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. 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.

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 Role

The Design Systems team at Coinbase plays a critical role in executing on our vision to create more economic freedom for the world, and is at the center of execution for products across the entirety of the company. We’re building the most secure, trusted, and easiest to use cryptocurrency products for the millions of people just getting started with crypto, as well as long-standing loyal customers with advanced knowledge of the cryptocurrency space. Our design systems enable and power the products that we build across the company and the UI Systems team is responsible for executing and delivering quality at scale via the Coinbase Design System (CDS).

As a Senior Staff Product Designer you’ll contribute to our mission, vision and strategy through a deep understanding of our customer and business needs. You will develop optimal user journeys to help our customers understand how to use cryptocurrency and complete their tasks with ease and confidence. You’ll work closely with Design and Engineering across our Platform and Consumer orgs to help build simple, easy-to-use experiences that express the Coinbase brand and values.

This position is remote from the US or Canada.

  • Daily collaboration with Engineering, User Research, and Product 

What We Look For in You

  • 10+ years of professional Design experience, including 7+ years of Design Systems experience
  • Experience designing components and systems for consumer-facing experiences for web and mobile
  • Excellence in UX thinking, visual design, and written communication
  • Experience working in a collaborative environment with engineers, user researchers, and product teams
