At Coinbase, we are uncompromising on our mission to increase economic freedom. The bar is high, the environment is intense, and we like it that way. This isn't a place for complacency, it’s a place to be pushed past your perceived limits. 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.
The Compliance Technology team builds and operates data and detection capabilities that enable Coinbase to meet global BSA/AML and related regulatory obligations at scale. We partner closely with Compliance, Product, and Engineering to ensure our monitoring and investigative controls (e.g., Transaction Monitoring, EDD/KYC, Screening) are effective, measurable, and auditable.
What you’ll do:
- Set technical direction for compliance data and control systems within your domain, leading the design, implementation, and operation of large-scale solutions that support global compliance requirements.
- Define and deliver multi-year technical roadmaps aligned with regulatory requirements, business growth, and operational scalability, translating long-term priorities into measurable quarterly outcomes.
- Independently frame ambiguous technical problems, evaluate alternatives, and determine approaches that balance control effectiveness, data quality, reliability, customer experience, and operational cost.
- Lead complex, cross-functional initiatives across Product, Engineering, Compliance, and Operations. Build alignment on technical approaches, resolve competing priorities, and drive delivery across teams without relying on reporting-line authority.
- Serve as a technical expert whose judgment shapes critical architectural decisions across your team and cross-functional partners. Raise engineering quality through hands-on development, design reviews, technical documentation, and reusable approaches.
- Partner with Compliance and control owners to translate regulatory and policy requirements into testable technical controls, with clear acceptance criteria, traceable data, and evidence of control effectiveness.
- Own the operational health of systems within your domain, including monitoring, incident response, and remediation. Detect data-quality issues and control degradation, and drive improvements that reduce recurrence.
- Analyze detection outputs and control-performance trends to improve signal quality and operational efficiency, reducing non-actionable noise while validating that changes preserve detection sensitivity.
- Partner with Machine Learning/AI and Platform teams to improve compliance capabilities, with clear evaluation criteria and ongoing monitoring of production performance.
- Mentor analytics and data practitioners through technical guidance, reviews, and knowledge sharing, reinforcing Coinbase’s cultural values.
Required Skills & Experience:
- At least 10 years of experience developing data-intensive systems, including significant technical leadership in compliance data and control systems.
- Deep expertise in compliance data systems, with a track record of being a trusted technical resource whose judgment shapes architectural decisions and resolves critical cross-functional issues.
- Demonstrated success independently leading complex technical initiatives from problem definition and design through implementation, rollout, and production operation.
- Experience building reliable data pipelines, data models, and multi-tenant compliance controls or systems at scale, with strong practices for data quality, testing, and auditability.
- Demonstrated ability to influence technical decisions and align Product, Engineering, Compliance, and Operations stakeholders without formal authority.
- Strong technical judgment in balancing regulatory and control requirements with system reliability, customer experience, delivery constraints, and operational efficiency.
- Experience evaluating detection or control performance, investigating degradation, and validating improvements to signal quality and effectiveness.
- Strong hands-on skills in implementation, code and design review, technical writing, production troubleshooting, and incident leadership.
- Ability to connect long-term technical direction with near-term execution, independently determining approaches in ambiguous situations.
- Clear communication skills, including the ability to explain complex technical and compliance issues, present trade-offs, and build agreement with technical and nontechnical stakeholders.
- Sound judgment in using AI tools, including reviewing outputs and protecting sensitive data.
- Passion for building an open financial system that brings the world together.
