About the Team

Join the Paradox Product team at Workday to help reimagine recruitment and hiring with the first-of-its-kind conversational recruiting platform! The Paradox AI Assistant streamlines recruiting tasks from end-to-end, including screening, instantly scheduling interviews, and answering common candidate questions.

• Collaborate with Workday’s business Product Owners, customers, partners, development teams including architecture, consultants, operations, and product teams to understand their desired business outcomes and priorities.

• Coordinate and align solution design across multiple scrum teams operating in a sophisticated distributed software environment.

Our Approach to Flexible Work
 

With Flex Work, we’re combining the best of both worlds: in-person time and remote. Our approach enables our teams to deepen connections, maintain a strong community, and do their best work. We know that flexibility can take shape in many ways, so rather than a number of required days in-office each week, we simply spend at least half (50%) of our time each quarter in the office or in the field with our customers, prospects, and partners (depending on role). This means you'll have the freedom to create a flexible schedule that caters to your business, team, and personal needs, while being intentional to make the most of time spent together. Those in our remote "home office" roles also have the opportunity to come together in our offices for important moments that matter.

Pursuant to applicable Fair Chance law, Workday will consider for employment qualified applicants with arrest and conviction records.
