Manager, Software Engineering (Digital Assets Integration)

About the role

No one has built this before. Corporate treasury teams today face an impossible choice: stick with traditional treasury platforms that cannot handle digital assets, or adopt crypto-native tools that lack enterprise treasury fundamentals. You will lead the engineering effort to eliminate that trade-off — integrating Ripple's digital asset capabilities directly into the Ripple Treasury platform in close collaboration with Ripple's core digital assets team.

Responsibilities

• Lead the digital assets integration engineering effort — architect and build the systems that connect Ripple's digital asset capabilities (XRP, RLUSD, tokenized assets, custody, cross-border settlement) into Ripple Treasury's enterprise platform.
• Build and lead a team of up to four full-stack .NET developers, hiring, coaching, and growing engineers while remaining deeply hands-on with code.
• Ship working software daily — lead a fast-paced Kanban workflow where the team builds, presents, iterates, and adapts direction based on takeaways and partner feedback.
• Collaborate directly with Ripple's core digital assets team to understand protocol capabilities, integration points, and roadmap alignment.
• Design full-stack solutions spanning .NET backend services and Angular or React frontends, ensuring enterprise-grade reliability, security, and auditability.
• Navigate ambiguity with confidence — make sound engineering decisions with incomplete information, course-correct quickly, and keep the team productive through rapid pivots.
• Partner with product, compliance, and treasury domain experts to translate emerging requirements into shippable features that meet the needs of Fortune 500 CFOs and treasurers.
• Define engineering practices for the team — establish coding standards, review processes, testing strategies, and deployment patterns appropriate for a fast-moving, pioneering effort.

Requirements

• 7+ years of software engineering experience with a strong full-stack background in .NET and modern frontend frameworks (Angular, React, or equivalent)
• 2+ years of engineering management experience, including hiring, coaching, and building engineering teams
• Demonstrated ability to ship software in fast-paced, ambiguous environments — you have built products where requirements were unclear or changing rapidly
• Production experience in fintech, digital assets, or blockchain — you have shipped systems handling real financial transactions or digital asset operations
• Comfort with pioneering work — you thrive when the playbook hasn't been written yet and find energy in defining new approaches
• Strong communication and collaboration skills — ability to work closely with multi-functional partners including product managers, compliance teams, and external engineering teams
• Hands-on leadership orientation — willingness and ability to write production code alongside your team, especially in the early stages of team building

Qualifications

• Deep familiarity with blockchain protocols, digital asset custody, tokenization, or cross-border settlement systems
• Experience with XRP Ledger, RLUSD, or Ripple's product ecosystem
• Experience integrating traditional financial infrastructure with digital asset platforms
• Background in corporate treasury, treasury management systems, or enterprise financial software
