You will collaborate closely with product teams & CoEs owning areas such as Talent Acquisition, Talent, Total Rewards, People Operations Excellence, Data, and other People Technology capabilities.

Partner with Workday functional, technical, and business teams to design secure, scalable solutions that meet business needs while following best practices and leveraging Workday's out-of-the-box capabilities. Provide security governance and best-practice guidance for Workday integrations, APIs, and service accounts, partnering with the Integrations team on implementation and providing hands-on execution and remediation where required.

Build and maintain security reports and dashboards and use Google Apps Script and other automation approaches to simplify reporting, improve visibility into access and risks, and make security insights easier to understand and act on. Drive continuous improvement, innovation, and cross-functional alignment across People Systems, HR, Information Security, Audit, Compliance, and functional teams, translating complex security concepts into practical, scalable solutions for technical and non-technical stakeholders.
