Responsibilities
- Design mobile-first experiences for modern workforce management, including clock-in/out flows, schedule views, shift swaps, break tracking, timecard approvals, and the Timeclock kiosk app.
- Define what great mobile looks like at Rippling by establishing patterns, interaction standards, and quality benchmarks that extend beyond Time into the broader platform.
- Engage closely with customers to understand how managers and admins actually run hourly teams, identify where workflows break, where complexity hides, and where design can drive real business impact.
- Design scalable capabilities and platform patterns that work for multiple products, customer segments, and use cases, creating coherent experiences across the Rippling platform.
- Use AI as a core part of the design process to clarify problem spaces, generate and refine requirements, explore edge cases, and pressure-test solutions before they reach production.

- Comfort with AI-assisted prototyping tools (Cursor, Claude Code, or similar), even if you do not write production code.
- A strong eye for craft, both interaction and visual, with the ability to set a high bar and drive quality across teams.
- Exceptional communication skills, making abstract concepts understandable and guiding cross-functional partners through decisions.
- A relentless customer focus and desire to dig deep to understand real user needs and translate them into design decisions that solve real problems.
