Ready to be pushed beyond what you think you’re capable of?
At Coinbase, our mission is to increase economic freedom in the world. It’s a massive, ambitious opportunity that demands the best of us, every day, as we build the emerging onchain platform — and with it, the future global financial system.

Our work culture is intense and isn’t for everyone. But if you want to build the future alongside others who excel in their disciplines and expect the same from you, there’s no better place to be.

Our AI teams are dedicated to building intelligent systems that protect our platform while ensuring a seamless experience for legitimate users. We are transforming traditional tasks such as manual document review and risk assessment into an automated, scalable system powered by state-of-the-art machine learning.
What you’ll be doing (ie. job duties):
- Hands-on develop, productionize, and operate Machine Learning models and pipelines at scale
- Contribute to our ML models and work at the intersection of Blockchain and AI technologies
- Work with our senior engineers and collaborate with our product partners to identify and solve new use cases for ML on blockchain
