We are seeking Workday Engineers who are passionate about developing highly-resilient, fundamentally-sound objects to support the Human Resource technology driving Capital One. As part of a team that’s leading the next wave of disruption on a whole new scale, you will play an integral part in advancing Capital One’s Human Resource Technology, Finance Technology ecosystem and culture of technical excellence. You will champion automation of functional and technical processes and bring your expertise to drive innovative solutions.

This Senior Manager will be supporting our Workday Platform & Data Governance Team, responsible for the shared architecture across Workday Human Capital Management (HCM) and Workday Financials (FIN). This leadership role touches a broad, horizontal understanding of the Workday platform and broader enterprise systems such as workforce management, Identity and access management, productivity tooling. You will act as the functional bridge between the HR and Finance organizations, ensuring that system configurations are cohesive and that the Foundation Data Model (FDM) remains aligned across all modules.

• Act as the central escalation point for configuration conflicts between the federated HR and Finance teams, making decisions based on overall platform stability and enterprise standards.

• Maintain a comprehensive understanding of the enterprise data model. You must understand not only how data is structured inside Workday, but how functional configuration impacts downstream data warehouses, IAM systems, and other enterprise systems.

• Design and implement functional safeguards to prevent bad data from entering the system at the source.

• Develop and oversee routine operational reporting and audit processes to identify data anomalies between HR and Financial records

• Partner directly with the Workday Technical Leader to ensure that the functional configuration supports scalable, clean data extracts. You will define the functional business rules that govern what data is sent to external systems
