Job Overview

Coinbase is looking for a privacy software engineer to help make privacy a reality in our products and internal services. This role is key to protecting customers and enhancing capabilities of teams across the company. You will be collaborating with teams to assess privacy risk, manage privacy vulnerabilities, and design services that enable us to better engage our customers about privacy and data protection.

We highly value individuals with intellectual curiosity and openness. We collaborate across the organization, helping our engineers think big and take risks while building a culture of diversity, positive energy, and blameless truth-seeking.

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

  • Develop and implement solutions to ensure privacy policies are correctly implemented (i.e. systems to ensure we process DSARs properly)
  • Analyze, design, and program software enhancements to mitigate privacy vulnerabilities and prevent potential future privacy risks
  • Use data anonymization, pseudonymization and encryption to develop systems that preserve and improve privacy protections, and advise on when each solution is appropriate
  • Collaborate with the risk team to perform regular privacy assessments of products and operational processes, and identify and mitigate those risks across the company
  • Provide technical structure to teams and work closely with management and stakeholders to define strategic roadmaps
  • Manage individual project priorities, deadlines, and deliverables with your technical expertise
  • Mentor and train other team members on design techniques and coding standards
  • Design and implement foundational digital asset infrastructure components used by engineering teams in production
  • Write high quality, well tested code to meet the needs of your customers

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

  • You have at least 8 years of experience in software engineering
  • You’ve experienced architecting and developing solutions to ambiguous problems with significant impact
  • Experience in uplevelling junior engineers via processes and setting a high bar for them to follow
  • You know what high quality code — and software engineering processes — look like and know how to foster an environment that creates them
  • You’re passionate about building a platform for engineering and security customers

Nice to haves:

  • Familiarity with working in rapid growth environments
  • Experience working in a Security department identifying and mitigating risks through software systems
  • Experience working in a highly regulated environment
  • You’ve built financial, high reliability, or security systems
