Senior Software Engineer, Fullstack (Developer - Onramp)

Coinbase Developer Platform (CDP) 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.

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.

Coinbase Onramp has grown into a leading onramp with millions of users bringing billions of dollars onchain every year. We build the financial infrastructure to bring the world’s economy onchain. We work closely with innovative companies to accelerate this future.
