Lead Backend Software Engineer, Risk Platform

At Coinbase, we are driven by a mission to enhance economic freedom globally. This is an enormous and ambitious goal that requires our utmost dedication as we construct the emerging on-chain platform and shape the future of the global financial system. We are seeking a passionate individual who believes in the transformative potential of cryptocurrency and blockchain technology for the financial sector. Our ideal candidate embraces challenges, welcomes feedback for continuous improvement, and is eager to tackle our company's most complex issues. We pride ourselves on our intense work culture; it may not be suitable for everyone. However, if you're looking to build the future alongside talented professionals who uphold high standards, this is the place for you. Although many roles at Coinbase offer remote-first arrangements, we are not exclusively remote. In-person engagement throughout the year is essential, as we host team and company-wide offsite events several times a year to encourage collaboration and alignment. We're excited to welcome a Senior Staff Software Engineer to our Platform Product Group, whose mission is to create a trusted, scalable, and compliant framework that maximizes velocity, efficiency, and quality. By joining us, you will help develop the essential infrastructure that enables multiple products and teams at Coinbase to deliver a consistent and top-notch user experience. Our Risk engineering team plays a crucial role in managing the financial threats that impact both our business and our users. As a member of this team, I will continue to build the platform and vital services that mitigate fraudulent activities at scale and enhance the detection of legitimate user patterns. If you are looking for an opportunity that combines technical excellence with a mission-driven approach, I encourage you to apply.
