About the Liquidity Management Team

The Liquidity Management team is at the forefront of a major modernization initiative, reimagining how enterprise treasury teams manage liquidity across a global landscape.

We're not just maintaining what exists — we're rebuilding from the ground up with a bold vision: a modern, intuitive user experience with fast, streamlined workflows that make complex treasury operations feel effortless; a cloud-native architecture built on the latest technologies, designed for scalability, resilience, and speed; and first-class support for both traditional fiat currencies and digital assets, positioning Ripple Treasury at the leading edge of where treasury is headed.

What You’ll Do – Be a Force Multiplier:

Technical Leadership & Architecture:

• Drive architectural decisions for the platform, balancing scalability, maintainability, and rapid deployment goals

• Establish technical standards and design patterns that enable the team to ship features faster with fewer defects

• Lead technical design reviews and provide constructive feedback that elevates the team's architectural thinking

• Identify and eliminate technical debt strategically, creating roadmaps that improve both developer velocity and system reliability

Team Enablement & Mentorship:

• Mentor mid-level and senior engineers, helping them grow into technical leadership roles

• Break down complex, ambiguous problems into actionable work that distributes effectively across the team

• Establish coding standards, review practices, and testing strategies that improve overall code quality

• Champion engineering methodologies including observability, incident response, and production excellence

• Share your enthusiasm for tech trends, explore and learn new technologies, engage with tech communities, mentor fellow engineers, and lead in technical design and code evaluations

Enhance Agility:

• Drive adoption of modern engineering practices that improve developer experience and productivity

• Lead post-mortems and blameless retrospectives that turn incidents into learning opportunities

Strategic Technical Vision:

• Anticipate future scalability challenges before they become blockers (e.g., handling 10x growth in transaction volume)

• Evaluate emerging technologies and recommend when/how to adopt them (e.g., new ML frameworks, database technologies)

• Balance technical excellence with pragmatic delivery, knowing when "good enough now" beats "perfect later"

Ownership & Accountability:

• Own critical systems end-to-end, from design through production support

• Take responsibility for production reliability and proactively prevent incidents

• Step into ambiguous situations and drive them to resolution without needing explicit direction

• Lead by example in code quality, documentation, and operational excellence

• Make tough technical trade-off decisions and clearly communicate the reasoning

What You’ll Work On:

• Core platform modernization — the team is rebuilding the platform from the ground up: a modern, intuitive UX with fast workflows, and a cloud-native architecture designed for scalability, resilience, and speed

• Real-time cash/liquidity data pipelines — building systems that give treasury professionals real-time transparency into cash and liquidity positions across banks, accounts, currencies, and legal entities worldwide

• Digital asset support — engineering first-class support for both traditional fiat currencies and digital assets as part of the platform's forward-looking vision

• AI features — developing and optimizing machine learning models for the GSmart AI engine that predicts cash flows and enables businesses to balance accounts in real time while making complex funding decisions

Years & Scope:

• 8+ years of professional software engineering experience

• 3+ years working on complex, business-critical systems in production

• Experience working on products with significant scale
