Rippling is hiring a Director of Product to lead its IT business unit, which encompasses device management, identity & access management, AI governance, ITSM, automated compliance, and inventory management. You will own product strategy and execution across a broad product surface, hire and develop exceptional product managers, and partner directly with engineering, design, sales, marketing, and customer-facing teams to build next-generation IT products.
Rippling IT is a unified platform that brings together identity, devices, inventory, support, AI governance, and compliance on a single data graph—solving the fragmentation of legacy IT stacks (MDM, identity, ticketing, inventory, compliance, and access governance as separate systems). This is one of Rippling's most strategic and fastest-growing businesses.
Key Responsibilities:
- Own product strategy and execution for major parts of Rippling's IT suite across device management, identity & access management, AI governance, ITSM, automated compliance, and inventory management
- Hire, develop, and lead a high-performing team of product managers, raising the bar for product judgment, customer empathy, velocity, and craft
- Define the next generation of IT products for a world shaped by AI, automation, distributed work, and increasing security and compliance expectations
- Partner deeply with engineering and design to build products that solve complex customer problems with simple, powerful workflows
- Work closely with go-to-market teams to understand customer needs, sharpen positioning, drive adoption, and scale the business
- Be a thought partner to the IT General Manager and senior leadership on product strategy, org design, sequencing, and long-term platform bets
- Develop a clear point of view on how AI will change IT, security, governance, and the way companies manage their workforce systems
Requirements:
- Deep product leadership experience building and scaling complex products
- A track record of hiring, growing, and leading high-performing product teams
- Excellent product taste and systems thinking: ability to turn complex workflows, edge cases, and platform constraints into elegant customer experiences
- High clock speed, strong ownership, and a bias toward action
Nice to Have:
- Strong IT, infrastructure, security, or compliance buyer empathy; understanding of the world of IT admins, CIOs, CISOs, and teams who operate mission-critical systems
