- Partner with the Coinbase Infrastructure team to extend CI/CD frameworks supporting IT services and enterprise network platforms, and with Security and Compliance to integrate surveillance tooling into deployment pipelines.
- Strengthen observability and documentation standards across IT engineering by defining metrics, implementing monitoring solutions, and maintaining technical documentation that sets a standard of excellence.
- Develop full-stack applications that power internal AI products and infrastructure with Go or Python.
Requirements
### What we look for in you:
- 5+ years of experience automating and supporting cloud infrastructure (AWS) and network environments, with hands-on use of infrastructure-as-code tools (Terraform, Ansible, Chef, Puppet, or Salt).
- Proven experience deploying, managing, and troubleshooting containerized workloads using Docker and Kubernetes in production environments.
- Proficiency in at least one scripting or programming language (Python, Bash, Ruby, or Go) and version control workflows using Git-based CI/CD pipelines.
- Track record of leading incident response in environments with strict SLAs, including root cause analysis, blameless retros, and measurable reliability improvements.
- Utilizes generative AI responsibly, maintaining human oversight to deliver business-ready outputs and drive measurable improvements in workflow efficiency, cost, and quality.

- Annual base salary range (excluding equity and bonus): $186,065 — $218,900 USD.
