Engineering Manager, Digital Assets

At Ripple, you'll head the engineering effort to integrate digital assets into the Ripple Treasury platform, creating enterprise software that doesn't yet exist. You will lead a team of up to four full-stack .NET developers, working in close partnership with Ripple's core digital assets team to incorporate XRP, RLUSD, tokenized assets, custody, and cross-border settlement capabilities into corporate treasury workflows. This is a greenfield role with no guidebook or comparable market solution, where you'll determine how digital assets fit into enterprise treasury systems and help establish a new category of software.

What you'll do

• Manage the engineering process for digital asset integration by building and designing systems that join Ripple's digital asset functions (XRP, RLUSD, tokenized assets, custody, cross-border settlement) with Ripple Treasury's enterprise platform
• Build and manage a group of up to four full-stack .NET developers, recruiting, mentoring, and developing engineers while staying actively involved in coding
• Ship working software daily through a fast-paced Kanban workflow where the team builds, presents, iterates, and adapts direction based on findings and collaborator feedback
• Work closely with Ripple's core digital assets team to grasp protocol capabilities, integration points, and roadmap alignment
• Design full-stack solutions spanning .NET backend services and Angular or React frontends, ensuring enterprise-grade reliability, security, and auditability
• Navigate ambiguity with confidence by making sound engineering decisions with incomplete information, course-correcting quickly, and keeping the team productive through rapid pivots
• Partner with product, compliance, and treasury domain experts to translate emerging requirements into shippable features that meet the needs of Fortune 500 CFOs and treasurers
• Define engineering practices for the team by establishing coding standards, review processes, testing strategies, and deployment patterns appropriate for a fast-moving, pioneering effort

What you bring

• 7+ years of software engineering experience with a strong full-stack background in .NET and modern frontend frameworks (Angular, React, or equivalent)
• Over 2 years of experience leading engineering teams, encompassing recruitment, mentoring, and development of engineering groups
• Demonstrated ability to ship software in fast-paced, ambiguous environments where requirements were unclear or changing rapidly
• Production background in fintech, digital assets, or blockchain, with a track record of delivering systems managing actual financial transactions or digital asset activities
• Comfort with pioneering work and the ability to thrive when the playbook hasn't been written yet
• Strong communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to work closely with cross-functional partners including product managers, compliance teams, and external engineering teams
• Hands-on leadership orientation with willingness and ability to write production code alongside your team, especially in the early stages of team building

Nice to have

• Deep familiarity with blockchain protocols, digital asset custody, tokenization, or cross-border settlement systems
• Experience with XRP Ledger, RLUSD, or Ripple's product ecosystem
• Background in corporate treasury, treasury management systems, or enterprise financial software
• Experience integrating traditional financial infrastructure with digital asset platforms
• Familiarity with regulatory requirements for digital asset products in financial services

What we offer

• Annual base salary of $212,000-$265,000 USD (for CA-based positions), plus equity and bonuses
• A learning environment with access to the latest technologies and a professional development budget
• Flexible in-office collaboration, with managers and teams choosing 10+ days a month to work in-office
• Competitive benefits covering physical and mental healthcare, retirement, family forming, and family support
• R&R days, generous wellness reimbursement, and weekly onsite and virtual wellness programming
• Generous vacation policy, industry-leading parental leave, and family planning benefits
• Employee giving match and mobile phone stipend
• Team offsites, team bonding activities, catered lunches, and fully-stocked kitchens
