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.

Our Risk team is at the center of making Coinbase the most trusted name in Crypto. You’ll be working with a cross functional group of data scientists, machine learning engineers, risk analysts, and designers to design systems and experiences to make sure every Coinbase user is secure, transaction is safe, and experience is delightful. You’ll play a core part in ensuring all of Coinbase products can launch and scale safely.

We are looking for an entrepreneurial, self-motivated Senior Product Manager who thrives in a fast-paced startup environment. You have experience developing solutions leveraging machine learning models and you’ve led these products at scale. You are comfortable dealing with ambiguity, able to think through complex and dynamic challenges, and able to align cross-functional teams effectively to launch products.

Job Duties:

• Determine the vision and strategy for systems that optimize risk management for Coinbase’s business
• Build robust, scalable, and resilient solutions that keep Coinbase in compliance with a variety of financial regulations
• Define the roadmap to scale to 1B users worldwide and steer execution on that vision
• Prioritize the roadmap towards highest value to our customers, leveraging metrics to guide product development
• Consider new customer and business opportunities, such as externalizing our APIs to the developer community
• Become an expert in financial and crypto products, performing competitive and data analyses to guide decision-making

Job Requirements:

• 6–10+ years of product management experience, including Risk and/or Fraud domain experience
• An entrepreneurial mindset with the ability to succeed in a fast-paced environment
• Knowledge in financial products, including risk management or compliance
• Experience building robust and scalable data products for automating and optimizing business processes
• Demonstrated success leading business-critical systems in a global, fast-paced environment
• Ability to motivate a range of senior stakeholders including Chief Financial Officer, Chief Compliance Officer, Business Operations, Customer Experience, Product & Engineering towards a common vision

Nice to Haves:

• Computer Science degree or Software Engineering experience
• Hands-on experience building machine learning models
• Experience designing and implementing risk or fraud controls
• Experience leading large, cross-functional business transformation initiatives
• Knowledge of data platforms (data warehouses, experimentation, model development, etc) and distributed systems
