What we look for

Role-agnostic

  • Impact: Demonstrated ability to drive business impact

  • Mission alignment: Hungry and motivated about making progress towards our mission of Enabling everyone in the world to use crypto with peace of mind.

  • Trust: Say what you believe. Do what you say.

  • Communication: Able to clearly talk about the details and also zoom out to the bigger picture

Role-specific

  • We’re looking for a sales leader who thrives in ambiguity, takes full ownership of deals, and builds deep relationships that lead to meaningful partnerships. The ideal candidate will bring a mix of hustle, strategic thinking, and empathy for our partners.

Here’s what success looks like in this role:

🔁 End-to-End Deal Execution

  • You’ve owned complex, multi-stakeholder sales cycles from start to finish — including pricing, negotiation, and contract execution

  • You balance long-term relationship-building with near-term revenue results

  • You take full ownership and act like a business owner, not just a deal owner

  • You influence stakeholders through clear storytelling and a deep understanding of the product, market, and customer needs

🤝 Relationship-Builder

  • You genuinely enjoy building deep, trusted relationships — not just transactional connections

  • You’re proactive in your outreach, even when there’s no immediate ask

  • You know how to stay top-of-mind with partners, and you’re skilled at maintaining strong industry relationships

  • You’re open to traveling (biweekly or monthly) to meet with partners across the U.S. and globally

🧠 Product Fluency

  • You’re comfortable collaborating with product and engineering to advocate for partner needs

  • You know how to run an effective demo that aligns with business outcomes

  • You bring a high-level understanding of how platforms, APIs, and features are built — and how to translate that for non-technical audiences

The starting salary for this position is between $176,000 - $208,000. The actual compensation offered will be based on a variety of job-related factors including relevant skills, education, and experience. This position also includes equity in CoinTracker and benefits like medical, dental, vision, 401(k), life insurance, and PTO.

Technology

Our engineering process includes:

  • Code reviews
  • Continuous integration
  • Multiple daily automated deployments to production
  • Automated testing with >85% code coverage

Some of the technical challenges we face are:

  • Lots of data — billions of data points to track transactions and market pair prices.
  • Data structures & algorithms — automated transfer detection, cost basis tracking, tax optimization, and more. Your CS fundamentals finally come in handy!
  • Scalability — some cryptocurrency users, such as algorithmic traders, accumulate millions of transactions per year. CoinTracker needs to work seamlessly for those power crypto traders.
  • Blockchain — whether it's running our own nodes, implementing xPub address generation and traversal, or parsing smart contracts to seamlessly support decentralized trading, we get our hands dirty with core blockchain technology.
  • Technical complexity — integrating with hundreds of exchanges and blockchains, and supporting thousands of cryptocurrencies means we have to methodically architect our software and build critical monitoring systems to deliver a robust and accurate platform.

Our tech stack is:

  • Web: HTML, Javascript, React, CSS, Sass
  • Mobile: React Native, Expo, GraphQL
  • Backend: Python, Flask, GraphQL, Postgres, Redis, Python RQ
  • Infrastructure: GCP, AWS
