There are a few things we look for across all hires we make at Coinbase, regardless of role or team. First, we look for candidates who will thrive in a culture like ours, where we default to trust, embrace feedback, and disrupt ourselves. Second, we expect all employees to commit to our mission-focused approach to our work.

- You want to be part of a winning team. We’re stronger together, and you’re a person who embraces being pushed out of your comfort zone.
