Define app components including Pages, Business Objects, and Security domains.*** ****Logic & Orchestration:** Develop complex **Orchestrations** (server-side logic) to handle business rules, ensuring data integrity and proper workflow execution (e.g., "If user clicks X, call external API Y, then update Workday Record Z").*** ****API Integration:** Create robust integrations within Extend apps that consume **REST/SOAP APIs** from third-party vendors (e.g., integrating a badge scanning system, vaccination database, or external rewards platform directly into Workday).*** ****Data Modeling:** Architect custom **Business Objects** inside Workday to store unique data fields that do not exist in the standard Workday data model.*** ****UX/UI Design:** Design intuitive user interfaces using Workday’s **Canvas Design System** to ensure custom apps look and feel exactly like native Workday functionality.****L2 Support & Operational Management*** ****App Maintenance & Monitoring:** Monitor the health of deployed Extend apps using the Developer Site console. Troubleshoot runtime errors in Orchestrations or API failures (e.g., resolving "400 Bad Request" errors from external endpoints).*** ****Version Management:** Perform impact analysis and code updates when Workday deprecates underlying APIs. Ensure custom apps are updated to the latest API versions (e.g., v39 to v40) to prevent breakage during bi-annual releases.*** ****Security Governance:** Manage **Security Groups** and **Domains** specific to Extend Apps. Investigate "Access Denied" tickets where users cannot see specific custom pages or data elements.*** ****Performance Tuning:** Optimize slow-loading apps by refining **WQL (Workday Query Language)** queries and reducing excessive API calls.*** ****CI/CD & Promotion:** Manage the lifecycle of moving apps from Sandbox to Production, ensuring proper version control and testing evidence is documented.****Qualifications****Mandatory Education & Certifications*** ****Workday Certification:** Active **Workday Extend** certification is strictly required.*** ****Additional Certifications:** Workday Integrations Core or Workday Studio certifications are highly preferred.*** ****Education:** Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related technical field.****Required Experience*** ****Workday Experience:** 3+ years of technical Workday experience (Integrations or Extend).*** ****Programming Proficiency:** Proven experience with standard web development concepts: **JSON**, **REST APIs**, **JavaScript**, or **Python**.
