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.
Coinbase’s mission is to increase economic freedom in the world, and the Consumer Trading team plays a critical role in that vision by building the fastest, easiest, and most trusted crypto trading platform globally. The team is made up of product designers who take pride in high ownership, strong user empathy, and long-term thinking. We value team members who drive clarity in ambiguity, lead through influence, and raise the bar in design and product excellence.
We are seeking an experienced product designer with extensive experience in designing and building advanced trading products. This role will establish and lead design efforts as part of a local team in Singapore. This team will primarily focus on Coinbase's advanced products and collaborate with teams in the US to define and deliver Coinbase's next-generation trading experience. The role involves leading multi-quarter, cross-organizational initiatives, mentoring designers, and delivering high-quality trading products that address both local and global customer needs.
What you’ll be doing:
- Drive the product design vision and execution of complex, multi-quarter projects across multiple design and engineering teams.
- Lead the discovery and development of mission-critical trading product experiences, including order placement, execution flows, and user interface.
- Partner with Product, Engineering, and other functions to align design strategy with long-term product bets and roadmap.
- Deeply understand and influence our trading product roadmap, identifying strategic design initiatives.
- Mentor and coach product designers across various levels, fostering growth and developing the next generation of trading and design leaders.
- Elevate design quality and promote best practices through design reviews, user research, and process improvements.
What we look for in you:
- 8+ years of product design experience, with a strong track record of shipping large-scale consumer or trading products, including significant leadership roles.
- Deep expertise in designing trading products (traditional or crypto), with hands-on experience and strategic oversight in areas like order types, execution algorithms, market data presentation, or risk management.
- You are customer-obsessed and bring strong user empathy to strategic planning and technical decision-making.
- Proven ability to lead and drive complex initiatives across organizational boundaries, influencing stakeholders and achieving consensus.
- Strong mentoring skills with a passion for leveling up teammates and building high-performing teams.
- Comfortable working in ambiguous environments with high stakes and high velocity, providing clear direction and stability.
- High bar for quality, user experience, and operational excellence, instilling these values within the team.
Nice to haves:
- You’ve been part of a company that builds complicated trading platforms.
- Prior experience in financial markets, especially equities, FX, or crypto.
- Familiarity with regulated environments and designing for compliance and auditability.
- Experience with global product launches and localization.
- Contributions to open source or trading protocols.
