The Architecture & AI (AAI) organization is the engine driving Workday’s growth through architectural thought leadership, innovation, and trusted data excellence. Our team brings together diverse expertise in data science, machine learning, AI strategy, and product management to orchestrate a secure, accurate, and accessible data flow across the company. We transform complex datasets into actionable insights, positioning Workday at the forefront of the tech industry.
Within AAI, you will join the Data Platform Engineering Organization in Business Technology. We are the team that turns strategic data goals into reality. By building next-generation, highly scalable, self-service data platforms and reusable frameworks in the AWS cloud, we drastically reduce decision latency and empower data engineers, scientists, statisticians, and business partners.

You will be instrumental in executing the overarching vision of our data platform. Drawing on your extensive experience delivering big data platforms and scalable pipelines in the public cloud, you will actively plan and drive a product roadmap that prioritizes efficiency, flexibility, and scalability to empower our internal teams.
Responsibilities
As a Platform Engineer, your core focus will be building the foundational tools, frameworks, and infrastructure that empower our teams to operate efficiently and securely.
As a Platform Engineer, your primary objective will be to construct the essential infrastructure, frameworks, and tools necessary to enable our teams to function with maximum efficiency and security.
Key Responsibilities
About You
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.
Workday is committed to providing reasonable accommodations for qualified individuals during our application process, in order to perform one or more essential functions of their job, as well as regarding the use of AI tools for employment decision-making to any degree. Please see below for more details including how to request an accommodation as a qualified veteran, due to a disability or for religious reasons, or as otherwise provided under applicable law.
Workday prohibits taking adverse action against any candidate or employee for reporting a possible violation of this policy, requesting one or more work accommodations, exercising a privacy right, or cooperating in an investigation in accordance with applicable law. Any employee who retaliates against a candidate or employee for doing so may be subject to disciplinary action, up to and including termination of employment, to the fullest extent allowable under applicable law.
If you require a reasonable accommodation, you may email accommodations@workday.com, as far in advance as possible.
Are you being referred to one of our roles? If so, ask your connection at Workday about our Employee Referral process!
At Workday, we value our candidates’ privacy and data security. Workday will never ask candidates to apply to jobs through websites that are not Workday Careers.
Please be aware of sites that may ask for you to input your data in connection with a job posting that appears to be from Workday but is not.
