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 $1.8B+ 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.

We prioritize candidate safety. Please be aware that all official communication will only be sent from @Rippling.com addresses.

• Develop shared application platforms and public APIs that enable Finance product teams to build consistent, scalable features quickly.
• Engineer foundational data experiences, including configurable grids, advanced filtering and sorting, bulk actions, reconciliation workflows, and rich transaction line items.
• Build secure, auditable controls such as permissions, policies, approvals, delegation, and rule-engine capabilities that work consistently across Finance products.
• Collaborate closely with product, design, and engineering teams to simplify complex financial workflows into intuitive experiences for employees and finance administrators.
• Contribute to AI-powered experiences that help customers understand their financial data, complete tasks, and operate more efficiently across the Finance Suite.
  
  

What You Will Have

• 1-2 years experience working with fast growing, top tier product companies
• Strong coding in one or more programming languages such as Java, Python, C++, or Go.
• Expert understanding of data structures, algorithms, software design principles and low level design
• Ability to communicate clearly and work effectively in a collaborative environment
• Understanding of system design and complex distributed systems
