  • Own audit logistics and stakeholder engagement in a remote environment, tracking requests, open items, and testing status while maintaining proactive communication with cross-functional partners.
  • Identify control gaps during fieldwork by performing root cause analysis, evaluating exception severity based on likelihood, impact, and regulatory exposure, and escalating where additional stakeholder outreach is required.
  • Develop risk-based recommendations in collaboration with stakeholders, document management responses and action plans, and validate remediation of prior audit findings through to closure.
  • Maintain current knowledge of anti-money laundering and sanctions regulations across all jurisdictions where Coinbase operates, applying regulatory developments to audit scope and testing.

Required Skills and Experience:

  • 3+ years of experience in audit, compliance testing, risk management, or related control-focused roles within financial services.
  • Demonstrated ability to evaluate control exceptions and classify findings by severity based on likelihood, impact, regulatory exposure, and prevalence.
  • Proven ability to translate identified exceptions into clear, proportionate conclusions and recommendations that reflect the severity of risk presented.
  • Familiarity with data analysis techniques (SQL preferred) to perform testing across large datasets.
  • Proven ability to independently manage multiple audit workstreams and stakeholder communication in a fully remote, asynchronous environment.
  • Utilizes generative AI responsibly, maintaining human oversight to deliver business-ready outputs and drive measurable improvements in workflow efficiency, cost, and quality.
