Group Product Manager, Institutional Financing

At Coinbase, our mission is to increase economic freedom around the world, and we couldn’t do this without hiring the best people. We’re a group of hard-working overachievers who are deeply focused on building the future of finance and Web3 for our users across the globe, whether they’re trading, storing, staking or using crypto. Know those people who always lead the group project? That’s us.

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. Most importantly, we seek people who are excited about crypto, because those are the folks who enjoy the intense moments in our sprint and recharge work culture. We’re a remote-first company looking to hire the absolute best talent all over the world.

Who you are:

• You’ve got positive energy. You’re optimistic about the future and determined to get there. 
• You’re never tired of learning. You want to be a pro in bleeding edge tech like DeFi, NFTs, DAOs, and Web 3.0. 
• You appreciate direct communication. You’re both an active communicator and an eager listener - because let’s face it, you can’t have one without the other. You’re cool with candid feedback and see every setback as an opportunity to grow.
• You can pivot on the fly. Crypto is constantly evolving, so our priorities do, too. What you worked on last month may not be what you work on today, and that excites you. You’re not looking for a boring job.
• You have a “can do” attitude. Our teams create high-quality work on quick timelines. Owning a problem doesn’t scare you, but rather empowers you to take 100% responsibility for achieving our mission.
• 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.

Our vision is to bring more innovation, efficiency, and equality of opportunity to the world by building an open financial system. Our first step on that journey is making digital currency accessible and approachable for everyone. Two principles guide our efforts. First, be the most trusted company in our domain. Second, create user-focused products that are easier and more delightful to use.

The Institutional product team is building a fully scaled markets business that serves the largest institutions (Investment Managers, Corporates, Hedge Funds, Marketmakers, Pensions etc.) in the world by providing the most highly-featured, capital efficient, robust platform across all “verbs” (buy, sell, store, lend, borrow, earn etc.) 

Access to financing is a key requirement for all these customers, and we believe that providing products to meet this need in a first-class, rigorously risk-controlled, institutional-grade way is a huge opportunity for Coinbase and the crypto economy overall.     Solving for this the Institutional Financing + USDC team is building a full-service prime brokerage business for crypto assets that provides holistic financing solutions, integrated with custody and execution services, delivered via a scalable, trusted, compliant platform.

What you’ll be doing

We are looking for an experienced product manager to lead a significant part of the Financing product range.  This will include operating and iterating on successful existing customer-facing products such as Agency Lending, which we believe will become a category-defining product in crypto, as well as developing and building totally new ones.  

As the owner of all Supply products on the Institutional Financing + USDC team you’ll own the products, systems and capabilities that customers use to “earn” on their crypto, those that we use to source assets and funding, and those that ensure the right assets get to the right place at the right time at the right price to facilitate the investment journeys of Coinbase institutional customers globally.  Your success will positively impact the investment strategies and returns of hundreds of institutional clients, and by improving the breadth, depth, and cost of financing in crypto you will have a material positive impact on the development of the digital asset ecosystem overall.

You will:
