Engineering Manager, Blockchain Platform

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.

This role would be responsible for leading the day to day cadence of the team - defining strategic roadmaps, mastering daily operations, acting as the quarterback during high-severity incidents, and upholding the high talent bar that we expect at Coinbase. You will inspire the team to think outside the box, ideate around exciting new technologies and initiatives, and drive the team forward. You will work closely with cross-functional teams and partners to prioritize features and initiatives, and act as coach for your engineers as you build a high-performing team.

This is one of the most visible and business-critical engineering platforms at Coinbase. Joining the team means leading engineers who solve some of the hardest problems in distributed systems, scalability, and operational excellence—while directly shaping the foundation of the global crypto economy.
