Building a founder-first company
We’re excited to announce that the highly skilled team of engineers at Lekko is joining Rippling. Founded by Konrad Niemiec, Lekko was built to replicate and evolve the dynamic code system Konrad and his team were able to build at Uber and Meta. Konrad knew that good coding tools are transparent, allow work to happen without rebuilds, customer incidents, or zombie flags that come back to haunt you. Lekko addressed this need by creating dynamic software tools for a broader range of companies with more individualized relationships with the customers, clients and partners that use their products.
The Lekko team and I are excited to join Rippling’s talented group of engineers. Rippling’s culture matches ours by rewarding autonomy and pushing through uncertainty. We are motivated to leverage our combined experiences to accelerate the scalability and flexibility of Rippling’s platform.
Konrad Niemiec
Founder of Lekko
Konrad, along with engineers David Kang, Sergey Passichenko and Jonathan Dobbie, will be joining our Platform team and will be part of a cohort of more than 150 former founders at Rippling. We hire founders because of their grit, ambition, and resilience. They have experience building both their teams and products from scratch, thrive on change, push the limits of possible, and nothing is ever not their problem.
When former founders join Rippling, we’re sure to place them in a team where they can have an immediate and significant impact. They often run entire teams and build new products. Konrad and the Lekko team will accelerate our investment in the Rippling platform, helping to scale our capabilities and meet the needs of our growing customers and users.
Welcome, Konrad and team. We’re excited to build together.
If you’re a founder or former founder, reach out. We have positions open across Engineering and throughout Rippling.
