Requirements
  • 7+ years of litigation experience with meaningful time spent on securities class actions, shareholder derivative litigation, or related complex civil litigation at a leading law firm and/or in-house.

  • Familiar with the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act (PSLRA), applicable pleading standards, and the procedural landscape for securities class actions in federal court.

  • Juris Doctor from an accredited law school and active membership in a US state bar in good standing.
  • Utilizes generative AI responsibly, maintaining human oversight to deliver business-ready outputs and drive measurable improvements in workflow efficiency, cost, and quality.
Conditions & Benefits
  • Base salary varies by location (see range below). Total compensation may also include equity and bonus eligibility, and benefits (medical, dental, vision, 401(k)). Annual base salary range (excluding equity and bonus): $224,995—$264,700 USD.
  • Candidates may submit a maximum of 4 applications per 30-day period.
  • Coinbase is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
