Our work focuses on building reusable, scalable integration patterns and services that connect enterprise SaaS platforms with internal systems.   We work at the intersection of enterprise SaaS platforms and modern cloud architecture—designing, building, and supporting APIs, event-driven integrations, and platform capabilities that enable critical business operations. Our engineers collaborate closely with product, security, and business partners to deliver reliable solutions that scale with organizational needs.   Operating in a DevOps and Agile environment, we design and manage event-driven architectures, APIs, and data flows that support Finance, HR, and learning systems. We prioritize reliability, security, and observability, ensuring our platforms are resilient and   production-ready .   Our team brings together diverse engineering   skill   sets across cloud infrastructure, integrations, and application development. We partner closely with product and business teams to translate complex requirements into well-architected solutions that deliver measurable impact.   About   Opportunity     As   a Senior Workday Engineer on our ERP & LMS platform engineering team,   you will design, build, and   operate   integrations and cloud-based solutions that power critical Finance, HR, and learning systems. You will work across Workday and other SaaS platforms,   leveraging   AWS services to deliver scalable, secure, and resilient solutions.   You will own the full lifecycle of integrations and platform capabilities — from architecture and development to deployment, monitoring, and ongoing support. A key focus of this role is ensuring solutions are built with strong observability, enabling proactive detection, rapid troubleshooting, and continuous improvement of system performance and reliability.   You will partner closely with product, engineering, and business teams to define clear integration patterns, APIs, and system boundaries. You will help ensure that all solutions meet enterprise standards for security, compliance, and data integrity, while also improving operational readiness through automation, monitoring, and well-defined recovery processes.   As a senior engineer, you will contribute to a culture of engineer ing excel lence by mentoring others, providing thoughtful code and design feedback, and promoting best practices in cloud architecture, DevOps, and integration design. You will play a key role in strengthening the resilience of our   platforms   by   designing   systems that gracefully handle failures, scale effectively, and   maintain   high availability.   This role is ideal for someone who is both a strong builder and an   operator — someone   who not only develops high-quality solutions, but also ensures they are secure, observable, and reliable in production.   In this role, you will:   Design & Implementation (60%)     Design and implement cloud-based integrations and platform solutions across ERP (Workday), LMS, and enterprise systems using AWS and modern integration patterns (APIs, event-driven architecture).   Build high-quality, scalable, secure, and cost-effective solutions using reusable, component-based design patterns that promote interoperability and code reuse.   Embed observability into solutions through monitoring, logging, and alerting to enable proactive issue detection, rapid troubleshooting, and continuous improvement.     Understand new product capabilities and decompose the implementation into specific functional changes for verification .     Build and deploy solutions using Agile, CI/CD, and DevOps practices, ensuring efficient and consistent delivery.   Team Operations & Success (20%)     Participate in Agile ceremonies and contribute to team deliverables in a fast-paced, collaborative environment.   Conduct peer reviews of code and design artifacts,   maintaining   high engineering standards and   promoting   best practices.   Assist  in the resolution of production issues .     Adhere to development standards and security policies and procedures .      Adopt the continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) practice of rapidly implementing, testing, and delivering high-quality code based on the team’s DevOps model .   Continuously develop the skills  required  to work as part of the Agile team in a poly-skilled development environment .   Software Solutioning & Design (20%)     Design for resilience by incorporating fault tolerance, error handling, and recovery processes to ensure reliable,   highly available   systems.     Collaborate with product owners, architects, and stakeholders to translate business needs into well-defined technical solutions and deliverables.   Work closely with Lead Engineer and Data Leads evaluating feature requests, providing level-of-effort estimates and contribute to sprint planning .     Conduct and  participate  in peer   code   and   solution   design reviews .   About you, you   have:   4+ years of Workday integration experience (Studio and Eclipse).   Advanced Workday knowledge in the following areas: Financials, HCM, Reporting, Studio, Orchestrate, Enterprise Interface Builder (EIB), integration systems, Document Transformation, and security.   Experience building and supporting API-based and file-based integrations with internal and external platforms, including externa
