And ever since, the happiness, development, and contribution of every Workmate is central to who we are. Our Workmates believe a healthy employee-centric, collaborative culture is the essential mix of ingredients for success in business. That’s why we look after our people, communities and the planet while still being profitable. Feel encouraged to shine, however that manifests: you don’t need to hide who you are. You can feel the energy and the passion, it's what makes us unique. Inspired to make a brighter work day for all and transform with us to the next stage of our growth journey? Bring your brightest version of you and have a brighter work day here.

About the Team

Would you enjoy the autonomy and agility of an innovative small team
while benefiting from the stability of a large corporation? Are you
passionate about building scalable user experiences in frequent
collaboration and iteration with designers and other engineers?
Our organization is proving out new ways of building by creating a next
generation user experience on top of new backend features. We are
staffing full stack teams and empowering them to tackle product
features end to end. Our goal is to ship an entirely new product to
Workday customers, and then the sky's the limit!

About the Role

Our team values innovation, collaboration, and ownership. You will
design and implement features and components in a team oriented
environment. You will collaborate with product management to break
down high-level product vision into manageable pieces for
development. Development work will primarily be in Java and React, with some Typescript and making GraphQL queries and utilizing Workday's existing web
infrastructure. You will also actively participate in knowledge sharing
via mentoring, code reviews, building design documents, and/or giving
technical talks.

We are a geographically distributed organization with a focus on a presence in Pleasanton, CA, Vancouver, BC, Boulder, CO and Dublin, Ireland; we coordinate teams around these geographies but ultimately collaborate with engineers and architects across the world.

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.

Pursuant to applicable Fair Chance law, Workday will consider for employment qualified applicants with arrest and conviction records.

Workday is an Equal Opportunity Employer including individuals with disabilities and protected veterans.
