Staff Software Engineer, Financial Crimes

RippleSan Francisco, CaliforniaFull-time
View Job
Compensation$120K - 180K a year

Lead architectural direction and mentor engineers for complex compliance systems. | 8+ years backend production experience with JVM/Go/Rust and architecture ownership in regulated environments. | 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. THE WORK: Ripple is building the Internet of Value: infrastructure that moves money as fast as information moves today. Every payment that flows across our network passes through real-time financial crimes controls: sanctions screening, wallet risk analysis, transaction monitoring, and travel rule compliance. The Financial Crimes Engineering team builds and operates that layer. This is the engineering that determines whether payments clear or hold, whether Ripple meets its regulatory obligations across jurisdictions, and whether the network can scale without compromising on compliance. The problem space is genuinely hard: high-throughput distributed systems, real-time decisioning, multi-source coordination across external compliance data providers, regulator-grade audit trails, and resilience. As a Staff Software Engineer on this team, you'll set technical direction for that platform. You'll own the architecture of the compliance control plane: the vendor-agnostic, resilient, provable system that lets Ripple move value without moving financial crime, and you'll drive its evolution across Ripple's product lines. This is a role for someone who operates beyond individual services: you'll define the technical strategy others build against, anticipate where the platform needs to go before it's asked, and raise the engineering bar across the team. WHAT YOU’LL DO: Set architectural direction for the compliance control plane: real-time screening orchestration, the resilience and observability layer, vendor-agnostic integration, and the decision/data plane, designing for where the platform needs to be across future jurisdictions and product surfaces, not just today's requirements Drive the hardest, highest-ambiguity technical problems end to end: multi-vendor failover, sub-second decisioning under load, regulator-grade auditability, and resilience across partial dependency failures Translate evolving regulatory obligations and organizational goals into durable engineering primitives and a sequenced technical roadmap, with milestones and clear execution plans Anticipate platform risks and scaling constraints before they become incidents, and lead the initiatives that address them Partner directly with senior leaders to align complex cross-functional objectives and shape how regulatory requirements become engineering reality Set standards for production ownership: observability, alerting, incident response, and raise the reliability bar for the whole team Mentor senior and mid-level engineers, elevate design quality across the team, and act as a technical multiplier: the engineer whose presence makes everyone around them better WHAT YOU'LL BRING: 8+ years building production backend systems, with deep expertise in Java (or comparable JVM languages, Go, Rust) A track record of owning architecture for complex distributed systems at scale, not just building within an existing design, but defining the design others build against Demonstrated ability to drive technical direction across teams and influence engineering decisions beyond your immediate scope Strong resilience and distributed-systems design instincts: failover, graceful degradation, idempotency, high-throughput real-time decisioning Excellent API design judgment (REST/gRPC) and the ability to establish patterns others adopt Proven skill navigating ambiguity in a regulated environment, turning regulator findings, audit obligations, and partner asks into shippable, durable engineering plans Working knowledge of Kubernetes, observability tooling (Grafana, OpenTelemetry, or similar), and cloud infrastructure (AWS preferred) A history of mentoring engineers and lifting the technical bar of a team Experience in fintech, payments, identity, or compliance technology is a strong plus, though exceptional systems architects from adjacent high-stakes domains are welcome WHY THIS ROLE Consequence: your architecture decides whether real payments clear, in real time, for real customers. Ownership at the platform level: you're not owning a service, you're shaping the control plane every Ripple product depends on. Building the next generation: we're actively designing the vendor-agnostic, resilient compliance platform built to scale across new jurisdictions and product surfaces. This is the person who leads that design. Cross-functional weight: you'll work daily with senior leaders across the company. The job is technical, but the influence is organizational. Technical leadership without leaving the code: the senior-most IC voice on a team where the engineering genuinely matters. Other common names for this role: For positions that will be based in CA, the annual salary range for this position is below. Actual salaries may vary based on numerous factors including, among other things, an individual applicant’s experience and qualifications for the position. This range does not include equity or additional compensation, such as bonuses or commissions.

Design and implement observability infrastructure and incident management coaching across cloud environments. | 7+ years SRE/DevOps experience with expert New Relic and Terraform skills, plus PowerShell and Azure proficiency. | 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. At Ripple, we’re building a world where value moves like information does today. 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. Ripple Treasury, now a Ripple solution acquired in 2025, marks a significant expansion into the multi-trillion-dollar corporate finance arena. With more than 40 years of experience supporting some of the world’s largest and most sophisticated companies, Ripple Treasury integrates a treasury command center into Ripple’s technology stack—giving corporates the ability to move, manage, and optimize liquidity in real-time, across traditional and digital assets, under one expanded umbrella. THE WORK: This is an engineering-first role with a coaching dimension—not the other way around. You will spend the majority of your time doing hands-on observability and reliability engineering work: building instrumentation, designing alert configurations, authoring Terraform, and troubleshooting production systems. Alongside that, you will coach and consult with stream-aligned product teams, helping them build operational maturity over time. You will join Ripple’s Technical Operations team and work across Azure (80%) and AWS (20%) environments supporting infrastructure that is predominantly Windows-based (80%), handling significant payment volume for enterprise treasury customers. The incident management program you will help build is early-stage—you will be establishing practices, not inheriting a mature playbook. WHAT YOU’LL DO: Observability Engineering Design and implement monitoring, alerting, and dashboards in New Relic (APM, Infrastructure, Logs, Synthetics) across Azure and AWS; write NRQL queries for troubleshooting, analysis, and reporting. Define and implement SLOs/SLIs and error budgets; coach teams on using them to balance feature velocity with reliability and communicate system health to stakeholders. Lead alert noise reduction and signal quality engineering—tune thresholds, eliminate false positives, and ensure every alert is actionable. Optimize observability costs through log ingestion management, pipeline rules, and New Relic configuration governance. Partner with engineering teams to improve observability maturity: structured logging, metrics instrumentation (RED/USE methods), distributed tracing, and effective dashboard patterns. Infrastructure & IaC Develop and maintain Terraform infrastructure as code for provisioning and managing monitoring resources, alert configurations, and observability infrastructure—this is a primary engineering responsibility, not an occasional task. Establish and enforce IaC governance standards for observability infrastructure across teams, providing a repeatable, auditable model for how monitoring resources are managed. Author and troubleshoot Azure DevOps pipelines; support teams with deployment visibility, change tracking, and release hygiene as it relates to production reliability. Incident Management Administer and configure Incident.IO: alert routing, notification workflows, Slack and OpsGenie integration, and runbook management—operationalizing what exists today and expanding from there. Build out incident management foundations that are largely yours to establish: PIR/postmortem processes, on-call rotation design, escalation policies, incident severity classification, and response playbooks. Track and report on MTTR, MTTD, and incident frequency; identify trends and drive continuous improvement in partnership with engineering teams. Respond to and debrief on production incidents—providing real-time troubleshooting support and facilitating structured post-incident reviews. Cross-Functional Enablement Enable stream-aligned engineering teams to adopt improved observability and incident management practices through workshops, consultation, and hands-on guidance. Collaborate with the Subsystems Platform Team to translate common needs into self-service observability and incident management capabilities. Build lasting team competency through documentation, training materials, and knowledge-sharing sessions that outlast any individual engagement. WHAT YOU'LL BRING: Core SRE Experience 7+ years in Site Reliability Engineering, DevOps, or Platform Engineering with a strong focus on observability and production operations. Proven ability to deliver hands-on engineering work while coaching and mentoring teams—comfortable switching between builder and consultant modes. Experience working in Agile/Scrum environments and collaborating effectively with cross-functional teams. Observability & Incident Management Expertise — Required Expert-level hands-on experience with New Relic (APM, Infrastructure, Logs, Synthetics, Alerts) and strong NRQL proficiency for troubleshooting and analysis. Deep understanding of structured logging, metrics collection (RED/USE methods), distributed tracing, and designing effective dashboards and alerts. Expertise defining and implementing SLOs/SLIs and error budgets for reliability management. Hands-on experience with incident management platforms (Incident.IO, PagerDuty, OpsGenie, or similar). Experience designing incident response workflows, on-call rotations, escalation policies, and facilitating post-incident reviews that drive actionable improvements. Demonstrated ability to troubleshoot complex production issues using observability data across distributed systems. Infrastructure & Tools — Required Strong Terraform experience: developing and maintaining IaC for cloud infrastructure and monitoring resources; familiarity with IaC governance patterns. Proficiency with PowerShell scripting (required given the 80% Windows environment). Strong experience with Azure cloud (App Services, Virtual Machines, Azure SQL, networking, monitoring) and working knowledge of AWS. Experience with Azure DevOps for CI/CD pipeline authoring and troubleshooting. Experience with Octopus Deploy for deployment management and release orchestration. Comfort working across both Windows and Linux server environments. Familiarity with Slack for operational workflows, alert routing, and incident communication. Desired / Additional Experience with alert noise reduction strategies and observability cost optimization (log ingestion, pipeline rules, cardinality management).
