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.

Team/ Role Paragraph:

As part of Coinbase’s Enterprise Applications and Architecture organization, the CXCMSS (Customer Experience Channel Management and Shared Services) team is on the front lines of revolutionizing how we deliver exceptional support to millions of users globally. We are responsible for managing the delivery of work to agents across chat, phone, email, and social channels, empowering customer service agents across compliance and retail business units to operate at peak efficiency.

We design, build, and own platforms that prioritize the customer-first approach while driving agent productivity and maximizing automation. Our team thrives on innovation, creating scalable solutions that not only meet today’s needs but also anticipate the future of customer engagement.
