Group Product Manager, Core Infra and Reliability

About the role

The Core Infrastructure team within Coinbase's Platform product group builds the foundational systems that keep Coinbase online, secure, and scalable. This position involves owning the product vision and multi-year strategy for Coinbase's cloud infrastructure, driving how we design, operate, and scale the systems that underpin hundreds of billions of dollars in annual transaction volume.

Responsibilities

• Own the product vision, strategy, and multi-year roadmap for Core Infrastructure, spanning compute, networking, multi-region and multi-cloud architecture, and platform reliability.
• Drive infrastructure reliability and resilience programs, defining and tracking platform-level SLOs, capacity planning, failover capabilities, and incident reduction targets to ensure Coinbase's systems meet the uptime demands of a global financial platform.
• Lead evaluation and adoption of cloud infrastructure technologies (Kubernetes, service mesh, distributed storage, observability, infrastructure-as-code), making informed build-vs.-buy decisions that balance cost, performance, and operational complexity.
• Partner with Engineering, SRE, Security, and Finance to align infrastructure investments with business priorities, optimize cloud spend, and ensure infrastructure services meet regulatory and compliance requirements across all operating jurisdictions.
• Shape how Coinbase's product and engineering teams consume infrastructure by building self-serve capabilities, defining service standards, and reducing the overhead required for teams to deploy and operate reliable services at scale.
• Deepen understanding of infrastructure performance and cost dynamics by analyzing utilization patterns, identifying the highest-leverage optimization opportunities, and translating infrastructure metrics into executive-level investment cases.
