So, if you want to inspire a brighter work day for everyone, including yourself, you’ve found a match in Workday, and we hope to be a match for you too.

The Deployment Technology team is transforming how Workday is deployed and managed. Our mission is to reduce deployment time, cost and complexity while accelerating customer time to value.

We build capabilities that enable implementers, consultants and our partner ecosystem to accelerate customer deployments using best-in-class generative AI experiences, intelligent automation, reusable configuration, Skills, MCP and platform services. We also bring these capabilities into Workday so customers can manage and maintain their environments more independently, adopt new features and SKUs, and manage ongoing change through intuitive, AI-enabled experiences.

Working closely with customers, partners and product teams across Workday, we are defining the next generation of deployment technology and helping make implementation and ongoing change simpler, faster and more scalable.

• 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.
