Business Systems Developer

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.

We prioritize candidate safety. Please be aware that all official communication will only be sent from @Rippling.com addresses.

About the Role

As a Salesforce Developer on our Business Systems team, you'll own solutions end to end — from requirements and architecture through build, deployment, and support — partnering directly with GTM business owners and other systems owners. This is a high-ownership, high-visibility role across our go-to-market systems. AI-assisted development is part of how we work.

What You'll Do

• Design, build, and maintain scalable Salesforce solutions — Apex, LWC, Flows, etc.
• Diagnose and resolve complex platform issues — async/bulk data processing, integrations, etc.
• Determine the right solution — declarative, programmatic, an AI application, or outside the platform.
• Build applied-AI solutions when they fit — e.g., an assistant or agent in place of a traditional form or page.
• Contribute to adjacent systems and codebases — not your primary focus, but a regular part of the role.
• Use AI tooling to move faster — development, codebase ramp-up, etc.
• Own the full lifecycle, from architecture through support.
• Translate business requirements into well-architected technical solutions.

Required

• Deep, platform-level Salesforce expertise and sound engineering patterns.
• 3+ years hands-on Salesforce development: Apex, SOQL, LWC, Flows.
• Full-stack development fundamentals; working knowledge of HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and how web frameworks generalize beyond Salesforce.
• Git and CI/CD.
• Proficiency with AI-assisted development.
• Applied-AI solutioning — recognizing when an AI application is the right answer, and designing for it.
• Clear, precise communication and quick, structured thinking.

Preferred

• Domain experience in Sales or Marketing.
• React / TypeScript / Next.js, FastAPI / Python, Tailwind; general AI plumbing.
• Working knowledge of web infrastructure and security.
• Fluency with AI-native development workflows — MCP servers, agentic tooling, and structured prompting.
• Familiarity with a GTM stack: Outreach, CPQ, billing concepts.
• Salesforce Platform Developer I / II.
