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.

We are looking for a Risk Analyst with credit or market risk experience across centrally cleared derivatives and credit products (derivatives, secured lending, and/or prime brokerage), and with a strong understanding in risk analysis / mitigants for levered product offerings. The right candidate will enjoy exploring the technical aspects of the margin framework, focusing on effectively managing leverage levels, position and ecosystem limits, and liquidation notional, while striking a balance between growth and risk management.  This role will report to the Head of Derivatives Credit Risk, and may be based in New York or remotely in the United States.

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

  • Perform quantitative analysis to inform risk calibrations / configurations 
  • Present findings and recommendations to senior leadership and answer questions relating to analysis performed; escalate issues to senior management
  • Lead efforts to produce ongoing surveillance and prepare portfolio observations for senior management
  • Monitor portfolio risks and oversee periodic and ad hoc portfolio reviews.
  • Recommend and implement policies and processes, as appropriate for emerging businesses and risks.
  • Collaborate with business partners (product, coverage, operations, legal, etc.) to resolve complex client and product challenges.
  • Prepare presentations covering key risk trends, areas of focus, and risk analysis related to market volatility 

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

  • Minimum of 4 years’ experience in credit / market risk management associated with derivatives at a global financial institution.
  • Strong quantitative skills and understanding of capital markets products.
  • Strong verbal and written communication skills.
  • Self-starter with commercial business insight. Able to interact, influence and build relationships at all levels of seniority and across all functions within an organization.
  • Able to balance strategic focus with tactical implementation and efficient execution.
  • Excellent analytical, quantitative and spreadsheet skills.
  • Enjoys analyzing, evaluating and forming independent judgments, and challenging the status quo for better outcomes.
