Senior Engineering Manager - Payroll Reports and Data Infrastructure Engineering San Francisco, CA
Rippling
Software engineering manager job in San Francisco, CA
Senior EngineeringManager - Payroll Data
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
Payroll Data is the heartbeat of Rippling's Global Payroll product ecosystem. It is the source of truth that powers everything from standard reports, tax filings and accounting integrations to complex custom reporting and our new AI capabilities. We are looking for a Senior EngineeringManager to lead the team responsible for scaling this critical infrastructure.
You will lead the Payroll Data team, sitting at the intersection of Product Engineering and Data Infrastructure. Your mandate is to build a robust, scalable, and generic data platform that serves millions of employees globally. You will oversee the pipelines that feed downstream systems (Tax, Accounting, Billing, Object Graph), the feedback loops to upstream products (Time & Attendance, Benefits), and the data query layer that powers both real-time and batch reporting.
This is a role for a leader who spans the gap between product and infrastructure-someone who can architect high-scale data infra along with materialization & aggregation layers while understanding the complex domain logic of Payroll. You will partner deeply with our Platform and AI teams to ensure data correctness, completeness, ensuring observability, and reliability are baked into the core of our system.
What you will do
Scale and Build the Team : Grow a high-performing team from 4 to 10+ engineers over the next year, hiring top talent in SF and establishing a culture of technical rigor and operational excellence.
Architect the Data Strategy : Partner with Principal and Staff engineers to design a unified data query layer that seamlessly combines batch and real-time processing, moving away from scattered solutions to a cohesive platform.
Build, Own the Infra & Pipelines : Build underlying ETL infra & manage the end-to-end lifecycle of critical data pipelines, including those for pay stubs, standard/custom reports, downstream tax/accounting integrations, and our cutting‑edge AI systems.
Drive Non-Functional Excellence : Go beyond feature delivery to obsess over the "ilities"-scalability, observability, reusability, and debuggability. You will ensure our data infrastructure is reliable and easy to build upon.
Bridge the Gap : Act as the technical liaison between Payroll and the Core Platform org (Object Graph, Reporting, RQL). You will articulate complex design decisions and influence the roadmap for how payroll data is stored and accessed.
Execute on High-Impact Initiatives : Lead the team in extending data platform capabilities, solving deep interoperability problems, and migrating legacy data flows to modern, performant standards.
What you will need
EngineeringManagement Experience : 5+ years of management experience, with a track record of leading teams that blend product engineering with backend infrastructure.
Data Infrastructure Background : Deep technical experience in data engineering, data pipelines, or ETL systems. You have likely worked at data-focused companies building complex data products.
Technical Depth : You are hands‑on enough to dive into design discussions with Staff engineers regarding data materialization, schema design, and system interoperability. You understand the trade-offs between batch and real‑time systems.
Cross-Functional Leadership : Exceptional communication skills with the ability to collaborate across time zones and functions. You can effectively align goals with AI, Platform, and external vendor integration teams.
Product-Platform Hybrid Mindset : You understand that you are building internal platforms that serve product needs. You care about the developer experience of the engineers consuming your data as much as the end‑user experience.
Additional Information
Rippling is an equal opportunity employer. We are committed to building a diverse and inclusive workforce and do not discriminate based on race, religion, color, national origin, ancestry, physical disability, mental disability, medical condition, genetic information, marital status, sex, gender, gender identity, gender expression, age, sexual orientation, veteran or military status, or any other legally protected characteristics, Rippling is committed to providing reasonable accommodations for candidates with disabilities who need assistance during the hiring process.

Staff Software Engineer, Site Reliability
Asana 4.6
Software engineering manager job in San Francisco, CA
Asana's rapid growth brings new challenges in keeping our systems fast, reliable, and resilient. As our product evolves, we're making a major investment in reliability - and building a brand new SRE team in Warsaw is a key part of that strategy. This is your chance to help shape it from day one.
This isn't a traditional “ops” role - we're looking for strong softwareengineers who are passionate about building reliable, distributed systems. You'll work closely with a small SRE team in San Francisco, infrastructure engineers in Reykjavik, and an established infrastructure team in Warsaw. Warsaw will be a significant hub for our future infrastructure engineering and operations. As one of the first engineers here, you'll have a real say in how we build reliable infrastructure, manage incidents, and support the rest of the company.
This role is based in our Warsaw office with an office‑centric hybrid schedule - in‑office days are Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday.
We offer a Contract of Employment (UoP) for our employees in Poland.
What you'll do:
Influence the future of Asana's SRE practice, especially as we grow the Warsaw team.
Lead reliability‑focused projects across our stack - from infrastructure to tooling to incident response.
Define and implement Asana's incident management process - we're investing here, and you'll help shape how it works.
Build internal platforms and frameworks that help other teams improve the reliability of their services.
Be part of (and help shape) a sustainable on‑call rotation - shared across teams in Warsaw, San Francisco, and Reykjavik. On average, we handle ~1 page per day, but it's not constant, and we care about keeping things sane.
Work with our stack: AWS, Kubernetes (EKS), Datadog, MySQL (RDS), ElasticSearch (OpenSearch), Redis, DynamoDB, Terraform, TypeScript, Scala, Go, and Python. (Yeah, we know this sounds like buzzword bingo - but we want this post to actually show up in your searches.)
About you:
You're a strong and experienced softwareengineer who's comfortable writing and reading code - this isn't an ops role.
You care about reliability, scalability, and long‑term maintainability, not just quick fixes.
You might have worked as an SRE before - or maybe you were a product engineer who kept getting pulled into infra work because you cared about how systems actually run.
You've seen systems at scale (or want to), and you're excited about solving infrastructure problems that have broad impact.
You're curious, take initiative, and aren't afraid to work in ambiguous spaces - especially important on a brand new team.
You collaborate well across teams and want to help others build more reliable systems.
You don't need to know our exact stack, but you're eager to learn whatever it takes to make things better.
You demonstrate curiosity about AI tools and emerging technologies, with a willingness to learn and leverage them to enhance productivity, collaboration, or decision‑making.
Why this role?
Founding team: You'll be one of the first SREs in Warsaw - and a key player in a growing team.
Drive real change: This isn't a role where you'll just patch up legacy systems. We are expecting (and supporting) real architectural changes to improve reliability, scalability, and long‑term operability.
Big impact: Our product is scaling fast, and reliability is a top company priority.
Room to grow: As this team grows, so will your influence - whether you want to lead projects, mentor others, or help shape how we scale.
Global collaboration: Work closely with experienced engineers in San Francisco, Reykjavik, and Warsaw, while helping build the future of SRE at Asana.
What we offer:
Generous, transparent and fair compensation system (base salary and generous Restricted Stock Unit for Asana Inc.).
Contract of Employment (with 50% tax deductible costs for author's rights usage for Engineers).
Health insurance with dental and travel coverage (Lux Med).
Lunch catering on the days that you work from the office.
Career growth budget.
Home office setup budget.
Gym/Fitness reimbursement.
Fertility healthcare and family‑forming support with Carrot.
Mental health support in Modern Health.
Group life insurance.
MacBooks with all necessary accessories.
For this role, the estimated base salary range is between 23 000 and 33 000 PLN gross monthly on the contract of employment (UoP). The actual base salary will vary based on various factors and individual qualifications objectively assessed during the interview process. The listed range above is a guideline, and the base compensation range for this role may be modified.
Our total compensation consists of base salary and equity (RSUs).
