Coinbase is seeking a Senior Accountant to own critical accounting and regulatory functions in a remote-first environment. You will drive monthly and quarterly close activities including reconciliations, journal entries, balance-sheet analysis, and investigation of unusual items. A key responsibility is supporting VARA regulatory reporting with data-quality checks, reconciliations, and audit trails.
You will execute and strengthen SOX controls, maintain process documentation and evidence, and support Internal Audit and external audit requests. You'll partner with cross-functional teams on new product launches, reviewing flow of funds, legal-entity impacts, posting rules, ledger design, and launch readiness. The role includes identifying and implementing automation opportunities to scale accounting operations and proactively identifying accounting, reporting, regulatory, and operational risks.
Coinbase is remote-first but not remote-only; expect quarterly in-person "surge" sessions for intense collaborative work. The company is uncompromising on its mission to increase economic freedom and values high performance in a demanding environment.
REQUIREMENTS:
- Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field; CPA, CA, ACCA, or equivalent qualification preferred
- 5+ years of progressive experience in accounting, controllership, audit, financial services, fintech, capital markets, exchange, custody, clearing, or digital assets
- Strong experience with monthly close, financial reporting, reconciliations, audit support, and internal controls
- Experience with SOX, regulatory reporting, process documentation, control testing, or remediation; VARA exposure strongly preferred
- Ability to understand end-to-end transaction flows and assess impacts across legal entities, systems, ledgers, and reporting outputs
- Strong analytical, organizational, communication, and stakeholder-management skills; ability to operate independently across international time zones
- Familiarity with derivatives, digital assets, OmniLedger/ABOR, NetSuite, SQL, or finance analytics tools preferred
- Responsible use of generative AI with human oversight to deliver business-ready outputs and drive measurable improvements in workflow efficiency, cost, and quality
