Staff Full Stack Software Engineer (Backend) - Transition & Termination
Rippling · New York, NY · 1 wk ago
On-siteProject ManagementFull-time
What You Will Do
- Rethink and scale existing products for massive enterprise customers - identify product and technical gaps and deliver an opinionated redesigned approach.
- Build net-new, multi-modal workflows—including chat-driven, "digest-based" UIs—allowing bulk enterprise transitions to be managed efficiently using AI.
- Create customer-facing products on top of a core temporality engine, focusing on conflict detection and intuitive UX for concurrent employee changes, such as mass compensation reviews.
- Partner closely with Design, Sales, TAMs, Support, Product, and the HRIS Platform team to continuously iterate on prototypes and drive product direction.
- Establish a strict "definition of done" and enforce automated quality guardrails to systematically reduce regressions, operational effort, and support tickets.
Requirements
- Extensive experience shipping complex, full-stack, customer-facing products.
- A highly product-minded approach rather than pure backend distributed systems architecture, coupled with deep customer empathy.
- The ability to break down massive product visions into iterative, shippable milestones and clearly justify technical and product decisions.
- Proactive problem-solving skills with the ability to "steelman and strawman" decisions and build robust prognoses backed by evidence.
- Strong leadership and cross-functional communication abilities to mentor your team, manage across departments, and hold partners accountable.
