Why This Role

Rare Opportunity

Rippling is looking for a seasoned Senior Software Engineer to join the Payroll Data team,



one of the most foundational teams in the Global Payroll organization. While other teams build features on top of payroll data, this team defines what that data looks like and how it gets materialized — decisions that shape the capabilities and constraints of the entire payroll product.

In this role, you will design and evolve the core payroll data models that represent earnings, deductions, taxes, and employer costs across dozens of countries. You'll architect materialization pipelines that transform payroll events into consistent, queryable datasets consumed by reporting, analytics and compliance. You'll define data contracts and interfaces that multiple teams depend on, and you'll make principled trade-offs between model expressiveness, query performance, and operational simplicity.

This is an chance to do work with deep technical leverage: a well-designed data model or a faster materialization pipeline doesn't just improve one
