Job Summary
We are seeking an experienced Workday Integration Engineer to design, build, and optimize secure, high-volume data pipelines. The ideal candidate will architect complex programmatic transformations, connecting Workday cleanly with third-party networks, benefits providers, and external payroll engines using Workday Studio, EIBs, and Core Connectors.
Key Responsibilities
Design, develop, and deploy complex integrations using Workday Studio, custom transformations, and multi-step assembly components.
Build out-of-the-box data pipelines using Enterprise Interface Builders (EIBs), Core Connectors, Cloud Connect for Benefits (CCB), and Cloud Connect for Third-Party Payroll (CCPP).
Write custom data transformation mappings utilizing XSLT, XPath, MVEL, and Java within integration assemblies to translate disparate payload structures.
Expose and consume programmatic endpoints, constructing custom data serialization loops using Workday Web Services (WWS), REST APIs, SOAP, and custom RaaS (Report-as-a-Service) templates.
Apply strict data security standardizations, configuring custom PGP encryption blocks, digital certificate authentications, and secure SFTP file delivery routing.
Diagnose and optimize integration performance bottlenecks, addressing processing time-outs, high-volume document parsing blocks, and Web Service call throttling limits.
Lead update regression validations for semi-annual platform releases, testing complex integration code paths across developer sandboxes to prevent deployment breakage.
Requirements
4 to 8 years of core middleware or enterprise integration engineering experience, with 4+ dedicated years actively writing custom technical data transformations inside the Workday ecosystem.
Strong technical mastery of Workday Studio development tools, advanced XSLT processing engines, XML/JSON parsing, and calculated fields.
Deep structural understanding of synchronous vs. asynchronous web service calls, API governance limits, and object relationship mapping conventions.
Prior experience managing large-scale system migration data loading tracks using advanced loading utilities or custom API loading loops.
Familiarity with third-party external cloud integration brokers like MuleSoft, Boomi, or AWS event-driven frameworks interacting directly with Workday endpoints.
