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.

Rippling is looking for a seasoned Senior Software Engineer to join the Payroll Data team, one of the most foundational teams in the Global Payroll organization. While other teams build features on top of payroll data, this team defines what that data looks like and how it gets materialized — decisions that shape the capabilities and constraints of the entire payroll product.
In this role, you will design and evolve the core payroll data models that represent earnings, deductions, taxes, and employer costs across dozens of countries. You'll architect materialization pipelines that transform payroll events into consistent, queryable datasets consumed by reporting, analytics and compliance. You'll define data contracts and interfaces that multiple teams depend on, and you'll make principled trade-offs between model expressiveness, query performance, and operational simplicity.
This is an opportunity to do work with deep technical leverage: a well-designed data model or a faster materialization pipeline doesn't just improve one feature — it improves every feature built on top of it.
Communication matters: This role sits at the intersection of many teams — your ability to define clear abstractions and align stakeholders is as important as your code.
