About the Team We are hiring engineers on two different teams.

Within Admin Central, Workday implementations move from being driven by human effort to being powered by intelligence designed into the platform.

The Business Process Optimize team powers the underlying platform infrastructure. You’ll build mission-critical distributed systems, high-availability usage pipelines, new agentic functionality, and event-driven data flows across global product regions to ensure enterprise billing integrity at scale. If you're excited to build from scratch, move fast, and transform how thousands of admins work every day, come join us! About the Role

About the Role As a Principal Software Engineer you will lead the architecture and implementation of Workday’s next-generation AI platforms and autonomous agent frameworks. You’ll sit at the intersection of machine learning, event-driven data systems, and enterprise platform engineering—transforming cutting-edge AI research into production-ready, highly reliable systems handling tens of millions of daily requests for hundreds of enterprise tenants (including over 100+ Tier-0 enterprise tenants). In this hands-on, high-impact role, you will design the ML infrastructure, multi-agent orchestration layers, and high-availability usage pipelines that power enterprise-grade decision-making, usage tracking, automatic tenant maintenance, and billing integrity across international regions.
