About the role
Rippling is seeking an experienced backend-focused engineer to help build and scale the IT product platform. You will own core backend services and APIs, ensuring reliable, secure systems that scale for enterprise usage. You will collaborate with product, frontend, and platform teams to translate feature goals into robust, high-performance solutions while mentoring engineers and elevating coding standards in a fast-growing environment.
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
