About The Role Rippling’s Data Cloud underpins every analytical experience across our platform—from real-time dashboards for HR and IT admins, to executive-level insights, to the next generation of AI-driven workflows. We are building the foundational UX and visualization layer for Rippling’s end-to-end Data Cloud—uniting ingestion, transformation, modeling, and visualization so every workflow can leverage trustworthy, real-time data . This requires a front-end architecture that can interact seamlessly with large, fast-moving datasets while delivering a fluid, consumer-grade analytical experience.
We’re looking for a Senior Staff Front-End Engineer to define and lead the technical direction of this ecosystem. You will architect the rendering pipelines, interaction models, and performance systems that power data exploration for millions of users. You’ll build the visualization layer that transforms raw, multi-modal data into insights, governs how LLMs translate intent into UI actions, and becomes the foundation for every analytics surface at Rippling.
This is a mission-critical, high-visibility role . You will operate as the primary front-end counterpart to multiple Staff+ backend and ML leaders, owning the core analytical interaction loop for the entire company. Your decisions will shape our approach to scalable visualization, cross-product consistency, and developer productivity for years.
We’re looking for someone who can immediately step into a deeply technical, highly ambiguous problem space; make independent architectural decisions at Data Cloud scale; and accelerate the engineering organization through clarity, rigor, and world-class execution.
