Senior Software Engineer - Data Platform at Coinbase

This role is for a backend specialist with at least five years of experience who has a deep understanding of data infrastructure and large-scale pipeline orchestration. You should be highly proficient in Go, Python, or Java and comfortable building tools that manage complex data storage and real-time streaming services. **What makes it worth a look...** The base salary is strong, topping out at $218,900 plus equity and performance bonuses. While the culture is famously high-pressure and intense, you get to work on mission-critical global financial infrastructure with a fully remote setup that still prioritizes in-person connection through multiple annual offsites. **You might be a good fit if you...** * Have professional experience managing Airflow, Kafka, and Spark environments. * Can build internal SDKs and self-service tools for other engineering teams to use. * Understand the nuances of query federation, caching, and columnar data storage. * Are comfortable with the transparency and high expectations of a mission-driven crypto platform.
