Senior Software Engineer - Stablecoin Payments

Coinbase's Stablecoin Payments team is developing the core infrastructure for stablecoin-based payments—enabling fast, secure, and scalable money movement worldwide. As a senior software engineer, you'll design and scale systems that power deposits, withdrawals, and third-party payments across Coinbase products like Retail, Exchange, Prime, and Custody. You'll lead high-impact projects, integrate new blockchains, and work closely with cross-functional teams to bring stablecoin utility to businesses of all sizes.

What You'll Be Doing:

  • Design, build, and maintain backend systems and infrastructure that power stablecoin pay-ins, payouts, deposits, and withdrawals.
  • Serve as the directly responsible individual (DRI) for key projects, driving them from design to production with high accountability.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams—including product, design, infrastructure, and compliance—to deliver robust and scalable solutions.
  • Work closely with teams across Coinbase (e.g., CDP Payments API, Onramp APIs, CoinBiz) to integrate stablecoin functionality into core products.
  • Help build internal and external APIs that make it easy for businesses and partners to leverage stablecoin-powered money movement.
  • Identify and address performance, scalability, and reliability challenges across systems.
  • Mentor junior engineers and contribute to building a strong, inclusive, and high-performing engineering culture.
  • Stay up to date on the evolving crypto ecosystem, identifying opportunities to improve utility, adoption, and innovation in stablecoin infrastructure.

What We Look For In You:

  • Minimum 5 years of experience in software engineering.
  • Proven experience building and operating large-scale backend systems, ideally in fintech, payments, or crypto.
  • Strong proficiency in backend technologies (e.g., Go, Java, or similar) and cloud infrastructure (e.g., AWS, GCP).
  • Deep understanding of distributed systems, APIs, and system design.
  • Experience working with crypto or blockchain technologies is a strong plus—but not required.
  • A product-minded approach to engineering—you care about the "why" behind what you build.
  • Strong ownership mindset with the ability to drive projects end-to-end as a DRI.
  • Collaborative spirit and ability to work cross-functionally with product, design, and engineering teams.
  • Enthusiasm for building foundational technology in a fast-moving, high-impact space.

Nice to haves:

  • Prior experience working with stablecoins, DeFi protocols, or on-chain payments.
  • Familiarity with smart contract platforms (e.g., Ethereum, Solana, Base) and related developer tools.
  • Contributions to open-source crypto or blockchain projects.
  • Experience building multi-chain or cross-chain applications.
  • Knowledge of regulatory or compliance considerations in crypto payments.
  • Interest in or experience with tokenomics, financial primitives, or digital asset infrastructure.
  • Previous experience in a startup or hyper-growth environment where you had to wear multiple hats.
