Senior Software Engineer, Corporate Cards

About the role

You would be joining the Corporate Cards team, which gives companies unprecedented control and visibility over how employees spend money without needing to duct tape together disconnected card providers, expense tools, and policy systems.

We’ve built corporate cards that are deeply integrated with the rest of Rippling—from employee roles and departments to spend policies and accounting categories. With Rippling, admins can issue cards in seconds and automatically enforce policy rules based on employee context.

The team has seen explosive customer adoption since launching just over a year ago, and we’re scaling rapidly as we prepare for transaction volumes to grow from millions to billions of dollars monthly. As a Full Stack Engineer (Backend-leaning), you’ll play a key role in building and scaling the infrastructure that powers every transaction, policy enforcement, and real time alerting. You’ll also be building backend features that power our web +mobile apps,, while also contributing to our frontend systems when needed

We’re looking for someone who is energized by working across the stack, and is excited to tackle hard engineering problems in the context of financial systems.

What you will do

• Develop high quality software with attention to detail
• Work on complex engineering problems
• Have clear ownership over your projects
• Lay the groundwork for an entirely new product
• Become an expert on one of the newest high-impact products at Rippling
• Provide technical leadership and mentorship for the team

What you will need

• Strong product intuition: you care about design and user experience and are quick to identify how these could be improved
• Ownership: no problem is someone else’s, you challenge the status quo and fix problems when you see it, even if it is not your own
• Entrepreneurial mindset: you thrive in unstructured environments and enjoy identifying big problems in addition to solving them.
• Strong CS fundamentals
• 5+ years of professional work experience
• Experience with Python, Typescript, and React.js is preferred
• Experience building products from the ground up is preferred
