Senior Workday Integrations Engineer — Flexible Schedule

RSM; Houston (TX); Hybrid; USD 95,000 - 164,000; Full time

Job summary

RSM in Houston is seeking a senior, hands-on integration engineer with deep Workday expertise to design, build, and troubleshoot API-driven integrations between Workday and enterprise platforms.

You will work across REST and SOAP Workday APIs, data models, and orchestration layers like Power Automate, delivering deterministic, observable integrations with robust error handling and security.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree or significant related work experience beyond minimum.
• 4+ years hands-on Workday integration experience.
• Strong expertise in Workday SOAP REST APIs, data model, and business process behavior.
• Proven ability to construct API requests manually and troubleshoot failures at the request/response level.
• Debug integrations without Studio abstraction layers and understand XML, namespaces, and schema validation.
• Knowledge of integration security (ISU, ISSG) and authentication patterns.
• Ability to design deterministic, observable, and auditable integrations with robust retry strategies.

Responsibilities

• Design and implement Workday integrations using REST and SOAP APIs, Workday data model, and business process logic.
• Construct and troubleshoot XML payloads, API requests/responses, and security/authentication contexts.
• Build integrations with sound engineering principles: validation prior to write-back, deterministic execution, and robust error handling.
• Diagnose integration issues by analyzing API data, Workday processes, and cross-system sequencing.
• Collaborate with engineering teams to support orchestration patterns using Power Automate and API layers.
• Ensure Workday boundaries are respected and external systems do not override system-of-record logic.
