About Rippling

Rippling gives businesses one place to run HR, IT, and Finance. It brings together all of the workforce systems that are normally scattered across a company, like payroll, expenses, benefits, and computers. For the first time ever, you can manage and automate every part of the employee lifecycle in a single system.

Take onboarding, for example. With Rippling, you can hire a new employee anywhere in the world and set up their payroll, corporate card, computer, benefits, and even third-party apps like Slack and Microsoft 365—all within 90 seconds.

Based in San Francisco, CA, Rippling has raised $1.4B+ from the world’s top investors—including Kleiner Perkins, Founders Fund, Sequoia, Greenoaks, and Bedrock—and was named one of America's best startup employers by Forbes.

About the role

We’re forming a new team that will build systems, libraries, and tools to formalize and extend our platform components, so that they can be easily adopted and maintained by our products. This team will work alongside a set of new product teams to build robust abstraction layers. As a Senior Fullstack Software Engineer, you’ll be one of the first hires, playing a central role in shaping the direction, the technical architecture, and the team culture. You’ll work across a range of technologies and systems at Rippling — permissions, workflows, AI and many more. At other companies, this team might be called “frameworks” or “foundations”.

This is an opportunity to build a platform from the ground up: you’ll collaborate closely with platform teams, product teams, and engineering leadership to take ideas from whiteboard to production, move fast in tight feedback loops, and make smart technical decisions that stand the test of scale. We're looking for someone who thrives in ambiguity, cares about the craft of software, and is excited to build systems that are both delightful to use and reliable under the hood.

You’ll have significant ownership, a voice in what we build and how we build it, and a chance to influence the foundation of something ambitious.

What you will do

• Design and implement fullstack features with minimal oversight
• Translate product requirements into technical solutions across the stack
• Help define and build the foundational architecture of new products at Rippling
• Collaborate across platform and product teams to build high quality systems that save our product teams time and maintenance cost
• Write high-quality, well-tested code and contribute to technical documentation
• Participate in code reviews and help establish engineering best practices for the team

What you will need

• A minimum 5 years of experience as a software engineer
• Experience building and shipping production software in a fullstack environment, with experience building platforms used by other teams
• Familiarity with technologies like Python, Django, React, Postgres, MongoDB, and AWS (or similar stacks)
• Ability to independently break down complex problems and drive them to completion
• Strong product instincts and a track record of working effectively with cross-functional teams
• Comfort working in an early-stage environment where priorities may shift quickly

The pay range for this role is:

159,000 - 278,250 USD per year (US San Francisco Bay Area)
