Key Responsibilities
Application Development & Architecture
Custom App Design: Design and build end-to-end custom applications using Workday App Builder. Define app components including Pages, Business Objects, and Security domains.
Logic & Orchestration: Develop complex Orchestrations (server-side logic) to handle business rules, ensuring data integrity and proper workflow execution (e.g., "If user clicks X, call external API Y, then update Workday Record Z").
API Integration: Create robust integrations within Extend apps that consume REST/SOAP APIs from third-party vendors (e.g., integrating a badge scanning system, vaccination database, or external rewards platform directly into Workday).
Data Modeling: Architect custom Business Objects inside Workday to store unique data fields that do not exist in the standard Workday data model.
UX/UI Design: Design intuitive user interfaces using Workday’s Canvas Design System to ensure custom apps look and feel exactly like native Workday functionality.
L2 Support & Operational Management
App Maintenance & Monitoring: Monitor the health of deployed Extend apps using the Developer Site console. Troubleshoot runtime errors in Orchestrations or API failures (e.g., resolving "400 Bad Request" errors from external endpoints).
Version Management: Perform impact analysis and code updates when Workday deprecates underlying APIs. Ensure custom apps are updated to the latest API versions (e.g., v39 to v40) to prevent breakage during bi-annual releases.
Security Governance: Manage Security Groups and Domains specific to Extend Apps. Investigate "Access Denied" tickets where users cannot see specific custom pages or data elements.
Performance Tuning: Optimize slow-loading apps by refining WQL (Workday Query Language) queries and reducing excessive API calls.
CI/CD & Promotion: Manage the lifecycle of moving apps from Sandbox to Production, ensuring proper version control and testing evidence is documented.
Qualifications
Mandatory Education & Certifications
Workday Certification: Active Workday Extend certification is strictly required.
Additional Certifications: Workday Integrations Core or Workday Studio certifications are highly preferred.
Education: Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related technical field.
Required Experience
Workday Experience: 3+ years of technical Workday experience (Integrations or Extend).
Programming Proficiency: Proven experience with standard web development concepts: JSON, REST APIs, JavaScript, or Python. (Note: This role requires actual coding logic, not just configuration).
Data Skills: Proficiency in WQL (Workday Query Language) and relational database concepts.
Security Standards: Understanding of OAuth 2.0, ISUs (Integration System Users), and ISSGs (Integration System Security Groups).
Preferred Skills
Experience with serverless computing (e.g., AWS Lambda, Azure Functions) used in conjunction with Workday Extend.
Knowledge of Workday Prism Analytics (using Prism datasets as a high-volume backend for Extend apps).
This Job Description is tailored for a UiPath RPA Developer.
This role requires a blend of technical coding skills (.NET/C#), process logic (flowcharting/diagramming), and operational management (Orchestrator). I have structured this to include both the "Build" (Development) and "Run" (Support) aspects.
