Software Engineer, Frontend - UI Systems Team

Join Coinbase

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.

About the Team: Developer Experience (DevX) is responsible for making sure all engineers at Coinbase build high-quality products while being productive and engaged. We do this by providing infrastructure, libraries, frameworks, and tooling to make it easier and faster to build high quality applications.

Within Developer Experience, we organize into "pods" that focus on different specializations. The "UI Systems" guild builds a state-of-the-art design system and tooling to guide engineers towards building high quality, consistent, delightful, and accessible UIs for both web and mobile. The team builds UI components for mobile and web in TypeScript and based on React and React Native. We use Linaria for styling, Percy for visual regression testing, Storybook for developing and testing components in isolation, and Docusaurus for our documentation. We integrate heavily with Figma to make the designer/developer collaboration smoother.

• You have at least 2+ years of experience in developing web apps and shipping user-facing features with JavaScript and modern, component-based JS frameworks like React.
