Coinbase
Product Manager II - Core Infrastructure
Coinbase, Pierre, South Dakota, United States, 57501
Overview
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. To achieve our mission, we’re seeking a very specific candidate. We want someone who is passionate about our mission and who believes in the power of crypto and blockchain technology to update the financial system. We want someone who is eager to leave their mark on the world, who relishes the pressure and privilege of working with high caliber colleagues, and who actively seeks feedback to keep leveling up. We want someone who will run towards, not away from, solving the company’s hardest problems. Our work culture is intense and isn’t for everyone. 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. While many roles at Coinbase are remote-first, we are not remote-only. In-person participation is required throughout the year. Team and company-wide offsites are held multiple times annually to foster collaboration, connection, and alignment. Attendance is expected and fully supported. The Core Infrastructure team at Coinbase builds the foundational systems that keep our products online, secure, and scalable. We own the compute, networking, and storage platforms that power Coinbase applications globally. Our work ensures every product runs reliably, cost-effectively, and with the resiliency required in a highly regulated, always-on financial environment. Responsibilities

Collaborate with engineering, SRE, and infrastructure partners to design compute, networking, and storage systems that operate reliably across multiple regions and clouds. Lead evaluation and adoption of infrastructure technologies (compute, networking, storage, observability) to improve performance and maintain uptime during demand spikes. Anticipate growth driven by product launches, traffic surges, and global expansion, ensuring infrastructure capacity scales ahead of demand. Define and monitor SLAs for uptime, latency, and resiliency, and iterate with engineering to consistently meet or exceed these targets. Provide Coinbase teams with reliable, secure, and compliant infrastructure services that accelerate product delivery. Qualifications
Ability to translate infrastructure challenges into clear product strategies and measurable outcomes. Track record of scaling globally distributed systems and core services to handle large, dynamic workloads with high reliability. Skilled collaborator with engineering, SRE, and security partners. Familiarity with cloud infrastructure technologies such as Kubernetes, service mesh, distributed storage, networking, and observability platforms. Comfortable balancing cost, performance, scalability, and compliance requirements in regulated industries. Nice to have
