable improvements in efficiency, cost, and quality.

Nice to haves:

• Experience with Blockchain technology (such as Bitcoin, Ethereum etc)

• Crypto-forward experience, including familiarity with onchain activity
