  • Security Administration: Act as the primary architect for Workday security models. You will design and maintain security groups (role-based, user-based, and intersection) to ensure data integrity and compliance while maintaining an intuitive user experience.
  • Requirements Engineering: Lead discovery sessions with internal and external stakeholders to elicit high-level business requirements. You will transform these needs into technical specifications that prioritize scalability and adhere to industry best practices.

You will develop sophisticated data visualizations, including Advanced, Composite, Matrix, and Trended reports, utilizing complex Calculated Fields to drive data-informed decision-making via executive dashboards.
  • Quality Assurance & Testing: Partner with business owners to develop comprehensive test strategies. You will oversee End-to-End (E2E) testing, develop rigorous test scripts, and facilitate User Acceptance Testing (UAT) to ensure defect-free deployments.
  • Operational Excellence: Provide Tier 3 functional support by troubleshooting complex system issues and managing the ticket lifecycle via Jira and ServiceNow. You will ensure all system documentation and functional artifacts are maintained with high precision.
  • Strategic Collaboration: Work closely with People/HR teams and product developers to evaluate Workday releases (semi-annual updates) and identify new features that drive operational efficiency and system adoption.
