THE WORK:
Ripple is growing rapidly. We are looking for a focused Software Engineering Manager to lead the Product Ledger team. This team builds the double-entry ledger service powering accounting and financial state across Ripple Products. You'll partner closely with Accounting, Product, and Compliance to build a correctness-critical system that scales across new business lines while remaining audit-ready and Oracle-integrated.
WHAT YOU’LL DO:
- Think strategically while balancing both short and long-term needs
- You will build and lead hard-working engineering teams by motivating your team and leading by example to continuously innovate, improve and think differently
- You will deliver outstanding results for our customers and are a role model for other engineers
- Create a shared vision and build and maintain strong partnerships with Product Management, Ops, Security, Research, Customer Success, and Business development teams
- Responsible for the entire software development process for your team’s work
- Own and deliver your roadmap
WHAT YOU'LL BRING:
- 5+ years leading impactful engineering teams, having led teams of 8+
- Hands-on experience in Java (Spring) and comfort reviewing/contributing to backend service code
- Direct experience building or operating a double-entry ledger or core accounting/financial system — journals, debits/credits, chart of accounts, balance derivation, reversals
- Track record with correctness-critical, high-throughput transactional systems: idempotency design, concurrency control (optimistic locking / conditional writes), and balance-integrity guarantees under concurrent writes
- Experience partnering closely with team members — revenue recognition, intercompany accounting, GL mapping, reconciliation, and ERP integration (e.g., Oracle)
- Strong grasp of databases at scale and familiarity with NoSQL data modeling (e.g., DynamoDB) for future migration paths
- Experience designing event-driven systems that translate business events into balanced, auditable postings, with simulation/dry-run tooling for onboarding new event types
- Comfort operating in a regulated, audit-sensitive environment — immutable/append-only records, traceability requirements, safeguarding or similar compliance obligations
- Bonus: familiarity with crypto custody and multi-network asset movement (wallets, blockchain networks, exchanges) given the ledger's (asset, network) balancing model
- Proven track record of defining and owning a technical roadmap across multiple product verticals. This includes onboarding additional service areas onto a shared platform rather than focusing on a single product surface.
- Bias toward action, sound judgment under ambiguity, and success recruiting and growing strong engineers
