Staff Data Scientist - Product

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.

Data Science is an integral component of Coinbase’s product and decision making process: we work in partnership with Product, Engineering and Design to influence the roadmap and better understand our users. With a deep expertise in experimentation, analytics and advanced modeling, we produce insights which directly move the company’s bottom line.

We’re looking for a Data Scientist to join Coinbase who will partner with product, engineering, and design to improve both customer-facing products and the core systems that power them. You’ll work across areas like consumer products (spot and advanced trading, yield, Coinbase One, and new launches) or platform systems (Payments, Risk & Trust, Identity & Onboarding, Compliance, Customer Support, and Experimentation). The role focuses on high-impact, cross-functional problems like improving user experience, driving growth, and making Coinbase safer and more reliable. You’ll define and instrument key metrics, build measurement and causal frameworks, build and tune business critical models, and translate insights into product strategy and shipped improvements.

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

  • Devise testing plan to better understand key product metrics and inform product strategy.

  • Act as a strategic partner to functional teams: initiate and execute deep analyses and models to help prioritize opportunities and provide actionable recommendations.

  • Build new analytics and machine learning models that improve both our insights and the product directly.

  • Measure business performance, develop / refine core metrics and create reporting to understand and monitor them.

  • Synthesize data learnings into compelling stories and communicate them throughout Coinbase and to senior executives.

  • Initiate, develop,and maintain data pipelines and data models with outstanding craftsmanship.

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

  • BA / BS degree or equivalent practical experience. 8+ years relevant experience, or a PhD degree in related fields + 5 years.

  • Demonstration of our core cultural values: clear communication, positive energy, continuous learning, and efficient execution.

  • Understanding of statistical concepts and experience in applying them.

  • Related, understanding of experimentation best practices and concepts (e.g., incrementality, cannibalization, etc.)

  • Experience in data analyses using SQL.

  • Experience in at least one programming language (preferably Python).

  • Ability to independently create plans for analytics projects and a track record of overseeing large / complex analytical projects spanning multiple teams.

  • Demonstrates the ability to responsibly use generative AI tools and copilots (e.g., LibreChat, Gemini, Glean) in daily workflows, continuously learn as tools evolve, and apply human-in-the-loop practices to deliver business-ready outputs and drive measurable improvements in efficiency, cost, and quality.

Nice to haves:

  • Previous experience working in crypto is a plus.

  • Domain experience in product, marketing, growth, and/or other business analytics areas.

Disclaimer: Applying for a specific role does not guarantee consideration for that exact position. Leveling and team matching are assessed throughout the interview process.
