Product Manager - Core Software

Your work days are brighter here.

At Workday, it all began with a conversation over breakfast. When our founders met at a sunny California diner, they came up with an idea to revolutionize the enterprise software market. And when we began to rise, one thing that really set us apart was our culture. A culture which was driven by our value of putting our people first. 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

Do what you love. Love what you do.

At Workday, we help the world’s largest organizations adapt to what’s next by bringing finance, HR, and planning into a single enterprise cloud. We work hard, and we’re serious about what we do. But we like to have fun, too. We put people first, celebrate diversity, drive innovation, and do good in the communities where we live and work.

It's fun to work in a company where people truly believe in what they're doing. At Workday, we're committed to bringing passion and customer focus to the business of enterprise applications. Our Technology Product Management team powers it all. If you like wild growth, big challenges, and working with happy, enthusiastic over-achievers, Workday is the place for you.

We are a team of bright, kind, and solution-oriented people focused on creating value for our customers. We can solve problems individually but understand that the best solutions are found when the team brainstorms ideas together. We are excited about balancing the need to deploy new solutions quickly and designing solutions that are secured, reliable, maintainable and scalable for the long run.

As Product Manager for our Developer Platforms organization, you will drive new levels of developer productivity and satisfaction for our internal application teams at Workday by helping to reimagine how we build the applications used by millions of end users around the world.

Above all, we need a Product Manager who knows how to deliver continual value to a business, making thoughtful tradeoffs and taking calculated risks. Experience with building language platforms and tooling is a big plus!

If you collaborate easily with cross-functional partners and love to dive into the nitty-gritty details of language tooling and frameworks, we want to hear from you!
