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.

While many roles at Coinbase are remote-first, we are not remote-only. In-person participation is required throughout the year. Team and company-wide offsites are held multiple times annually to foster collaboration, connection, and alignment. Attendance is expected and fully supported.

The Finance Transformation team is a center of excellence that powers Coinbase's mission by building a scalable, efficient, and compliant finance function. We partner with leaders across the Finance organization to drive process automation, system optimization, and strategic reengineering. Our work is critical to enabling the company to navigate rapid growth and the complexities of the crypto economy.

Manage Senior Stakeholders: Partner directly with senior leaders across Accounting, FP&A, Tax, Procurement and Treasury to develop, prioritize, and manage a portfolio of high-priority initiatives, communicating clearly on progress, risks, and timelines.

Lead & Mentor: Lead and mentor a team of transformation professionals, fostering a collaborative, innovative, and high-performance culture aligned with Coinbase values.

Bridge Business and Tech: Collaborate closely with Enterprise Applications and Data Science and Analytics teams to define the future-state finance technology landscape and ensure your roadmap aligns with the broader technical architecture.
