Job Description

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.

We are looking for an experienced Engineering Manager to lead the Ledger team within the Product Foundations - Platform Product Group. Ledger is one of the core services for Coinbase, responsible for processing transactions and managing the funds of our users. As one of Coinbase's most mission-critical services, Ledger sits at the core of our platform, processing billions in transactions and securing the assets of millions of users. Today, our scale and complexity of operations have far surpassed the original design of Ledger and fund management systems. This presents a rare and exciting opportunity to rearchitect foundational infrastructure that will shape Coinbase's success for the next decade.

What you’ll be doing (ie. job duties):

Build and manage engineering teams, to guide the development of features, services, and infrastructure.
Coach your direct reports to have a positive impact on the organization and support their career growth.
Implement the multi-year strategy for our team and collaborate with engineers, designers, product managers and senior leadership to turn our vision into a tangible roadmap every quarter.
Be a thoughtful technical voice within the team, aiding in diligent architectural decisions and fostering a culture of high-quality code and engineering processes.
Collaborate with Product and Engineering teams to ensure successful delivery and operation of multi-tenanted, distributed systems at scale.
Work closely with our talent organization to identify and recruit exceptional engineers who align with Coinbase's culture and will help the team scale.
Contribute to and take ownership of processes that drive engineering quality and meet our engineering SLAs.

What We Look For In You (ie. Job Requirements):

At least 7 years of experience in software engineering.
At least 2 years of engineering management experience.
You possess a strong understanding of what constitutes high-quality code and effective engineering practices.
An execution-focused mindset, capable of navigating through ambiguity and delivering results.
An ability to balance long-term strategic thinking with short-term planning.
Experience in creating, delivering, and operating multi-tenanted, distributed systems at scale.
You can be hands-on when needed – whether that’s writing/reviewing code or technical documents, participating in on-call rotations and leading incidents, or triaging/troubleshooting bugs.
Demonstrates the ability to responsibly use generative AI tools and copilots (e.g., LibreChat, 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.
