Software Engineer at Coinbase
San Francisco, California, United States
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolHamzah Zia is a software engineer with eight years of experience building backend systems and web applications, currently based in San Francisco and working at Coinbase. A University of Waterloo Computer Science student/graduate, he has shipped services at scale at Coinbase and AWS (Aurora PostgreSQL), and has hands-on experience across C++, C#, Java, Node.js, Ruby on Rails, and Go. He’s comfortable across the stack but leans into backend and API design, having worked on consumer-facing products and database engine teams. His resume blends startup and large-cloud experience—early platform roles at Cinchy and Hubdoc plus production work at AWS—so he moves quickly from prototype to reliable production. Colleagues describe him as a pragmatic engineer who pairs academic rigor from Waterloo research with a bias for shipping. Currently open to new grad or early-career opportunities in backend systems and services.
