About the role

  • Building financial systems at Ramp to enable companies to manage billions. Collaborating with finance teams to develop AI-powered tools and internal systems for financial professionals.

Responsibilities

  • Build internal financial systems. Sub-ledgers, reconciliation tools, close automation, and occasionally treasury or FP&A tooling. You'll write AI agent generated code, do data analysis, and ship working prototypes that become the spec. For smaller changes, you'll commit directly to production.
  • Design and build AI-powered tools that make financial professionals faster. Working systems that solve real problems, not strategy decks about AI.
  • Work directly with Ramp's finance team — our Controller, accountants, treasury analysts. Translate their pain into software. Speak their language: GL, DR/CR, trial balance, intercompany eliminations.
  • Lead engineers through prototypes, not documents. You'll work closely with a world-class engineering team, but your primary artifact is working code, not a requirements doc. You set direction by showing, not telling.
  • Own outcomes, not roadmaps. You'll have fungible scope across the Financial Systems portfolio. The best problem to solve next is the one you'll go find.

Requirements

  • At least 5 years in a product-building role.
  • Deep financial domain expertise. You've worked in or built for accounting, FP&A, treasury, audit, or financial operations. You know what a month-end close feels like. You can read a trial balance and spot what's off. You care about getting this right because you've felt the pain firsthand.
  • Fluent with AI-native dev tools — you ship with Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, or whatever's best this week. You have strong opinions on the toolchain. You've shipped features or tools using LLMs, not just talked about them. Not interested in AI — immersed in it.
  • Strong product judgment and first-principles thinking, especially at the intersection of structured financial data, complex systems, and user workflows.
  • Ability to translate between technical and finance audiences — synthesizing accounting requirements into software architecture and vice versa.

Benefits

  • 100% medical, dental & vision insurance coverage for you
  • Partially covered for your dependents
  • One Medical annual membership
  • 401k (including employer match on contributions made while employed by Ramp)
  • Flexible PTO
  • Fertility HRA (up to $10,000 per year)
  • Parental Leave
  • Unlimited AI token usage
  • Pet insurance
  • Centralized home-office equipment ordering for all employees
  • Health and Wellness stipend
  • In-office perks: lunch, snacks, drinks, and more
  • Budget for intra-office travel
  • Relocation support to NYC or SF (as needed)
