If you're ready to build the future of finance alongside people who refuse to settle for "good enough," you belong here. Coinbase is a remote-first, but not remote-only company.

• Own the production Vertex Synapse instance, including platform health, backend operations, cron monitoring, and data hygiene
• Build and maintain intelligence feed integrations, enrichments, and tagging so new sources land modeled and usable by stakeholders
• Ship intelligence into downstream controls and data pipelines, including detections, blocklists, data warehouses, and agent workflows
• Partner across Security and Product to translate intelligence requirements into production capabilities
• Rapidly prototype and implement features, fixes, and tooling as required by the team's Intelligence Analysts and stakeholders

Required Skills and Experience:

• 2+ years building and operating threat intelligence platforms or security data pipelines in production environments
• Software development experience in Python, Go, and/or Storm, including deploying production-quality code with CI/CD ownership after ship
• Experience ingesting, modeling, tagging, and lifecycle-managing indicators and related intelligence data at scale
• Track record of troubleshooting and restoring production systems and data quality issues, then driving root-cause fixes to prevent recurrence
• Experience translating cross-functional stakeholder needs into technical solutions within a security operations context

About the role

This is a — role in the Technology field (Cybersecurity) at Coinbase.

We could not match this job title to one occupation in the official wage statistics, so no pay estimate is shown. Pay is not in the source listing; ask the employer for the range and compare in the 240 job niches.

How to prepare and behave

This is editorial guidance, not information from the employer.

• Read the whole description and match your examples to its requirements; use the same words the posting uses where they are true for you.
• Research the employer before the interview: what it does, who its customers are and recent news; prepare two or three questions about the work.
• Arrive early (or log in early for a video call), dress one step above the daily dress code, and test your camera and audio beforehand.
• Answer with short stories: the situation, what you did and the result. Give numbers when you have them and never invent them.
• Be honest about gaps; say what you did to learn and how fast you can close them.
• Ask about the team, the first 90 days, how success is measured and the schedule; do not open with salary and time off.
• When pay comes up, know the market range for the occupation and your lowest acceptable offer before you answer; ask for the full package in writing.
• Send a short thank-you message within a day, mentioning one thing you discussed.
• The listing mentions a remote or flexible location. Confirm with the employer whether remote work applies to your state: taxes, licensing and benefits can depend on where you live.
• Have code, data work or projects you can show, and be ready to think aloud: many technical interviews test how you reason, not only the answer.

• U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission: prohibited employment practices
• U.S. Department of Labor: Wage and Hour Division
