Software Engineer, Blockchain Platform (Network Enablement)

Details

At Coinbase we’re building the emerging on‑chain platform and the future global financial system. This role is on the Network team and focuses on integrating blockchain networks with internal services for day‑1 and non day‑1 assets, USDC expansion, and expanding crypto primitives. The team builds and maintains integrations with existing and emerging blockchains, owns protocol-level (EIP) functionality and a shared indexer, and supports Retail, Exchange, Institution, Base and Coinbase Wallet.

While many roles at Coinbase are remote-first, we are not remote-only: in-person participation is required throughout the year (team and company offsites are held multiple times annually). #LI-Remote
