Senior Associate, Broker Dealer Operations

Overview

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 who is passionate about crypto and blockchain technology, eager to leave their mark, and ready to tackle the company's hardest problems with high-caliber colleagues. Our work culture is intense and isn't for everyone. If you want to build the future alongside others who excel, this is the 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 occur multiple times annually to foster collaboration and alignment. Attendance is expected and fully supported.

We are seeking a highly-skilled Senior Associate to join our Broker Dealer Operations team, responsible for the integrity, efficiency, and optimization of our daily trading lifecycle in a regulated environment.

This role is ideal for a meticulous, hands-on operator who wants to apply broker-dealer knowledge to build scalable processes at the intersection of traditional finance and the crypto economy. You will help ensure our operations are accurate, compliant, and ready for growth.
