Senior Full Stack (Frontend) Engineer - Platform

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.

The Permissions Platform lies at the foundation of all of this, ensuring that everyone who uses Rippling has the access they need to do their job–whatever data and apps that requires–and no more.

As a Senior Full-Stack Engineer on the Permissions Team, you will play a key role in delivering on this vision by building the fundamental components that make the Permissions Platform delightful to use both for end users, and for other developers at Rippling.

What You Will Do

• Work closely with product managers and designers to design the frontend components–and when necessary, the backend APIs–that enable delightful user experiences everywhere in Rippling where users need to see or manage permissions.
• Own the technical design and implementation of frontend components, and dive as deep into the backend codebase as needed.
• Work closely with other engineers across the organization to adopt these components to enable teams to quickly evolve existing products and bring new products to market.
• Ship high-quality software incrementally and consistently.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of professional experience as a software engineer.
• Experience building well-tested, composable frontend components, React experience preferred.
• Familiarity in one or more backend languages: (Python/Ruby/golang, etc.) and web frameworks (Django, RoR, Spring, etc.)
• Experience working in a fast-paced, dynamic environment.
• Strong communication skills with a variety of stakeholders.
• Care for the end user experience (polish, usability, accessibility, performance).
• A strong sense of ownership, a bias toward action, and a desire to learn and grow.
