THE WORK:
Are you an ambitious engineer looking to make an outstanding impact in the world of financial technology? At Ripple Labs Inc., we are seeking a GenAI Platform Staff Software Engineer to join our team in San Francisco, CA. You will collaborate with world-class colleagues to successfully implement innovative solutions that redefine the global financial system.
WHAT YOU’LL DO:
- Develop and deliver production-quality agentic AI systems end-to-end using Python, Go, and/or Java, covering EKS deployment, agent runtimes, memory systems, orchestration, tool integration, and evaluation pipelines that operate across Ripple's polyrepo engineering environment.
- Define and advance Ripple's Enterprise Agentic AI and developer platform architecture through practical implementations, reference systems, and production deployments — not abstract diagrams.
- Build and implement multi-agent orchestration patterns (planner, executor, reviewer, tool agents) using frameworks such as LangGraph, MCP, Claude Code agent harnesses, or similar orchestration systems, with strong regression coverage and observability.
- Run fast, high-quality POCs on emerging agent architectures; harden successful patterns into reusable platform services, APIs, SDKs, and developer templates that engineering teams across Ripple can adopt.
- Architect and implement data flywheels that continuously improve agent quality through telemetry, benchmarking, automated evaluation, and structured feedback loops — treating quality, cost, latency, and safety as first-class signals.
- Embed security, guardrails, sandbox isolation, auditability, and policy enforcement directly into agent runtimes in partnership with security, compliance, and governance teams — particularly for workflows that touch XRPL, RLUSD, and payment systems.
- Evaluate, integrate, and extend open-source and third-party agent platforms; drive disciplined build-vs-use decisions based on performance, scalability, control, and long-term platform ownership.
- Collaborate closely with engineering, infrastructure, product, and business partners to align architectural direction with enterprise priorities and accelerate adoption across the organization.
