## Description

As a Senior Software Engineer on the Stablecoin team within the Developer group, you'll help build and scale Coinbase Custom Stablecoins (CCS), the platform that lets partners launch their own branded, USDC-backed stablecoins on Coinbase's infrastructure. This role sits at the intersection of backend engineering and smart contract development - you'll own the services and onchain contracts that power issuance, reserves, minting and burning, and rewards distribution for a fast-growing roster of partners.

What you'll do:

 * Own and evolve the smart contracts that mint, burn, and safeguard custom stablecoin supply, shipping changes in a secure and auditable way.
 * Build and scale backend services that power onboarding, issuance, reserve accounting, and rewards distribution.
 * Partner with product, design, and tech leads to turn the stablecoin roadmap into shipped features every quarter.
 * Drive architectural decisions across the backend and smart contract surface, balancing security, scalability, and speed of delivery.
 * Write high-quality, well-tested code and raise the bar for operational excellence across the team.
