Engineering Manager

About Us

Machines will make decisions, move value, and coordinate on behalf of organizations, instantly, autonomously, and at unprecedented scale. But the systems that govern today’s economy weren’t designed for that world. Turnkey is building the infrastructure for this future: programmable guardrails that enable autonomy without sacrificing control.

Founded by the team that scaled Coinbase Custody to $100M+ in ARR and secured more than $100B in crypto assets, we’ve built the systems trusted to move and protect billions in value.

Our mission is to help the world operate an economy on autopilot, safely.We're low-ego, high-agency, and deeply technical. Our team consists of experts in cryptography, security, and systems who believe great infrastructure is invisible. We're building the trustless, programmable foundation for the autonomous economy, and we're hiring people who understand what that requires.
