About The Team

Our Workday Platform Security team is at the forefront of revolutionizing how we manage, secure, and deliver key management for both Workday services and our global customer base. Leveraging cutting-edge technologies, we're building scalable platform and services that fuel Workday's growth while maintaining unwavering protection of our data and infrastructure.

Joining our team means directly contributing to the development and support of enterprise-grade security tools vital to our platform security strategy.

This role’s charter is to develop, build, deploy, and support platform security specific solutions and infrastructure to help protect Workday customers data.

The successful candidate will have a demonstrated ability to work in a production focused organization. You will be working in a rapidly moving environment where resilience and scalability are key non-functional requirements. This will require you to work effectively within your own team but also to coordinate with others in teams both locally and in other timezones.

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.
