About the Role

Workday is seeking a Performance and Availability Support Engineer to help ensure the reliability, scalability, and responsiveness of our platform architecture. In this role, you will analyze logs and performance metrics, tune configurations and queries, and debug service pipelines to prevent and resolve production issues.

We proactively detect and eliminate performance bottlenecks, minimize downtime, and optimize system efficiency using advanced monitoring, disciplined engineering practices, and close collaboration with partner teams.

• Identify and implement improvements in support processes, monitoring, and incident response workflows

• Partner with engineering to drive fixes, design improvements, and long-term reliability initiatives

• Maintain accurate system documentation and operational procedures

• Facilitate cross-team collaboration during incidents and communicate updates and outcomes to customers and leadership

About You Basic Qualifications

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.
