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.
As a member of the team you will be responsible for developing and advocating for policy positions on the regulation of consumer facing digital asset products and services, and in particular, digital assets used as payment instruments. A successful candidate will have (1) experience responding to public consultations issued by financial/prudential regulators and global standard setters, (2) experience with a government agency/authority responsible for setting policies affecting payment systems and/or consumer protection; and (3) a firm understanding of how to work with development teams to build blockchain-based payment products and applications. Relevant knowledge areas include an understanding of cross-border/bank payment rails, wallet products (both custodial and non custodial), stablecoin design and uses, AML/KYC rules, and transaction settlement processes, particularly as they relate to tokenized assets.
What you’ll be doing (ie. job duties):
- Work with cross functional product/legal/policy teams to establish internal policy views on emergent regulatory issues
- Brief executive level audiences on the potential impact of new/proposed rules on products and practices
- Work with trade groups to establish consensus industry positions on alternative regulatory approaches
- Draft superbly written materials in support of regulatory consultations and engagements
- Organize and lead external engagements with regulators and standard setters
What we look for in you (ie. job requirements):
- Bachelor’s or non-US equivalent (required) + advanced degree in law, economics, or finance (preferred).
- Minimum of [6+] years of financial services regulatory experience
- Experience responding to regulatory consultations, or equivalent experience from the government side.
- Experience with a government agency/authority responsible for setting policies affecting payment systems and/or consumer protection.
- Firm understanding of blockchain-based technology, products, and services
- Demonstrated ability to manage cross-functional teams of subject matter experts
- You must be an exceptional communicator. You will be expected to produce original written work for both internal and external consumption, and efficiently brief senior level audiences on the content.
Nice to haves:
- Experience working as a regulatory economist or attorney advisor at a financial regulator or standard setting organization
