The role

What you need

Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience required.
10+ years of progressive HR technology / HRIS functional and technical experience, including significant time in an architecture, principal, or senior technical individual-contributor capacity.
Demonstrated experience as a technical authority who sets direction and influences both technical and business stakeholders — this is a senior individual-contributor role, not an entry-level or first architecture role.
Deep, hands-on expertise in a core HRIS — Workday strongly preferred — across the full module stack (Absence, Benefits, Compensation, Core HCM, Payroll, Recruiting, Reporting, Security, Talent, Time Tracking), including advanced configuration and the business process framework.
Hands-on experience across a multi-platform HR technology ecosystem — not limited to a single HRIS — including payroll (e.g., ADP), applicant tracking (Ashby preferred), employee engagement (CultureAmp preferred), SSO/identity, and compliance/training platforms.
Strong Workday integration expertise (EIB, Core Connectors, Studio, and web services/APIs) and proven experience designing enterprise integration architectures, including iPaaS/integration platforms (e.g., Workato).
Expertise in HR data modeling, data governance, and how HRIS data flows into downstream data-warehouse and BI systems (e.g., Snowflake).
Experience with data-warehousing tools (e.g., Snowflake) and iPaaS/integration platforms (e.g., Workato).
Willingness and ability to perform hands-on technical delivery — configuration, integration development, and reporting — in addition to architecture, design, and oversight; this is not a design-only role.
Broad domain expertise across payroll, benefits, talent management, talent acquisition, onboarding/offboarding, employee engagement, and general HR operations.
Experience supporting HR systems across multiple geographies, ideally including both the US and India.
Proficiency with Workday report writing and complex calculated fields.
Experience with an applicant tracking system (Ashby preferred) and an employee engagement survey platform (CultureAmp preferred).
Demonstrated ability to mentor administrators and provide dotted-line technical leadership without formal reporting authority.
Strong understanding of HR compliance, data privacy, and security considerations across regions.
Exposure to automation and AI applications within HR technology a plus.
Familiarity with NetSuite or a comparable ERP, and how HRIS data integrates with it, a plus (nice to have).
Excellent communication skills, able to influence and align technical and business stakeholders at all levels of a globally distributed organization.
Workday certifications (e.g., Integrations, HCM, or Pro) preferred.
Experience using Google Workspace a plus.
Exhibits sound judgment, discretion, and confidentiality.
