• Support and execute Workday releases and internal deployments: impact assessment, configuration updates, regression testing coordination, and production migration.
• Create and maintain reports and dashboards using Workday reporting tools (custom reports, composite reports, matrix reports, calculated fields, dashboards); support financial statement reporting and operational analytics.
• Perform troubleshooting and root-cause analysis for configuration, process, and data issues; partner with functional owners to implement corrective and preventive actions.
• Develop and maintain documentation, including configuration workbooks, process flows, test scripts, and operating procedures; contribute to knowledge transfer and cross-training within the team.
• Support month-end/quarter-end/year-end activities by ensuring configuration readiness, monitoring exceptions, and assisting with reconciliations and audit requests.
• Train and enable end users and finance partners on new features, process changes, and reporting capabilities.

• Working knowledge of accounting concepts (chart of accounts, journal entries, accruals, intercompany, financial statements) and internal controls.
• Strong experience with Workday reporting (calculated fields, custom reports) and data validation/reconciliation.
• Experience supporting testing cycles (unit, SIT, UAT), including creation of test scripts and defect triage.
• Ability to communicate effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders; strong documentation skills.
