Overview

Join Coinbase as a Staff Software Engineer to lead critical cryptographic initiatives and ensure global regulatory compliance. Work remotely from Israel with a competitive salary and a focus on high-impact projects. Coinbase is a remote-first, but not remote-only company. Expect to get together quarterly for intense in-person working sessions called β€œsurges.”

  • β€’Build alignment and secure commitment from cross-functional partners across Security, Product, and Policy to drive flawless execution.

Required Skills and Experience

  • β€’8+ years of experience in software engineering with demonstrated success building highly available, distributed systems.
  • β€’Deep domain expertise in applied cryptography, Key Management Systems (KMS), or Hardware Security Modules (HSMs), with proven experience safely implementing cryptographic protocols (Multi-Party Computation experience strongly preferred).
  • β€’Extensive programming experience in systems languages such as Golang, Java, C++, or Rust, with ability to operate in a Golang-heavy environment.
  • β€’Proven track record operating Tier-0 or highly critical infrastructure where system resilience, security, and low latency are absolute prerequisites.
  • β€’Demonstrated experience leading a team's technical strategy, architecture, and deliverables for large-scale projects, including navigating complex regulatory requirements and translating them into robust engineering solutions.
  • β€’Utilizes generative AI responsibly, maintaining human oversight to deliver business-ready outputs and drive measurable improvements in workflow efficiency, cost, and quality.
