Senior Counsel, Commercial

Looking for an exceptional attorney to join our Commercial Legal team. You will be the attorney responsible for a variety of commercial transactions. This will include leading a variety of complex first-of-kind transactions that will set precedent for the crypto industry, and partnering with other members of the Coinbase legal team on a wide variety of matters. Negotiate first-of-a-kind, highly-tailored agreements with strategic partners and sophisticated counterparties in the finance, payments, and digital currency space. Provide practical advice on legal issues and risks, complex agreement structures, strategic sourcing and vendor management, and company policies in a risk-tolerant, but compliance-oriented environment. Effectively collaborate with cross-functional teams (Business Development, Strategic Sourcing, Product/Engineering, Finance/Tax, Compliance) and legal colleagues to solve problems, build partnerships, and close deals quickly. Develop scaled strategies for addressing risk in business-centric ways and build commercial processes that allow the business flexibility and freedom to move quickly. Look around corners and creatively solve problems for the business as they plan, build, and execute their transactional and product roadmap. Be a business partner, not just an attorney.
