About the Team

The Object Management Service (OMS) has immediate openings for an experienced and strong Java engineer on the Metrics team to work at the very heart of Workday’s cloud-based software platform.
The OMS Metrics team develops software to monitor, tune, and diagnose the very heart of Workday’s cloud-based software platform: The Object Management Server (OMS), which at Workday plays the equivalent role of jet engines to airplanes. You will have the chance to create and develop the cockpit instruments which monitor the health of the system so that the planes fly efficiently and safely through the cloud! It’s also your responsibility to develop tools to help tune the engines, sometimes while airborne. Admittedly, on rare occasions our jet engine does lose power, upon which your tools (better to have a few ready) will be called upon to help diagnose the cause, rev up the engine, or, heaven forbid, do post-mortem analysis if a crash occurred. Sophisticated? Yes. Challenging? Yes. You’ll find your knowledge, experience and talents fully taxed and then some. Must be truly agile, work hard and inquisitive, but also have fun. Just imagine your code zipping into cloud through continuous deployments, help the pilots see, with engines performance tuned, with confidence of fully prepared!

About the Role

• Develop software to monitor, tune, and diagnose Workday’s cloud-based software platform

• Craft and develop software instruments to monitor the health of the platform

• Develop software tools to tune OMS for higher throughput and better efficiency

• Manage and develop software tools to help diagnose the root cause of production incidents

• Prioritizing and design of new products and features in conjunction with product management

• Collaborate with architects, principal engineers and technical product managers to analyze functional requirements, devise architecture designs that provide real scalability, low latency, and high availability

• Scheduling and estimation of software project tasks

• Software quality assurance

• Participation in development of the team, contributing to reviews of methodologies, standards, and processes

• Comprehensive internal documentation of designs and product components

• Resolution of defects in response to escalated support issues

• Provide technical guidance and mentorship to junior developers

About You

Other Qualifications

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.

Pursuant to applicable Fair Chance law, Workday will consider for employment qualified applicants with arrest and conviction records.

Workday is an Equal Opportunity Employer including individuals with disabilities and protected veterans.
