Senior Site Reliability Engineer - Identity Platform

Remote

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.

Coinbase is hiring! We are looking for an experienced Senior 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.

  • 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
  • Mentor and develop team members across the IT organization

  • 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

What we look for in you (ie. job requirements): To be completed by all business teams except Eng. 

  • 5+ years of experience building, iterating upon, and maintaining corporate IAM systems
  • Domain expertise with prominent cloud identity providers (Okta, Duo, Google Workspace, Azure AD, Ping Identity)

  • 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:

  • You are a thought leader in the industry and contribute to open-source projects
  • Experience with Graph Databases (AWS Neptune, Neo4J)
