Original job description

Your work days are brighter here.

We’re obsessed with making hard work pay off, for our people, our customers, and the world around us. As a Fortune 500 company and a leading AI platform for managing people, money, and agents, we’re shaping the future of work so teams can reach their potential and focus on what matters most. The minute you join, you’ll feel it. Not just in the products we build, but in how we show up for each other. Our culture is rooted in integrity, empathy, and shared enthusiasm. We’re in this together, tackling big challenges with bold ideas and genuine care. We look for curious minds and courageous collaborators who bring sun-drenched optimism and drive. Whether you're building smarter solutions, supporting customers, or creating a space where everyone belongs, you’ll do meaningful work with Workmates who’ve got your back. In return, we’ll give you the trust to take risks, the tools to grow, the skills to develop and the support of a company invested in you for the long haul. So, if you want to inspire a brighter work day for everyone, including yourself, you’ve found a match in Workday, and we hope to be a match for you too.

About the Team Workday, founded in 2005, stands as a groundbreaking force in the human capital and financial management industry, with a global presence and a diverse array of customers. Across our offices worldwide, our teams are united by a shared dedication to innovation, collaboration, and excellence!

The Core Services organization is responsible for the foundational technology that powers Workday’s applications and platform products. We design, build, and support a highly-performant distributed system that handles complex workloads at the scale required by the world’s largest organizations. Our infrastructure runs across both Workday data centers and public cloud environments, executing mission-critical business processes, functions, and integrations. The organization's scope spans from the Gateway to the persistence layer, delivering the scalability, reliability, and efficiency needed to support Workday’s rapidly evolving product landscape.

Joining our team means embarking on a journey of opportunity to advance your career and contribute to impactful solutions that shape industries. Whether you thrive with solving sophisticated business problems, collaborating with agile teams, or championing innovation and software design, Workday offers an environment where your talents can thrive. About the Role

We are seeking a P4 Senior Development Engineer to help design, build, optimize, and operate core platform services that power Workday at scale. This role is ideal for a hands-on engineer with strong distributed systems experience, a passion for high-performance backend engineering, and the ability to reason deeply about reliability, scalability, latency, and production behavior. The engineer will contribute as a senior individual contributor, owning the design and implementation of critical services while also helping improve the operational health of the systems they build. In addition to core software engineering responsibilities, this role requires someone who is comfortable taking on Site Reliability Engineering responsibilities when business needs demand it. The ideal candidate understands that building reliable distributed systems includes participating in operational readiness, incident response, observability, performance tuning, capacity planning, and production support.

What you will do

CI/CD, Automation, and Developer Enablement: Improve CI/CD pipelines, GitOps workflows, and release automation to enable fast, safe, and repeatable delivery. Automate repetitive operational tasks and support development teams by troubleshooting builds, deployments, runtime issues, and configuration problems.
Platform Reliability and Operations: Help design, build, and operate highly available platform capabilities across AWS, GCP, and Workday data centers. Deploy, scale, and optimize containerized workloads using Docker and Kubernetes with a focus on availability, reliability, security, and resource efficiency.
Design and Architect High-Performance Services: Lead the technical design of core features and microservices, ensuring they are decoupled, horizontally scalable, and optimized for low latency and high throughput.
Write Core, Highly Efficient Code: Act as a primary individual contributor, writing clean, production-ready code for critical paths and refactoring legacy components for maximum efficiency.
Diagnose and Resolve Performance Bottlenecks: Conduct deep-dive profiling, memory footprint analysis, and CPU utilization reviews using APM tools to proactively find and fix bottlenecks before they impact production.
Optimize the Data Layer: Own the efficiency of data flow, including designing caching strategies, optimizing database schemas and queries, and selecting efficient serialization formats.
Partner with Infrastructure Teams: Collaborate closely with Cloud Infrastructure teams to ensure software design aligns with AWS architecture and hybrid-cloud environments, maximizing compute, memory, network efficiency, and reliability.
Raise the Technical Bar: Drive rigorous code reviews focused on architectural alignment, concurrency hazards, algorithmic efficiency, and production readiness. Mentor other engineers on writing performance-first, operable code.
Establish Benchmarking and Load Testing: Implement automated micro-benchmarking and load-testing workflows within CI/CD pipelines to catch performance regressions early.

About You

Basic Qualifications

Education: Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.
Core Development: 8+ years of professional software development experience writing clean, high-concurrency, and production-grade code utilizing Python, GoLang, or Java/C++.
Experience in Site Reliability Engineering, DevOps, platform engineering, infrastructure engineering, or production operations.
System Architecture: 4+ years of experience designing, building, and evolving scalable, distributed microservices architectures.
Performance Engineering: Proven track record of diagnosing and resolving complex performance issues, including memory leaks, CPU bottlenecks, and database/IO serialization delays.
Profiling & APM Tools: Hands-on experience with profiling, tracing, and APM tools (e.g., Datadog, New Relic, OpenTelemetry, pprof, or CloudWatch) to analyze runtime application behavior.

Other Qualifications

Experience with observability tools such as Prometheus, Grafana, CloudWatch, OpenTelemetry, Datadog, New Relic, or ELK.
Experience with CI/CD and GitOps tools such as Jenkins, Helm, Argo CD, Argo Workflows, or Kustomize.
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with a proven ability to collaborate effectively with platform, infrasturcture, and product engineering teams.
Experience supporting Java-based applications and build tools such as Maven or Gradle.

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.
