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.

Coinbase is hiring! We are looking for an experienced Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) to join the IT Operations Corporate Engineering team to build and scale our identity and access management tooling. A successful candidate will have demonstrated previous success in similar role(s) in rapidly growing, security-first environments. The right person is passionate about infrastructure as code, open source tooling, automation, and managing modern cloud identity providers. 

What You’ll Be Doing:

  • Engage in a dynamic role that combines traditional operations responsibilities and active contributions to the development and deployment of cloud-native applications, fostering a DevOps culture that emphasizes collaboration and automation
  • Partner across Coinbase to design, implement, and maintain performant, reliable, and secure system architectures
  • Provide corporate IAM and DevOps tooling subject matter expertise to adjacent IT, Security, and Engineering teams
  • Implement automation tooling and scripts to eliminate manual, repetitive tasks and reduce inefficiencies in system operations
  • Create comprehensive documentation and runbooks that detail system configurations, operational procedures, and troubleshooting steps across system lifecycle
  • Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines for integrating changes and deploying to production in progressively tested environments
  • Deliver configurations and maintain state using configuration management tools
  • Facilitate incident response, conduct root cause analysis, and blameless retrospectives
  • Define metrics and bolster monitoring/observability across corporate IAM systems
  • Participate in regular on-call rotation to ensure 24x7 uptime for critical systems

What We Look For In You: 

  • 5+ years of experience building, iterating upon, and maintaining corporate IAM systems
  • 5+ years of experience with operational procedures and application development
  • Deep domain-knowledge with prominent cloud identity provider(s): Okta, Duo, Google Workspace, Azure AD, Ping, etc.
  • Demonstrated success developing and implementing toolings that solves problems related to: identity lifecycle and provisioning, SSO, MFA, ABAC, RBAC, directory services, zero trust networking, PAM, PIM, and secrets management
  • Experience configuring and implementing modern open source tooling such as: Terraform, Ansible, Kubernetes, Docker
  • Fluency in a modern programming language (Golang, Python, Ruby, Java, C# etc.)
  • Strong experience using and managing AWS, GCP, Azure, or other cloud environment with IaC
  • Strong understanding of CI/CD workflows, automation frameworks, and best practices
  • Clear communication—demonstrate ability to explain technical concepts simply
  • Self starter—possess a continuous learning mindset
  • Demonstrate critical thinking under pressure

Nice to Haves:

  • Experience with open source workflows (Temporal) to streamline complex application orchestration.
  • Experience with graph databases (Neo4j, Neptune, etc.) is a plus, and able to manage complex data relationships effectively
