About the Team

The Deployment Technology team is transforming how Workday is deployed and managed. Our mission is to reduce deployment time, cost and complexity while helping customers realize value faster.

We build products that help Workday implementation teams and partners get customers live faster by making it easier to discover proven setup approaches, reuse configuration, automate repetitive work and use AI-powered tools to guide and complete complex implementation tasks.

We also help customers become more self-sufficient after deployment, making it easier to manage and maintain Workday, adopt new products and features, and stay on top of ongoing change through intuitive, AI-enabled experiences.

Working closely with customers, partners and product teams across Workday, we're shaping the next generation of deployment technology across the full customer lifecycle.

About the Role

As an AI Engineer in Deployment Technology — a newly created profile on the team, based in Dublin — you will help design and build the AI-powered systems and tooling that guide and automate complex Workday implementation tasks. You'll work closely with senior engineers, Product Management, and platform teams to bring AI capabilities from prototype to production, helping implementation teams and partners deploy Workday faster and helping customers stay self-sufficient long after go-live.

What You'll Do

• Build and deploy AI-powered features and tools that automate repetitive implementation work and guide complex configuration tasks
• Help integrate AI/ML models (including LLM-based capabilities) into Deployment Technology products, from prototype through production
• Contribute to the infrastructure, pipelines, and monitoring needed to run AI systems reliably at scale
• Collaborate with Product Management, implementation teams, partners, and enablement to understand real deployment challenges and help translate them into AI-driven solutions
• Support performance, reliability, and cost-efficiency improvements for deployed AI capabilities
• Grow your expertise in AI engineering practices alongside a team establishing this discipline from the ground up

About You

Basic Qualifications:

• 3-5 years of experience in software engineering
• Strong proficiency in Python
• Experience with LangGraph, LangChain, and LangSmith (or willingness to quickly ramp up on these frameworks)
• Proficiency in at least one other statically-typed language such as Java, Scala, Rust, or C++
• Hands-on experience building applications with Large Language Models

Other Qualifications:

• Exposure to agentic design patterns where an LLM uses tools to interact with its environment
• Experience developing and deploying applications on a major cloud platform (AWS, GCP, or Azure)
• Familiarity with event-driven systems and asynchronous task handling
• Experience working within fast-paced, agile environments and cross-functional teams
• Strong communication skills, with the ability to collaborate with both technical and non-technical partners
• Comfortable working with ambiguity and translating complex problems into clear, thoughtful solutions
• Committed to fostering an inclusive, team-oriented environment and contributing to a culture of continuous improvement

You bring a solid engineering foundation and a genuine curiosity about applied AI, and you're excited to grow your expertise while helping shape a brand-new engineering discipline on a team defining the future of enterprise deployment.

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.
