About the Team

The Deployment Technology team is transforming how Workday is deployed and managed. Our mission is to reduce deployment time, cost and complexity while helping customers realize value faster. We build products that help Workday implementation teams and partners get customers live faster by making it easier to discover proven setup approaches, reuse configuration, automate repetitive work and use AI-powered tools to guide and complete complex implementation tasks. We also help customers become more self-sufficient after deployment, making it easier to manage and maintain Workday, adopt new products and features, and stay on top of ongoing change through intuitive, AI-enabled experiences. Working closely with customers, partners and product teams across Workday, we’re shaping the next generation of deployment technology across the full customer lifecycle.

About the Role

As a Senior Product Manager in Deployment Technology, you will define and drive product strategy for key areas of the portfolio and translate that strategy into execution. You will own roadmaps and prioritization, shape how we iterate toward the longer‑term vision, and play a leading role in driving adoption across customers, partners, Professional Services and enablement teams.

• Define product vision and strategy for key areas within the Deployment Technology portfolio.
• Own the roadmap and prioritization across connected capabilities, translating long‑term strategy into a clear sequence of product investments and customer outcomes.
• Continuously evolve priorities based on customer insight, adoption data, technical learning and changes in the broader strategy.
• Partner closely with engineering and design to make product trade‑offs and drive high‑quality execution.
• Work directly with strategic customers, partners and implementation teams to validate problems, shape solutions and identify broader platform opportunities.
• Drive adoption across customers, Workday Professional Services and the partner ecosystem, working with enablement teams to remove barriers to usage.
• Define success metrics across product usage, adoption and customer outcomes, using those insights to guide roadmap and investment decisions.
• Shape AI‑enabled deployment experiences including Skills, MCP‑based tools, intelligent automation and agentic workflows, with a focus on experimentation and real‑world validation.
• Influence senior stakeholders and represent Deployment Technology in customer, partner and leadership forums.
• Provide product leadership across connected initiatives, mentoring and guiding other Product Managers and aligning execution with the broader strategy.

About You

• Experience taking products or major capabilities from discovery through delivery, launch, adoption and iteration.
• Experience working closely with software engineering teams on technically complex products.
• Demonstrated ability to influence across large, cross‑functional organisations and align senior stakeholders without direct authority.
• Strong customer‑facing experience and excellent written, verbal and executive communication skills.

Other Qualifications

• Strong product judgement with the ability to move between long‑term strategy and practical execution.
• Proven experience driving product adoption, enablement or rollout for enterprise technology.
• Experience working with partner ecosystems, Professional Services organisations or large‑scale enterprise implementations.

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.
