Coinbase has built the world's leading compliant cryptocurrency platform serving over 73 million accounts in more than 100 countries. With multiple successful products, and our vocal advocacy for blockchain technology, we have played a major part in mainstream awareness and adoption of cryptocurrency. We are proud to offer an entire suite of products that are helping build the cryptoeconomy and increase economic freedom around the world.

There are a few things we look for across all hires we make at Coinbase, regardless of role or team. First, we look for signals that a candidate will thrive in a culture like ours, where we default to trust, embrace feedback, disrupt ourselves, and expect sustained high performance because we play as a championship team. Second, we expect all employees to commit to our mission-focused approach to our work. Finally, we seek people with the desire and capacity to build and share expertise in the frontier technologies of crypto and blockchain, in whatever way is most relevant to their role.

Coinbase stores more digital currency than any company in the world, making us prime target on the internet. Security is core to our mission and has been a key competitive differentiator for us as we scale worldwide. Crucial to scaling is building and running a security compliance program that reflects how we protect the data and assets in our care, to open the doors with customers, regulators, auditors, and other external stakeholders. If you love working with fast paced companies to build security compliance engines from the ground up and create positive change across the business, we’d like to speak with you about joining our team.

  • Monitor evolution and changes in EMEA and international security standards and guidance, advise team and stakeholders on impact and drive towards meeting requirements
  • Serve as one of the primary security touchpoints with EMEA regulatory bodies; respond to requests, assist with license support and exams as needed
  • Conduct periodic monitoring and testing across Coinbase’s security and technology requirements
  • Work with control owners internally to internalize their roles and responsibilities and maintain their control documentation
  • Assist with collecting and maintaining evidence for various compliance audits for external assessors and auditors, working within the Coinbase GRC tool
  • Author policies, standards, and procedures in collaboration with other teams
  • Evaluate and communicate security risks, processes, and project status to various partners
  • Partner with your global Security colleagues to create culture change and ensure security best practices company wide are reflected in Coinbase Japan and Coinbase Singapore activities

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

  • Experience in designing and documenting control environments in fast-paced, technology-first companies with modern tech stacks
  • Ability to navigate ambiguity and are energized by bringing order to lots of moving parts
  • Ability to partner well with cross-functional teams: engineering, finance, data, and compliance, and have experience working with various global sites to implement coordinated efforts
  • Outstanding communication and writing skills that enable you to proactively build relationships, inform others, and clearly explain security control requirements to any team
  • You have a relevant BA/BS degree

Nice to haves:
