About the Team

VNDLY, a Workday company, is a next-generation vendor management SaaS platform designed for procurement executives, talent acquisition teams, suppliers, and Managed Service Providers (MSPs) to optimize contingent workforce management. We develop cloud software that simplifies talent sourcing and acquisition across various channels, including staffing agencies, job boards, and freelance management systems.

As part of Workday, we are committed to becoming the most customer-centric enterprise software company in the world. We prioritize enabling our customers to connect to the talent they need to excel, achieved by fostering an exceptional engineering team committed to code quality and innovative design.

About the Role

As a Software Development Engineer, you will be joining a team in Chennai responsible for maintaining and building our pay-related features. This is a hands-on-keyboard role where you will not only build features but also own the design, scalability, and resilience of critical services. You will tackle complex challenges related to how contingent workers are onboarded, managed, and paid, working on key features like Jobs, Worker Provisioning, Contracts, and Integrations. You will be a key voice in our architectural decisions and will guide the team in building robust solutions using our stack: Python (backend), React (frontend), and AWS.

About You

This role is for an experienced engineer who enjoys solving complex software problems. The ideal candidate will join an established office of 15 VNDLY colleagues and will be at the forefront of building our engineering presence as part of Workday's larger investment in Chennai.

The ability to work independently, while also working effectively within a large, distributed team, is essential.

Basic Qualifications

• 4+ years shown experience in software development, including experience in designing, building, and maintaining RESTful web services and working with SQL databases (e.g., PostgreSQL, MySQL).

Other Qualifications

• Proficient understanding of code versioning tools (e.g., Git).
