What are the responsibilities and job description for the Product Lead, Payments position at Rippling?
About Rippling
Rippling gives businesses one place to run HR, IT, and Finance. It brings together all of the workforce systems that are normally scattered across a company, like payroll, expenses, benefits, and computers. For the first time ever, you can manage and automate every part of the employee lifecycle in a single system.
Take onboarding, for example. With Rippling, you can hire a new employee anywhere in the world and set up their payroll, corporate card, computer, benefits, and even third-party apps like Slack and Microsoft 365—all within 90 seconds.
Based in San Francisco, CA, Rippling has raised $1.4B from the world’s top investors—including Kleiner Perkins, Founders Fund, Sequoia, Greenoaks, and Bedrock—and was named one of America's best startup employers by Forbes.
We prioritize candidate safety. Please be aware that all official communication will only be sent from @Rippling.com addresses.
About The Role
Rippling's financial platform is the backbone of how millions of workers get paid, every week, across the globe. We move billions of dollars across dozens of currencies, payment rails, and banking relationships — and the infrastructure that makes that possible is one of the most consequential systems we build. We're looking for a Product Lead to own the expansion and reliability of that payments infrastructure. You will build and launch the payment rails, bank integrations, and money movement capabilities that determine where Rippling can operate, how fast funds move, and how seamlessly we can scale, and accurately we can track all of it. You’ll be building the foundation that Payroll, Corporate Cards, Travel, Banking, Billing and more use to send and receive payments.
