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.

About The Role
At Rippling, Design is at the core of our mission to free smart people to tackle hard problems. We help teams automate the mundane, surface insights instantly, and operate with clarity and confidence. In a world of outdated, bloated legacy products, we're setting out to create business software that’s modern, streamlined, and deeply considered.
The stakes couldn't be higher. Every week, our Global Payroll products orchestrate the movement of billions of dollars to millions of people worldwide. When someone's paycheck is on the line, "good enough" doesn't exist. There's no room for error, no second chances, no excuses.
Here's what makes this extraordinary: We're not just improving payroll, we're reinventing it. While our competitors patch together decades-old systems, our aim was never to build the world's first truly unified global payroll platform. One system. Many countries. Many currencies. Every compliance requirement. It's never been done because it's never been considered possible.
As Product Design Lead for Global Payroll, you'll design experiences that make the impossible look effortless. You'll take one of the most complex regulatory labyrinths on earth—thousands of tax codes, labor laws, and compliance requirements that change regularly—and transform it into something so beautifully simple it feels like magic. This is product design at the highest level. Your work will determine how millions of people get paid and directly fuel Rippling's expansion into enterprise markets and global growth.
We're looking for fresh perspectives from a seasoned designer who has tackled complex fintech or B2B products. Someone who sees complexity as a canvas, not a constraint. Someone who thrives in high-velocity environments and gets energized by solving problems that have never been solved before.
If you're ready to design the future of how the world gets paid, let's talk.
