Overview

At Coinbase, our mission is to increase economic freedom around the world, and we couldn’t do this without hiring the best people. We’re a group of hard-working overachievers who are deeply focused on building the future of finance and Web3 for our users across the globe, whether they’re trading, storing, staking or using crypto. Know those people who always lead the group project? That’s us.

There are a few things we look for across all hires we make at Coinbase, regardless of role or team. First, we look for candidates who will thrive in a culture like ours, where we default to trust, embrace feedback, and disrupt ourselves. Second, we expect all employees to commit to our mission-focused approach to our work. Most importantly, we seek people who are excited about crypto, because those are the folks who enjoy the intense moments in our sprint and recharge work culture. We’re a remote-first company looking to hire the absolute best talent all over the world.

Who you are:

  • You’ve got positive energy. You’re optimistic about the future and determined to get there.
  • You’re never tired of learning. You want to be a pro in bleeding edge tech like DeFi, NFTs, DAOs, and Web 3.0.
  • You appreciate direct communication. You’re both an active communicator and an eager listener – because let’s face it, you can’t have one without the other. You’re cool with candid feedback and see every setback as an opportunity to grow.
  • You can pivot on the fly. Crypto is constantly evolving, so our priorities do, too. What you worked on last month may not be what you work on today, and that excites you. You’re not looking for a boring job.
  • You have a “can do” attitude. Our teams create high-quality work on quick timelines. Owning a problem doesn’t scare you, but rather empowers you to take 100% responsibility for achieving our mission.
  • You want to be part of a winning team. We’re stronger together, and you’re a person who embraces being pushed out of your comfort zone.

Base’s mission is to build a global onchain economy that increases innovation, creativity, and economic freedom.

We believe that the onchain platform is the most important builder platform since the internet (“online”). We believe that the onchain platform should be open source, free to use, and globally available. And we believe that in order to make it really work, we need all hands on deck, working together to scale in a secure, decentralized, easy-to-use way.

At Base, we live by our Stay Based values: we do the right thing, work hard, stay optimistic, prioritize the team, and push creative boundaries—all while building the future of onchain. We value a Zone 3+ work ethic, where our team rises to the challenge, embraces hard weeks, and makes small to significant personal tradeoffs when necessary to drive impact and innovation.

Base is incubated within Coinbase and plans to progressively decentralize in the years ahead. We believe that decentralization is critical to creating an open, global cryptoeconomy that is accessible to everyone.

Base is built on Optimism’s open-source OP Stack. We’re joining as the second Core Dev team working on the OP Stack to ensure it’s a public good available to everyone; and contributing a portion of sequencer revenue to funding public goods.

Base is looking for a passionate Consumer Ecosystem Lead who will help us build the onchain creative future. You’ll work with the engineering, product, and creative teams to realize Base’s mission of building a global onchain economy. If you are excited by our mission, please apply and get in touch.

What you’ll be doing (ie. job duties):

  • Develop and execute strategic initiatives that position Base as the preferred network for creators, brands, developers and users.
  • Maintain productive relationships with partners, establishing shared KPIs and resolving business, policy and technical issues.
  • Provide recommendations for expansion opportunities that have a direct impact on product roadmaps and business goals.
  • Work cross functionally with key stakeholders to optimize builder programs and experiences.

What we look for in you (ie. job requirements):

  • 8+ years relevant experience in technology, crypto, investing or consulting.
  • An unrelenting passion for onchain media (e.g. social, games, creators, etc.) and a robust onchain resume
  • A results-driven mindset with humility and self-awareness.
  • Outstanding verbal and written communication skills.
  • Track record of driving positive partner experiences while properly setting expectations and holding difficult conversations.
  • Experience managing multiple complex projects across internal and external stakeholders through clear communication, strong analytical skills (qualitative and quantitative), and a constant focus on operational excellence.
  • Prior experience scaling a product, process, or idea to a developer community.
