Rippling aims to solve the business problem of fragmented workforce management by providing a unified platform for HR, IT, and Finance. The HR Product Engineering team specifically focuses on building seamless, global, and compliant systems to manage the entire employee lifecycle, addressing complexities in scale, data security, and multi-product integration.
Requirements
- 5+ years of experience shipping high-quality code, including significant time with React/TypeScript and a robust backend framework (like Python/Django).
- Deep understanding of modern frontend architecture, state management, and web performance optimization.
- Experience operating and scaling features across both the frontend and backend in a production environment.
Responsibilities
- Build and innovate across the entire stack—from defining APIs and backend logic to developing polished, intuitive user-facing features in the frontend.
- Collaborate closely with PMs and designers to translate complex product requirements and visual designs into responsive, high-quality code.
- Take ownership of the frontend architecture and user experience, ensuring that the product is not only powerful but also delightful and highly performant.
- Make smart, autonomous technical decisions to accelerate feature delivery while maintaining code quality and scalability.
- Building the core employee record, organizational structure, and workflows that serve as the single source of truth for all other Rippling products.
- Developing accurate, scalable, and globally compliant Time & Attendance systems, including clocking, time-off accrual, and scheduling, ensuring employees are paid correctly and legally.
- Creating and maintaining the marketplace and administration tools for health, retirement, and other employee benefits, handling complex enrollment, eligibility, and provider integrations.
Other
- Strong product intuition and care deeply about design, accessibility, and user experience (UX).
- Strong communication skills with a variety of stakeholders.
- Rippling highly values having employees working in-office to foster a collaborative work environment and company culture.
- For office-based employees (employees who live within a defined radius of a Rippling office), Rippling considers working in the office, at least three days a week under current policy, to be an essential function of the employee's role.
- This role will receive a competitive salary + benefits + equity.
