Frontend Software Engineer (Identity Team) — Fully Remote

Coinbase is searching for a deeply capable Frontend Software Engineer to join its Identity organization, where the work directly shapes how users securely access one of the world’s most influential crypto platforms.

This is not a casual engineering seat. It is a role crafted for builders who thrive under demanding standards, welcome high-caliber collaboration, and feel energized by solving consequential problems at scale.

Coinbase’s mission is unapologetically ambitious: to increase economic freedom in the world. Achieving that vision requires exceptional engineers who believe in the transformative power of crypto, blockchain infrastructure, and onchain systems to modernize the global financial framework.

If you are drawn to high-ownership work, relentless learning, and a culture where excellence is expected—not merely admired—this opportunity may be worth serious attention.

This means:

• The role supports a remote-first structure
• In-person participation is required periodically throughout the year
• Team and company offsites occur multiple times annually
• Attendance at these gatherings is expected and fully supported to strengthen collaboration, alignment, and team cohesion

Team Overview

The Identity team at Coinbase is responsible for every critical user interaction tied to account access and trust.

This includes:

• Login
• Signup
• OAuth
• Account security
• Multi-factor authentication (MFA)

Within this organization, the Horizontal Frontend team builds and maintains the frontend experiences powering these foundational identity workflows. The team collaborates closely with backend engineering pods to deliver experiences that are seamless, dependable, scalable, and secure.

A major technical priority for the team is the migration of core frontend views to React Native, enabling a more unified cross-platform codebase.

As a Frontend Software Engineer on the Identity team, you will:

• Build and refine frontend experiences for login, signup, OAuth, account security, and multi-user / multi-organization functionality
• Contribute to the migration of primary frontend views into React Native, helping create a more efficient shared codebase across platforms
• Design and implement scalable, maintainable, and performance-conscious interfaces using modern frontend technologies such as React and TypeScript
• Collaborate with backend engineers, designers, product managers, and senior leadership to translate technical and product vision into executable plans
• Maintain low-latency and highly reliable frontend surfaces that support critical user journeys
• Write high-quality, thoroughly tested production code that can serve Coinbase’s expanding global user base
