Product Manager II (Financial Platform - Payments)

Details

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.

The Financial Platform team is key to Coinbase’s mission to create an open financial system for the world. The Financial Platform team powers all trading flows & products at Coinbase, including hundreds of billions of dollars of transactions per year. In this role, you will lead the most-trusted company in crypto as we approach the upcoming bull run.

We are looking for an entrepreneurial, self-motivated product manager who thrives in a fast-paced startup environment. You have experience with financial products including customer financial records, and you’ve led these products at scale. You are comfortable dealing with ambiguity, able to think through complex challenges, and able to align cross-functional teams effectively to launch products.
