Details

Coinbase is hiring a Staff Software Engineer to join its Consumer Agentic Finance team. The team is building a financial agent that monitors users' money and the markets, answers questions about portfolios, and trades on users' behalf. As the frontend technical lead, you will set the direction for the interfaces that bring this agent to users.

Coinbase is a remote-first, but not remote-only, company. Employees are expected to meet quarterly for in-person working sessions called “surges.”

Responsibilities

Own frontend experiences for the user's agent across mobile and web, including the conversational interface, trading ideas experience, and entry points across the application.
Build real-time, streaming interfaces for AI-driven advice, one-tap trade approvals, and autonomous execution while keeping the agent's reasoning understandable.
Set frontend architecture and technical direction across agentic surfaces, including streaming state, real-time market data, and conversational user experience.
Raise engineering standards through design reviews, technical standards, and mentorship.
Shape agent behavior through prompt engineering, evaluations, and conversation analysis.
Partner with design, backend engineering, and the registered investment adviser to take features from concept to launch within regulatory guardrails.

Requirements

8+ years of professional engineering experience shipping consumer-facing products at scale.
Expert-level mobile experience with React Native and native iOS development using Swift or Android development using Kotlin. Experience across both platforms is a plus.
Proficiency in TypeScript and React.
Demonstrated technical leadership of frontend architecture across multiple product areas or a platform, including state management, API integration patterns, and performance improvements that measurably improved latency or reliability.
Experience building production systems with large language models, including agentic systems, tool calling, streaming responses, or conversational interfaces.
Proven ability to drive projects from zero to production with minimal oversight while owning product and technical decisions.
Backend experience, preferably with Go, is a plus.
Familiarity with crypto, trading, or financial products is a plus.
Interest in improving productivity and code quality through the latest AI-driven coding practices.

Compensation

The annual base salary range is $218,025–$256,500 USD, excluding equity and bonus. Total compensation may also include equity, bonus eligibility, and medical, dental, vision, and 401(k) benefits.

Position ID: P79042.

Candidates may submit a maximum of three applications within a six-month period.
