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 $1.4B+ 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.

Rippling is the first way for businesses to manage all of their HR & IT—payroll, benefits, computers, apps, and more—in one unified workforce platform.

About The Role

Join the HRIS Company Team at Rippling, where you'll play a crucial role in transforming the onboarding and purchasing experience for thousands of businesses. As a fast-growing SaaS company, Rippling is dedicated to addressing key challenges in our current processes, such as the complex and manual nature of new company onboarding, the lack of flexibility in app purchasing, and the absence of trial opportunities for potential customers.

Additionally, we strive to make the onboarding process fast, efficient, and error-free for both new customers and our operations team.

As an engineer on this dynamic team, you'll tackle these challenges head-on by developing self-serve SaaS product trial and sign-up flows, revamping onboarding workflows to reduce manual steps, and building near-real-time data sync systems with third-party HCM systems.
