Coinbase has built the world's leading compliant cryptocurrency platform serving over 30 million accounts in more than 100 countries. With multiple successful products, and our vocal advocacy for blockchain technology, we have played a major part in mainstream awareness and adoption of cryptocurrency. We are proud to offer an entire suite of products that are helping build the cryptoeconomy and increase economic freedom around the world.
There are a few things we look for across all hires we make at Coinbase, regardless of role or team. First, we look for signals that a candidate will thrive in a culture like ours, where we default to trust, embrace feedback, disrupt ourselves, and expect sustained high performance because we play as a championship team. Second, we expect all employees to commit to our mission-focused approach to our work. Finally, we seek people with the desire and capacity to build and share expertise in the frontier technologies of crypto and blockchain, in whatever way is most relevant to their role.
Our Employee Experience team owns everything related to our most important asset, our people, from recruiting to engagement to career development. Our shared goal is to make Coinbase the best place for top talent from all backgrounds to work.
We are looking for an expert in assessing talent to join our team and help build a consistent and coherent model for how we hire and review our employees, as well as ensuring we are using appropriate and defensible methodologies when evaluating, recognizing, rewarding, and promoting employees throughout their time with Coinbase.
We are seeking someone who has expertise in both the theory and practical application of assessments, and who is able to evaluate external assessment tools as well as oversee the building of internal ones and embedding them across talent processes effectively.
