Senior Staff Software Engineer, AI Developer Experience at Coinbase

This role is designed for a heavyweight technical architect who is obsessed with the intersection of Generative AI and Developer Experience. It is a "Senior Staff" (Principal) level position, meaning you should have a track record of driving cross-organizational architectural shifts for thousands of engineers. You aren't just using Copilot; you are expected to build the autonomous agents and infrastructure that will fundamentally rewrite the software development lifecycle (SDLC). The compensation is highly competitive, reaching nearly $300k in base salary alone, plus equity and bonuses. While the role is remote-friendly within the USA, it is not "remote-only"—you should expect to travel for intense, in-person team offsites several times a year. This is a high-pressure, mission-driven environment that explicitly values "intensity" and is perfect for someone who wants to lead the industry in AI-native engineering standards. **You might be a good fit if you...** * Have deep experience with CI/CD, AWS/GCP, and container orchestration at massive scale. * Possess a strong, practical thesis on how LLMs and agents can automate testing, refactoring, and bug detection. * View internal engineers as "customers" and take a product-led approach to platform engineering. * Thrive in a high-performance culture that prioritizes speed, feedback, and solving "hard" problems.
