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 $1.2B 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 team
The Time Products team makes Rippling work for companies with hourly workforces. We own a suite of products that our customers use every day to manage, schedule, and pay their hourly employees while remaining compliant with a complex web of relevant regulations. Every business has different constraints and parameters they want to optimize for – we’re focused on building the right platform capabilities so that we can support the unique particulars of every customer’s workflow.
About the role
Build our scheduling product.
There are tons of moving pieces that will have to come together for us to launch this product: core abstractions for schedules and capacity planning, an easy-to-use optimization engine that’s powerful enough to handle complex user-specified constraints, integrations with external data sources, and frontend/mobile experiences, to just name a few. You’ll help us design and implement these from the ground up.
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 on a new team, you’ll also play a major role in shaping the team’s culture and organization to help us scale.
What you will do
- Write great code and build great products.
- Ship fast – but with a high quality bar. As a staff engineer, you’ll help define and enforce this bar for the team, as well find solutions that allow the team to move quickly with a high degree of safety. At Rippling, we believe that software is a powerful tool to “free smart people to do hard things”, and that applies to the tools and processes we use internally as well.

What you will need

- Experience building and scaling products from the ground up.
- Strong product intuition: you care about design and user experience and are quick to identify how these could be improved.
- Entrepreneurial mindset: you thrive in unstructured environments and enjoy identifying big problems in addition to solving them.
