Ready to do the most impactful work of your career? At Coinbase, we are uncompromising on our mission to increase economic freedom.

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. Expect to get together quarterly for intense in-person working sessions called “surges.” learn more about working at Coinbase.

We're hiring a Staff Analytics Engineer to lead the data foundations for the Compliance Data team within the Platform organization. This team owns the Compliance Reporting Data Platform, Coinbase's canonical source of truth for user, transaction, and compliance data, and every regulatory report at Coinbase depends on it. You'll define the technical direction for how compliance data is modeled, validated, and certified at scale, ensuring our foundations hold as products, entities, and regulatory requirements evolve, while also delivering accurate, timely data when regulators come calling.

What you'll do:

Own the systems, architecture, technical strategy, and roadmap for the Compliance Data, including the data models, pipelines, quality frameworks, and certification processes that the entire compliance reporting stack depends on.

Build production-grade solutions, in addition to data models and pipelines, covering user, transaction, and compliance data across retail and institutional product lines, designing for durability, auditability, and consumption by both analysts and AI agents.

Drive data quality at the source by establishing data contracts, validation frameworks, monitoring, and reconciliation logic that catch issues before they propagate to downstream reports or regulatory filings.

Partner with upstream engineering teams, Compliance leadership, and downstream consumers to close data gaps, absorb product changes proactively, and define the standards that make compliance data trustworthy and self-serve.

Lead the team's response to live regulatory exams, audits, and time-sensitive data requests, ensuring accuracy and timeliness under pressure while building repeatable processes that reduce future manual effort.

Shape engineering standards and technical culture across the Compliance Data team through architectural decisions, code reviews, mentorship, and converting tribal knowledge into durable, documented infrastructure.
