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 Role:

Rippling's special sauce is its ability to automatically react and understand changes and connections across many systems.

These systems encompass payroll, device management, and others.

The next phase of Rippling’s Platform focuses on universal objects, where all objects—customer-defined data, first-party developer data, or third-party developer data—should attain the status of first-class citizens. This parallels the creation of a new type of database. Additionally, enabling next-generation product development as we scale our product to larger, global organizations.

Qualifications:

• 5+ years of software engineering experience
• Experience building well-tested, composable frontend components, React experience preferred.
• Preferred experience in our technology stack- Python, Django, Golang, React, MongoDB, Presto, Pinot, Kafka, AWS
