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.

Rippling HRIS is the "Employee Graph"—the global source of truth for employee data. As the Bangalore Site Lead, you will lead the largest hub outside of HQ, ensuring technical excellence and operational rigor across the site. Simultaneously, you will drive the product strategy for three business-critical domains:
1. Hiring, Onboarding & Global Growth
The Global Mandate: You are responsible for launching and scaling the HRIS and Employer of Record (EOR) experience across 100+ countries. EOR is one of Rippling’s fastest-growing, high-revenue products, and your team builds the "front door" that makes it possible.
The Challenge: Hiring a contractor in the Philippines is different from hiring a full-time employee in Germany. You must abstract this immense legal and logistical complexity into a seamless, automated "Fast Flow" that feels simple to the user.
The Experience: You will lead the development of Native Mobile Onboarding and leverage AI Agents to automate document parsing and candidate Q&A, drastically reducing time-to-hire for our customers3333.
2. Org Management (The Domain Architect)
The Core Data Model: You own the "Brain" of the enterprise. You define how Rippling models the real world: Business Structures (nested cost centers/locations), Skills (competencies), and Unions (bargaining units).
The Impact: Your architecture determines the flexibility of the entire Rippling platform. If you model a "Matrixed Organization" correctly, every downstream app—from Payroll to Identity—works perfectly
3. Accounting Channel (The 0-to-1 Bet)
The New Vertical: You will lead the engineering effort to launch the Accounting Channel, a massive new growth play designed to empower fractional CFOs.
The Product: You will build a multi-tenant command center that allows partners to manage payroll, HR, and spend across hundreds of client organizations simultaneously.

4. The Site Leadership Mandate
Site General: You are the senior-most engineering leader for the BLR HRIS hub (~40% of the org). You set the culture, standards, and operational rhythm for the site
Talent Strategy: You will close Director-level and Staff+ candidates, ensuring the Bangalore team remains a premier destination for top-tier engineering talent.
Bridge Builder: You will ensure high-bandwidth collaboration with US Product and Platform teams, ensuring your teams have the infrastructure support they need to execute.
What We Need From You
Scale & Complexity: You have managed large teams (40+) and have experience delivering software that scales globally. You understand the difference between shipping a feature for one country vs. building a framework for 100
Business Acumen: You understand that "Hiring" isn't just a workflow; it's a funnel. You care about conversion rates, time-to-fill, and how your product drives EOR revenue.
Technical Depth: You can lead architectural reviews for complex domain modeling (Org Mgmt) and high-volume transaction systems.
