Coinbase Developer Platform
Coinbase Developer Platform is building the developer tools to bring the world onchain. Today, onchain development is slow, risky, and painful, even for the most experienced onchain developers. Our goal is to bring a million developers onchain by creating an easy to use and trusted developer experience. We build API and SDK products for developers like wallets, paymaster, staking, stablecoins, onchain data, and more. We are a small team that moves like a startup at Coinbase, with a fast pace, strong ownership culture, and a relentless commitment to making developers happy. The CDP Foundations team owns the core data model and primitives that power the Coinbase Developer Platform. We build the foundational layer that defines how organizations structure themselves, how users and customers are represented and verified, how funds are contained and owned, and how access is controlled.
