About us
Rippling is a workforce management system that eliminates the friction from running a business. Today, most companies struggle with everything from routine tasks, like running payroll, to cross-functional planning, like aligning on headcount. That’s because all their data related to people, processes, and systems is scattered in a hundred places. Rippling has every application you need to run your business—from applicant tracking and payroll to IT and expenses—in one place. But unlike other systems, Rippling sits on top of a unified platform. Data flows dynamically between Rippling’s applications, giving every team a shared source of truth, the power to automate processes, and access to the insights they need. This allows your business to execute better, faster. Based in San Francisco, CA, Rippling has raised $1.2B from the world’s top investors—including Kleiner Perkins, Founders Fund, Sequoia, Greenoaks, and Bedrock.

Last week, our VP of Design, Ryan Lucas guested on the Executive Function podcast to pull back the curtain on how we build! Check out his take on why the traditional design leadership playbook is outdated and what's working for him instead. 👀 If Ryan’s philosophy on high-rigor design speaks to you, we’re looking for creative leaders to join the team: ➡️ Product Design Lead, Finance https://lnkd.in/eEgEPGkT. ➡️ Product Design Lead, Contractor Experience https://lnkd.in/eY67k9ep. ➡️ Product Design Lead, Platform https://lnkd.in/eBYNj_We ➡️ Product Design Director, Finance https://lnkd.in/eBWnN539 #designleadership #rippling #productdesign #tech #hiring
This is Episode 2 of Executive Function with Ryan Lucas, VP of Design at Rippling and former Head of Design at Retool. For Ryan, everything begins with being very clear about what the job of design and a design function really is. In his words, “Useful, usable and desirable are the three things we need to deliver. And I think people often forget about the last bit, but it’s incredibly important to the practice of professional design, whether it’s physical products or software products. Henry Dreyfuss said the designer’s job is not done if the product doesn’t sell, and I’ve always believed that.” We go on to discuss: - Design leaders who "shield" their teams from organizational chaos are doing them a disservice, not a favor. - To truly scale quality, you probably need a benevolent dictator, one opinionated person who sets the bar. - Parker Conrad goes directly to the individual designer when he sees a problem, skipping Ryan entirely, and Ryan thinks that's great. - At Rippling, individual designers sometimes own a Series C company's worth of product by themselves. - Great creative work cannot come from fear because fight-or-flight shuts down the prefrontal cortex, which is where all creative thinking lives. - In the absence of a date, there is no commitment, and that rigor around commitments is what makes Rippling's speed possible. - One-on-ones should be jam sessions on hard problems, not status updates or career development chats. - He'd rather a young designer have opinions he completely disagrees with than no opinions at all. - The hardest skill in the job is knowing which balls are rubber and which are glass, and you only learn by letting some drop. - The most successful use of a design crit is when designers tell you upfront what feedback they actually need, otherwise everyone wastes time on things that have already been decided. - The perfectionism that makes someone a great designer is the same trait that will prevent them from becoming a great design leader. - The best designers steer the business, they see a problem, come out of their lane, and move the tiller without being asked.

New data from Rippling and Pave reveals a striking pattern in the way startups are hiring: 📌 AI-native startups are growing headcount 2-3x faster than traditional tech companies—hitting 80-110% year-over-year growth while the rest of tech hovers around 20-40%. 📌 Despite all the talk of AI enabling smaller teams, these companies are hiring—a lot. And they're concentrating that growth in senior roles. They are looking for engineers who can ship fast and make architectural calls without hand-holding. 📌 How are they pulling it off? By paying for it. AI-native startups are paying a *significant* compensation premium compared to non-AI tech companies, including 63% higher on equity alone. What this means if you’re a founder: → If you're building in AI, you're competing against companies willing to pay significant premiums for the same people you need. Your comp strategy has to account for that reality—whether through equity structure, speed of hiring process, or the quality of the opportunity itself. → If you're not building in AI, this is still your problem. The senior engineers who might have considered your Series A are now fielding offers from well-funded AI startups paying 60%+ more in equity. Our full report goes deeper on how these dynamics are reshaping hiring. Worth a read if you're planning headcount for 2026.

After a week in India I am a little sleep-deprived, slightly over-caffeinated, and grinning ear to ear. There’s something special about selling a global solution with a global team. The week has been packed with white-boarding new ideas, removing road blocks and building on momentum. But it was also filled with what really makes global teams work, shared meals and cultural exchanges. Some of my favorites: 👉 Mysore masala dosa - which forever changed my view of breakfast 👉 Tandoori shrimp - that tested my confidence 👉 Chai - responsible for half my good ideas Also, a special shout out to Devayan, who spotted me walking along the road after a late night at the office and pulled over to give me a ride on his motorcycle! We are growing at Rippling, so if you want to contribute to a winning team and help us put a dent in the universe, check out our career page.

I’m back to full-time work, but not in HR. Well, kind of… I joined Rippling this month as their HR Evangelist. And, because I’ve been asked by enough family members: No, this is not a religiously-affiliated role. Let me tell you what it is though, because I went out of my way to get this job 👇 Here’s what I’ll be working on: 𝗕𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗹𝘆 𝘂𝘀𝗲𝗳𝘂𝗹 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗛𝗥 𝗳𝗼𝗹𝗸𝘀. Ya know, a place where you can grab an up-to-date annual compliance calendar for all states, look at examples of calibration frameworks with notes from the people who’ve used them. Discuss rolling out 24-hour on-call rotations and get advice for an upcoming company-wide re-org. That kind of stuff ⭐ 𝗗𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗥𝗶𝗽𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴. If you know me, you know I’m always looking for opportunities to give feedback on products I use (a rant for a personal blog one day). My job is to give real life experience feedback and perspective to the people building and selling the product. Yes, this is a marketing role. But, let’s be real: we need HR people evangelizing our experience to the people making our tools. So, if you’re in HR and you’re seeing this post, I seriously invite you to apply to be an early member of our community: The Glue. (We’re the glue. We hold it all together. You know, you get it.) https://lnkd.in/e_vCD_6F

Grateful to Vanessa Kahkesh of Rippling and my fellow judges, Lance Blair, Karin Wilkins and Brendan Woodroff, for organizing and participating in yesterday’s HR Automation Talent Show. It was energizing to see such thoughtful, practical applications of automation that actually respect the realities HR teams face every day. Huge congratulations to the finalists. Your work showed how smart automation can reduce friction, protect time, and give HR leaders more space to focus on people, judgment, and governance, not just tasks. Thank you for the care, creativity, and rigor that went into making this event both useful and inspiring. #HRTech #HRAutomation #FutureOfWork #PeopleOperations #HRInnovation #HRLeaders #WorkplaceGovernance #OpsExcellence
