Team and Role
This role sits at the center of Coinbase Institutional's Prime & Markets strategy. You will own how our most complex products show up to institutional clients globally, from spot and derivatives to cross-margin, liquidity, and execution workflows.
Markets refers to Coinbase's institutional exchange, derivatives, and execution stack accessed via Prime, including spot, futures, options, liquidity access, and market structure capabilities.
You'll partner closely with Product, Markets, Sales, Legal, and Comms to translate deeply technical capabilities into clear narratives, confident sales motion, and measurable client adoption across regions with different regulatory constraints. This is a product-first, revenue-adjacent PMM role with real ownership and influence.
You will execute GTMs today while helping define how Coinbase Institutional goes to market in 2026 and beyond.
You will support products used by hundreds of institutional clients globally, including hedge funds, asset managers, and market makers executing at scale across spot and derivatives markets.

Partner tightly with Sales, STPs, and Coverage to reflect real objections, real deals, and buying behavior.
Reduce complexity for the field by delivering fewer, sharper, higher-impact assets.
Be the Translator Across Teams Translate between Product, Markets, Prime, Sales, and Leadership.
