Senior Product Manager, Financing

Our vision is to bring more innovation, efficiency, and equality of opportunity to the world by building an open financial system. Our first step on that journey is making digital currency accessible and approachable for everyone. Two principles guide our efforts. First, be the most trusted company in our domain. Second, create user-focused products that are easier and more delightful to use.

The Institutional team is focused on building a scaled full-service institutional business that can serve any of the largest institutions in the world (e.g. Pensions, Endowments, Investment Managers, Corporate, Hedge Fund, Marketmakers) by delivering the most capital efficient, one stop platform across all “verbs”. 

Access to “financing” is a key requirement across all these customer segments, and we believe that providing products to meet this need in a first-class, rigorously risk-controlled, institutional-grade way is a huge opportunity, as well as a key unlock for Coinbase and the crypto economy overall.     To deliver on this we are building a full-service prime brokerage business for crypto assets that will deliver holistic financing solutions, integrated with custody and execution services, and delivered via a scalable, trusted, regulatorily-compliant platform.

We are looking for a dynamic product manager to own significant parts of this product range, from ideation and to delivery. As a Product Manager on the Financing team you’ll be tasked with becoming expert on the financing and trading needs of a wide variety of institutional customers - from TradFi to crypto-native, VC to HF - and working with cross-functional partners to turn those needs into products and features that delight our customers, while managing risk effectively and driving value to the overall Institutional business. 

What you’ll be doing (ie. job duties): 

• Identify market opportunities and competition, build business cases and determine product strategy
• Manage the entire product life cycle from planning to execution
• Collaborate cross-functionally with engineering, design and other cross-functional teams to develop product design and quarterback rapid delivery of new capabilities and features to customers
• Define and analyze metrics to guide product development
• Align teams on a shared vision and steer execution on that vision
• Communicate progress on initiatives to cross-functional partners and executive leadership

What we look for in you (ie. job requirements):

• 7+ years of product management or product development experience - or significant relevant domain expertise and a passion for learning new skills
• Exceptional interpersonal communication, relationship management and organizational skills
• Deep analytical, prioritization and problem solving abilities, and the ability to work effectively with incomplete or ambiguous information
• Experience shipping new and iterating on successful products at scale
• Demonstrated leadership, ideally evidence of the ability to guide product strategy and create alignment with senior engineers, designers, and cross-functional partners
• Demonstrated passion for cryptocurrency, financial markets, and the Coinbase mission
• An entrepreneurial mindset with the ability to work independently and succeed in a fast-paced environment

Nice to haves:

• Passionate about crypto and/or its intersection with traditional financial markets
• Background and domain experience working with Institutional customers, ideally in Prime Brokerage/Securities Lending, Derivatives, Swaps or Delta-One 

Pay Transparency Notice:  Depending on your work location, the target annual salary for this position can range from 127,075 GBP to 170,000 GBP + target bonus + target equity + benefits (including medical, dental, vision and 401(k)).
