Original job description

About the Role

Most companies build applications.

Platform Engineering at Rippling builds the systems that make entire categories of applications possible.

We're hiring a Senior Staff Engineer to help define the future of Rippling's core platform and AI infrastructure. This is a rare opportunity to work on foundational systems that sit at the center of the company and influence nearly every product, engineering team, and customer experience.

Rippling's platform is unlike a traditional infrastructure stack. At its core is a dynamically stitched, permissions-aware business ontology that connects data, workflows, identities, permissions, and business processes across HR, IT, Finance, and Operations. Built on top of that foundation are the systems that power our Object Platform, event-driven dependency graph, workflow engine, search capabilities, developer ecosystem, and Rippling Query Language (RQL).

As AI becomes deeply embedded across the product suite, these platform systems become even more critical. Every AI experience at Rippling must operate against live business data, respect complex permission boundaries, understand organizational context, and execute actions safely and reliably. The infrastructure enabling those capabilities is being built today.

As a Senior Staff Engineer, you'll help define the architecture that powers both Rippling's platform and its next generation of AI-native products. You'll solve distributed systems challenges at significant scale, drive company-wide technical strategy, and influence how hundreds of engineers build software across the organization.

This is a deeply technical leadership role for someone who wants to work on foundational systems, tackle difficult architectural problems, and leave a lasting imprint on a rapidly growing engineering organization.

What You Will Do

Serve as a senior technical leader within Rippling's engineering organization
Define and drive the long-term architecture of core platform systems that power dozens of products and hundreds of engineers
Design highly scalable, reliable, and extensible distributed systems that serve as foundational building blocks across the company
Lead large, cross-organizational initiatives that span multiple teams, products, and technical domains
Translate ambiguous business and product requirements into elegant, durable technical solutions
Drive architectural decisions that impact the future evolution of Rippling's Business Operating System
Partner closely with senior engineering leaders to shape platform strategy and technical direction
Build the infrastructure that enables AI systems to securely interact with live business data, workflows, permissions, and operational systems
Develop core platform primitives that accelerate product development across the company
Raise the engineering bar through mentorship, design reviews, technical leadership, and operational excellence
Act as the directly responsible individual (DRI) for some of the company's most critical technical initiatives
Help define how platform infrastructure evolves to support increasingly intelligent and autonomous software systems

What You Will Need

10+ years of professional software engineering experience, including significant experience operating at the Staff or Senior Staff level
Deep expertise designing, building, and operating large-scale distributed systems
Strong experience developing platform infrastructure, shared services, or foundational engineering systems
Proven ability to lead complex technical initiatives across large engineering organizations
Strong architectural judgment and a track record of designing systems that scale with both business growth and organizational complexity
Experience building highly reliable backend systems in languages such as Python, Go, Java, or similar
Strong computer science fundamentals, including distributed systems, concurrency, data modeling, networking, and systems design
Experience operating in fast-paced, high-growth environments where ambiguity is high and execution speed matters
Exceptional communication and influence skills, with the ability to align engineers, engineering leaders, and executive stakeholders
A product mindset and passion for building platforms that unlock leverage for both developers and customers
Excitement about the role AI will play in transforming enterprise software and the infrastructure required to support it

Why This Role Is Unique

Very few companies are attempting to build what Rippling is building.

You'll work on the foundational systems that power an integrated Business Operating System spanning HR, IT, Finance, Identity, and Operations. You'll help architect the platform that enables hundreds of engineers to build products faster, while simultaneously defining the infrastructure that powers the next generation of AI experiences across the company.

The systems you design won't support a single product or team. They'll become part of the foundation that every product at Rippling is built upon.

If you're excited by hard distributed systems problems, platform architecture at scale, and helping define how AI interacts with real-world business systems, we'd love to talk.
