Senior Software Engineer - Global Payroll

We Are Engineering-First.

Today 50% of Rippling is engineers, product managers, and designers. For our first three years, engineers owned the product without any support. Of course, we’ve grown a lot since then. But our culture remains engineering-led.  Want to create something from nothing? Our team has 50+ ex-founders who will teach you how. More interested in scaling a product?

About The Role

We’re looking for Senior Engineers to be founding members of Rippling's next billion-dollar vertical.  You will work directly with a few of Rippling's best engineers to build something that has never been built before.  This is a high ownership, impact, and visibility role in building a product that will directly impact Rippling’s growth.

You'll also wear many hats! Writing and reviewing code goes without saying, but at Rippling, engineers do a lot more than just engineering.  You’ll quickly become an expert on the product area and spend time talking to users, planning our product roadmap, and working on go-to-market initiatives.  As an early member of a new team, you’ll also play a major role in shaping the team’s culture and organization to help us scale.

Interesting problems this team will work on:

• Implement an S-expression based calculator used for millions of calculations per second
• Abstract complex networks to build a generic API framework that is capable of moving billions of dollars. 
• Play a foundational role in not only the engineering systems we may use (Rust, Postgres, etc) to build this product but also help drive complex business initiatives.

What You'll Do: 

• Develop high-quality software with attention to detail
• Ship incrementally and continually at high velocity
• Have exposure to the sales teams to prioritize what can improve our revenue
• Interact with customers and support them in being successful with Rippling
• Become the in-house expert on Rippling customers and competition

Qualifications:

• 6+ years of experience in a production environment - Our stack is Python, Django, React, MongoDB, and AWS - this is nice to have but not necessary to join
• You care about product ownership and solving problems for our customers
• You’re passionate about being in a product-focused environment where everyone cares deeply about customer impact
