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, and with offices in New York and Bangalore, 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.

About Benefits

Every year, employers and employees spend over $5 trillion on benefits globally. From health insurance to saving for retirement, these benefits products guide families through some of the most important and impactful decisions in life. Despite the significance of these products and the dollars spent, the experience is still painfully antiquated, expensive, and confusing. 

Rippling is building the first modern multi-sided marketplace that seamlessly connects brokers, employers, and employees with any benefit—our platform powers the discovery, purchase, and use of benefits products around the world. Our benefits vertical includes our Benefits Platform (recommendations, payments, and our benefits eligibility engine), our rapidly growing Benefits Marketplace of over 100 partners, and our natively-built Rippling Benefits Products.

Design plays an essential role in ensuring the product is easy to use, flexible, and powerful, helping free up smart people to work on hard problems for their organizations rather than the busy work that often comes with their jobs. We hold design to a higher standard than others in the industry, and it’s core to Rippling’s vision. The user experience is essential in building trust with our customers so they can feel confident that important aspects of their business run without fail for their employees. As designers, you’re responsible for creating these experiences that solve real everyday problems for employees and companies by designing surprisingly great products for them.

We’re looking for a senior product designer who is passionate about helping businesses and their employees succeed in their missions by helping them run more effectively.

What you will do

• Design new 0-1 products for our Benefits Marketplace, improve and expand on existing products, and uncover greenfield business opportunities within your product portfolio.
• Design large-scale and highly complex experiences while making them intuitive and delightful to use.
• Level up the design team by mentoring other designers, defining operational processes as we hyperscale, continue pushing the limits of possible, and generally leading by example through craft and behavior.
• Collaborate with Product, Engineering, Customer Support, Marketing, Sales and other cross-functional partners to facilitate design-driven discussions, and help prioritize initiatives in planning and product channels.
• Help create a long-term vision for your products, set a roadmap around that vision, and help define product requirements to execute on that roadmap.
• Effectively manage your time, stakeholders and design process to meet aggressive team deadlines.
• Partner with Engineering to ensure a high-quality user experience and bug-free implementation.
• Solicit feedback early and often from your peers, including other product designers on the team by participating in weekly design syncs and sharing out your work in the appropriate channels.
• Help maintain our design system and look for opportunities to enhance or contribute to it.

What you will need

• 6+ years of professional work experience in an individual contributor role on a Product Design team
• An outstanding portfolio, showcasing high-quality product experiences shipped against tight deadlines.
• Experience owning the end-to-end design for a product, from roadmap planning to design to QA.
• Comfort navigating ambiguity and crafting a clear design vision aligned with business goals.
• B.A/B.S. in Graphic Design, Human-Computer Interaction, Computer Science, or a related field/equivalent experience.
