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.

Ourwork culture (https://www.coinbase.com/mission) 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.

The mission of the Platform Product Group engineers is to build a trusted, scalable and compliant platform to operate with speed, efficiency and quality. Our teams build and maintain the platforms critical to the existence of Coinbase.

• Build tooling and automation to make management of our Kubernetes clusters easy and reliable.

• Build tooling and automation to improve the developer experience of working with Kubernetes for all developers.

• Operationalize our Kubernetes platform so that it continues to be automated and self-healing to prevent unnecessary oncall burden.

• Support our customers as they operate critical staking services for Coinbase in Kubernetes

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

• You have at least 5+ years of software engineering experience and experience with Kubernetes, or similar compute orchestration systems (e.g. mesos, nomad)

• Strong AWS and/or GCP infrastructure knowledge

• Ability to build backend services in addition to infrastructure

• Ability to hold a high bar for quality, is a self starter, and has strong interpersonal skills

• Strong problem solving skills and ability to identify problems, determine their root cause, and see them through to solution
