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 $1.85B+ 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 Team
The Finance Accounting team builds the accounting foundation behind Rippling’s Finance products. We help customers turn the activity happening across spend, procurement, reimbursements, and other finance workflows into accurate, auditable data in their ERP.
This is a high-leverage product area where accounting infrastructure, ERP connectivity, and AI automation meet. The team’s work spans the full lifecycle of financial data: helping customers configure accounting rules, validate transactions before they post, recover when syncs fail, and ultimately close their books with more confidence and less manual work.
About the role
We’re looking for a Product Lead to lead Finance Accounting at Rippling. You will own the accountant experience across Rippling’s Finance products and help define the future of accounting automation on top of Rippling’s platform.
Your mandate spans two important problems. First, you will build the accounting infrastructure, workflows, and ERP integrations required for Rippling to serve complex enterprise Finance customers. Second, you will help create a new generation of AI-powered accounting workflows that automate manual close work — from validating transaction coding and configuration readiness, to recovering failed syncs, reconciling activity, and preparing adjustments.
Rippling sits in a unique position between the systems where business activity originates and the ERP where the official books live. That gives us the context to automate work accountants perform manually today and to build an accounting product that can become a major platform in its own right.
