  • Collaborate with Coinbase product teams to reduce service disruptions and automate incident response
  • Proactively find and analyze reliability problems across our business units and stack, then design and implement software to create step-function improvements.
  • Educate, mentor and hold accountable the engineering team to improve the reliability of our systems and make reliability a core value of the Coinbase engineering culture.
What we look for in you (ie. job requirements):
  • You have at least 2+ years of software engineering experience

Nice to haves:
  • Experience designing and building reliable systems capable of handling high throughput and low latency
  • Experience with observability and monitoring systems such as Kibana, Datadog, etc.
  • Experience working in a highly regulated environment
  • Exposure to both NoSQL and SQL database technologies such as DynamoDB, MongoDB, PostgreSQL, AWS Aurora.
