Job summary

Coinbase is seeking a Payments Infrastructure PM to own CDP's payments roadmap, including instant funding rails and global fiat expansion. You will partner with enterprise customers and internal teams to translate roadmaps into live customer solutions.

You will lead cross-functional teams across product, engineering, and risk to ensure reliable, scalable payments that fuel growth while navigating regulatory constraints and risk controls.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of product management experience on payments, money movement, or fintech infrastructure products at production scale.
• Demonstrated proficiency in fiat payment rails, including ledgering and settlement mechanisms.
• Experience shipping API-first products where developers are the customer, with the technical depth to earn engineering's trust on tradeoffs.
• Demonstrated ability to operate across compliance, risk, and legal constraints and turn them into product surfaces rather than blockers.

Responsibilities

The Coinbase Developer Platform (CDP) is building crypto infrastructure at scale for any business, anywhere. Payments Infrastructure is the layer that makes that volume possible: a unified, intent-based money movement layer across any asset, any rail, any geo. As the Payments Infrastructure PM, you will own the roadmap behind CDP's payments volume growth: instant funding rails, global fiat expansion, and a second revenue surface in payments financing.

What you'll do:

• Own the Payments Infrastructure roadmap end to end: routing across fiat and crypto rails, payment methods, risk and compliance checks, ledgering and settlement, and the observability and ops tooling that keeps it running 24/7.
• Ship the instant funding stack across rails, using risk-underwritten credit to deliver instant experiences where rails alone cannot.
• Drive global expansion: payments in new countries and asset expansion beyond stablecoins.
• Partner directly with enterprise customers and internal product teams to convert roadmap into live customers.

Required Skills and Experience

• 5+ years of product management experience on payments, money movement, or fintech infrastructure products at production scale.
• Demonstrated proficiency in fiat payment rails, including a strong grasp of ledgering, and settlement mechanisms.
• Experience shipping API-first products where developers are the customer, with the technical depth to earn engineering's trust on tradeoffs.
• Demonstrated ability to operate across compliance, risk, and legal constraints and turn them into product surfaces rather than blockers.
