Senior Staff Software Engineer- Monetization Platform

About the role

Every new product introduces monetization complexity: what a customer purchased, what they are entitled to use, how their subscription evolves, how usage should be measured, what they should be charged, how payments are collected, and how that activity is ultimately reflected in financial systems. We are hiring a Senior Staff Software Engineer to provide technical leadership for the next generation of Rippling's Monetization Platform.

• Design durable platform abstractions that allow product teams to introduce new packaging, pricing, entitlement, metered billing, subscription
• Lead multi-team initiatives from problem definition and architecture through technical design, execution, migration, launch, and long-term operational ownership
• Define clear service boundaries, APIs, data models, ownership models, and failure-handling strategies across interconnected monetization systems
