Full job description

At Ripple, we're building a world where value moves like information does today. It's big, it's bold, and we're already doing it. Through our crypto solutions for financial institutions, businesses, governments and developers, we are improving the global financial system and creating greater economic fairness and opportunity for more people, in more places around the world. And we get to do the best work of our career and grow our skills surrounded by colleagues who have our backs.

If you're ready to see your impact and unlock incredible career growth opportunities, join us, and build real world value.

Job Overview

As a Software Engineer II on Ripple's Authentication & Authorisation platform team, you'll contribute to how identity works across our growing portfolio of payment, custody, and liquidity products. Our products have grown up using different identity providers and protocols, and we're now bringing them together into a unified, consistent experience — while also building the fine-grained authorisation primitives that teams across Ripple rely on every day.

How We Work

AI tooling is core to how our team works day-to-day — coding assistants, LLM-based workflows, and agentic tools across design, development, and operations. We're looking for people who already use these fluently, not just curious about them.

Key Responsibilities

  • Build and ship features and components within Ripple's identity platform, with guidance from more senior engineers on the team
  • Contribute to platform services running on Kubernetes, learning the patterns we use for reliability, observability, and secure secret management
  • Participate in design discussions and code review, bringing thoughtful questions and a willingness to learn
  • Help maintain and improve existing services, including investigating issues and contributing fixes
  • Grow toward independent ownership of well-scoped projects over time

What We're Looking For

  • Backend engineering experience in Golang or Java, with some exposure to building or running services in Kubernetes
  • Demonstrated ability to deliver well-scoped features in a production environment
  • Hands-on experience using AI coding assistants and LLM-based tools as part of your day-to-day engineering workflow
  • Comfortable communicating clearly with teammates, asking questions, and contributing to written technical discussions

Nice to Have

  • Exposure to identity, authentication, or authorisation systems in any capacity
  • Familiarity with modern authentication protocols such as OAuth 2.0, OIDC, or SAML
  • Experience working on platform or infrastructure teams

WHO WE ARE:

Do Your Best Work

  • The opportunity to build in a fast-paced start-up environment with experienced industry leaders
  • A learning environment where you can dive deep into the latest technologies and make an impact. A professional development budget to support other modes of learning.
  • Thrive in an environment where no matter what race, ethnicity, gender, origin, or culture they identify with, every employee is a respected, valued, and empowered part of the team.
  • In-office collaboration for moments that matter is important to our culture, and we give managers and teams the flexibility to decide which 10+ days a month they come in.
  • Bi-weekly all-company meeting - business updates and ask me anything style discussion with our Leadership Team
  • We come together for moments that matter which include team offsites, team bonding activities, happy hours and more!

Take Control of Your Finances

  • Competitive salary, bonuses, and equity
  • Competitive benefits that cover physical and mental healthcare, retirement, family forming, and family support
  • Employee giving match
  • Mobile phone stipend

Take Care of Yourself

  • R&R days so you can rest and recharge
  • Generous wellness reimbursement and weekly onsite & virtual programming
  • Generous vacation policy - work with your manager to take time off when you need it
  • Industry-leading parental leave policies. Family planning benefits.
  • Catered lunches, fully-stocked kitchens with premium snacks/beverages, and plenty of fun events

Benefits listed above are for full-time employees.
