About the role
Product localization and compliance are essential differentiators for Rippling. We are optimizing our payroll solution for the Singapore market and are seeking a highly specialized Singapore Payroll Expert for a 45 to 60 day contract.
In this role, you will be responsible for auditing our compliance mechanics, validating our calculation engines against real-world scenarios, and conducting a targeted functional benchmark against the market’s top competitors. This is a purely execution-focused, highly technical product and compliance assignment where you will directly influence how our payroll engine handles complex Singaporean statutory and operational workflows.
- Location: Singapore (Remote)
- Contract Duration: 45 – 60 days
- Budget: SGD 15K Project Fee
What you will do
- Conduct a Targeted Competitive Functionality Study: Perform a deep-dive, feature-by-feature comparison of Rippling against ~2 top competing payroll solutions in the Singapore downmarket segment (20 to 1,000 employees), such as i-Admin, Talenox, Payboy, or JustLogin.
- Map End-to-End Workflows: Analyze and compare specific product functionality across employee onboarding, standard payruns, hourly worker payruns, termination runs, CPF filings, year-end filings (IR8A, etc.), off-cycle runs, foreign worker support/levies, and integrated Time & Attendance/Leave logic.
- Execute Compliance & Gap Analysis Audits: Review Rippling’s current Singapore payroll product architecture—including onboarding flows, payout generation mechanisms, and statutory filing outputs—to identify, document, and prioritize compliance gaps against MOM, CPF Board, and IRAS regulations.
- Audit Payroll Calculations: Verify the mathematical and statutory correctness of existing customer data and live payroll calculations within the Rippling engine.
- Build a Test Case Infrastructure: Establish a robust, comprehensive library of test cases capturing edge cases, unique variables, and standard Singapore payroll scenarios to bulletproof the calculation engine.
What you will need
- Deep Domain Expertise: Proven track record as a Payroll Implementation Consultant who has successfully led 100+ payroll implementation projects in Singapore, OR as a Payroll Compliance Expert with a deep understanding of software calculation logic OR a product manager having worked on Singapore payroll softwares with deep understanding of Singapore payroll compliances
- Granular Statutory Knowledge: Exemplary, up-to-date knowledge of Singapore labor laws, MOM regulations, CPF contributions, and IRAS tax requirements.
- Platform Familiarity: Hands-on experience working directly with or implementing top-tier Singapore payroll systems (e.g., i-Admin, Talenox, JustLogin, Payboy).
- Execution & Autonomy: Highly self-motivated, detail-attentive, and action-driven with the ability to build test case libraries from scratch and deliver structured documentation within a strict 45-60 day window.
- Analytical Mindset: An analytical thinker who focuses on system architecture and product mechanics rather than high-level consulting frameworks or routine payroll administration.
