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.

We’re seeking a candidate passionate about our mission and the power of crypto and blockchain technology to update the financial system. The ideal candidate will be eager to leave their mark, relish challenges, and actively seek feedback to level up. They will run towards, not away from, solving the company’s hardest problems.

Coinbase stores more digital currency than any company in the world, making us a top tier target on the internet. Security is core to our mission and has been a key competitive differentiator for us as we scale worldwide. Building and running a security compliance program that protects data and assets is essential to scaling, enabling customer, regulator, auditor, and stakeholder trust. If you love working with fast‑moving companies to grow and scale security compliance engines and create positive change across the business, we’d like to speak with you about joining our team.

• Build close relationships with stakeholder teams including Security, IT, Infrastructure, Engineering, Data, and Finance to advise on SOX requirements and ensure excellence in control ownership

• Develop creative solutions to prove risk mitigation and solve for complex audit problems faced by the crypto industry
• Identify opportunities to address systemic program challenges, recommend solutions and drive efficiency through AI and automation

Qualifications

• Minimum of 5+ years of security/IT compliance or equivalent experience
• Strong knowledge and hands‑on experience in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting, SOX 404 frameworks, and testing to support compliance
• Prior experience at a Big 4 accounting firm
• Experience leading compliance initiatives from start to finish
• Proven understanding and audit experience of cloud technologies; AWS preferred
• Ability to effectively and autonomously accomplish outcomes across cross‑functional teams in ambiguous situations with minimal supervision
• Strong oral and written communication skills
• Ability to multitask, direct cross‑functional work, and hold others accountable to committed deadlines in a fast‑paced environment
• Ability to communicate with technical and non‑technical stakeholders to align on shared outcomes
