About the role
You’ll be part of the Travel integrations team, helping to define the future of corporate travel through the Rippling Platform’s integrated solutions. As part of Rippling’s Spend Suite—which also includes corporate cards, expense management, procurement, and bill pay—the Travel team is integral to our all-in-one solution for managing corporate spending.
Our customers value the seamless integration of corporate cards, expense management, and accounting automation, with travel management as the next frontier. Our mission is to build the best travel management platform for employees, finance teams, and travel managers alike.
What you will do:
- Craft exceptional platform solutions that will benefit multiple teams to create a seamless user experience.
- Be hands-on in technical architecture and be the liaison between between product leadership, engineering leadership, and technical workstreams
- Tackle complex engineering challenges, leveraging your expertise to devise ingenious solutions that push the boundaries of what is possible.
- Assume clear ownership of your projects, empowering you to make impactful decisions and drive their successful implementation.
- Play a pivotal role in leading and mentoring highly talented engineers across Travel Org.
- Immerse yourself in one of Rippling's newest and most influential products, becoming a true authority and contributing to its ongoing development.
What you will need:
- Experience: 8+ years of professional software engineering experience, with a strong track record in backend development and distributed systems.
- Architecture: Proven ability to design large-scale, fault-tolerant systems from scratch. You understand the trade-offs between consistency and availability and know when "eventual consistency" is not enough.
- High Agency: You thrive in ambiguity. You don't wait for a ticket to be assigned; you identify the business problem, scope the technical solution, and execute.
- Domain Agility: You have the intellectual curiosity to master the complex domain of treasury and money movement in a matter of days, even if you don't have a background in it.
- Tech Stack: Deep proficiency in a modern backend language (Python, Go, Java, etc.) plus experience with complex data modeling (SQL/NoSQL)
- Communication: Ability to convey technical concepts to both engineering and non-engineering audiences effectively.
