Full Job Description

About the Team


As Workday accelerates its strategic evolution toward a consumption-based pricing model, the Platform Consumption Console (PCC) team is building the critical infrastructure to make it happen. We are the central nervous system for usage data across the enterprise. By engineering seamless data ingestion pipelines, pinpoint-accurate billing calculations, and transparent customer-facing controls, PCC empowers Workday to confidently launch flexible, usage-based products—like Workday Agents—that will drive the next generation of our global business growth.

About the Role


As a Full Stack Engineer in the PCC team, you’ll help build the user-facing and platform experiences that increase trust AI agents .Working within a small, cross-functional pod, you’ll design and ship full stack solutions—from intuitive front-end experiences to resilient backend services that integrate AI-driven capabilities deeply into HR and Finance workflows.

Ground-Floor Enterprise Impact: You are joining at a pivotal inflection point. PCC is rapidly transitioning from a localized billing tool into a core piece of Workday’s enterprise infrastructure. The work you do here will directly shape how Workday monetizes its products for years to come.

You will tackle complex, high-stakes engineering and product challenges—from orchestrating the ingestion of massive daily usage metrics and ensuring zero-defect financial ledgers, to building intuitive, high-visibility dashboards for our enterprise customers.

A "Startup Within a Giant" Culture: We are transitioning to a highly focused, domain-driven platform model. For builders who want to define strategy, establish new technical standards, and see the immediate impact of their work, this is the place to be.
