Senior Software Engineer - Platform

Job Description

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.

We prioritize candidate safety. Please be aware that official communication will only be sent from @Rippling.com addresses. 

About the Role:

Rippling's special sauce is its ability to automatically react and understand changes and connections across many systems, and that stems from our unified platform. The Rippling Platform is the infrastructure of the best-run organizations so companies no longer have to rely on duct-tape integrations, or even worse, spreadsheets. On top of the Rippling Platform sits all of our natively built apps, including payroll, device management, and many more.

The next evolution of our 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. If you find solving these types of problems at scale exhilarating, this role is highly likely to be a perfect fit for you.

As part of this role, you will build fundamental components that empower engineers to develop software with step function-inducing capabilities. Your work will bring about transformative changes in software development practices at Rippling.

What You'll Do:

  • Constructing a unified query layer for accessing data across multiple storage layers.

  • Designing algorithms to optimize specific data access patterns.

  • Creating a domain-specific language that allows engineers to interact with these foundational elements.

  • Establishing a generic data persistence layer that spans across Rippling's entire technology stack (similar to building GCP Firebase).

  • Developing fundamental abstractions/frameworks that enable engineers to create OLAP or OLTP-oriented applications.

Qualifications

  • 5+ years of software engineering experience. 

  • Experience building large-scale distributed systems, such as high-volume SaaS environments.

  • Preferred experience in building out large scale product infrastructures/platforms.

  • Preferred experience in our technology stack- Python, Django, Golang, React, MongoDB, Presto, Pinot, Kafka, AWS.

  • Ability to thrive in an dynamic environment by identifying areas of impact and independently pursuing them.

  • A track record of influencing and enabling forward-thinking technology decisions across a wide organization.

  • Excellent ability to communicate complex technical ideas with clarity and precision in written and verbal modes.
