Software Engineer - Data Cloud Engineering Seattle, WA

Rippling is the first way for businesses to manage all of their HR & IT—payroll, benefits, computers, apps, and more—in one unified workforce platform.

By connecting every business system to one source of truth for employee data, businesses can automate all of the manual work they normally need to do to make employee changes. Take onboarding, for example. With Rippling, you can just click a button and set up a new employees’ payroll, health insurance, work computer, and third-party apps—like Slack, Zoom, and Office 365—all within 90 seconds.

Based in San Francisco, CA, Rippling has raised $1.2B 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.

The Data Cloud team is building an end-to-end analytics and business intelligence system for our customers and will replace their need for Data Lakes, Data Warehouses and data pipelines. We are building systems for ingestion, transformation, lineage, data catalogs and visualization. Most companies cobble together data pipelines from Fivetran, Airbyte, Airflow, DBT, Snowflake, Data Bricks, Kafka and a host of other technologies.

Rippling is in the unique position of being the source of the vast majority of this data, hence we can provide an all encompassing solution out of the box.

In addition, we are exploring the use of ML and LLMs to provide automated insight generation and conversational experiences to allow data consumers to have a virtual data scientist as their analytics copilot.
