Coinbase alumnus Rob Witoff is re-joining the company as its new Head of Platform and member of the Executive Team.
From 2014 to 2017, Rob Witoff led security and infrastructure, became Coinbase’s Chief Architect, and then went on to create an industry leading cold storage company, which Coinbase acquired. Even after leaving, he stayed connected to Coinbase, naming his company Unit 410 after Coinbase’s first office address at 1 Bluxome St, Unit 410.
Emilie Choi, President and Chief Operating Officer of Coinbase, commented:
“Rob embodies what it is to be a builder. He cares deeply about crypto, developer productivity and empowerment, and creating a seamless user experience. Rob’s return to Coinbase is a testament to what makes Coinbase special and I am so excited to welcome him back and to the executive team!”
