Full Job Description
We are seeking a senior, hands-on integration engineer with deep Workday expertise and strong system-agnostic integration and software engineering fundamentals. This role is responsible for designing, building, and troubleshooting API-driven integrations between Workday and enterprise platforms. Workday serves as the system of record, while Microsoft Power Automate and other tools act as orchestration and execution layers. The ideal candidate combines: deep knowledge of Workday APIs, data structures, and business process behavior, and a strong understanding of integration architecture and engineering principles that apply across any system or platform. Responsibilities: 1. Design and implement Workday integrations using: - Workday REST APIs - Workday SOAP APIs (Web Services) - Workday data model and business process logic 2. Construct and troubleshoot: - XML payloads and API requests - API responses and error handling - Authentication, security, and integration context 3. Build integrations that follow sound engineering principles: - Explicit validation prior to write-back - Deterministic execution and predictable outcomes - Robust error handling and retry strategies - Full observability including logging and audit trails 4. Diagnose integration issues by analyzing: - Raw API request and response data - Workday Business Process state and configuration - Data integrity and sequencing issues across systems 5. Partner with engineering teams to support orchestration patterns using tools such as: - Power Automate - API layers - Workflow and automation platforms 6. Ensure integrations respect system boundaries: - Workday enforces business rules and approval flows - External systems orchestrate, not override system-of-record logic Required Qualifications: - Bachelor’s degree OR a significant amount of directly related work experience beyond the minimum required for the position - 4+ years hands-on Workday integration experience - Strong expertise in: - Workday SOAP APIs (Web Services) - Workday REST APIs - Workday data model and object relationships - Workday Business Process-controlled API behavior - Proven ability to: - Construct API requests manually when needed - Troubleshoot failures at the request/response level - Debug integrations without relying on Studio abstraction layers - Strong understanding of: - XML structure, namespaces, and schema validation - Integration security (ISU, ISSG) - Authentication and API connectivity patterns - Must demonstrate strong fundamentals in integration and software engineering, including: - Designing integrations that are: - Deterministic and predictable - Resilient to failure - Observable and auditable - Understanding of core integration patterns: - API-driven architecture - Request/response vs event-driven models - Orchestration vs system-of-record responsibility - Ability to: - Define validation layers before system updates - Design safe retry strategies without duplicating or corrupting data - Isolate failures across multi-system workflows At RSM, we offer a competitive benefits and compensation package for all our people. We offer flexibility in your schedule, empowering you to balance life’s demands, while also maintaining your ability to serve clients. Learn more about our total rewards at https://rsmus.com/careers/working-at-rsm/benefits.
