The Principal Technical Consultant is a senior technical consulting role responsible for architecting, delivering, and governing complex technical solutions across the Dayforce ecosystem. The role operates across multiple technical disciplines, including enterprise integrations, APIs, SFTP and file-based interfaces, iPaaS and middleware solutions, imports and exports, data loading and conversion, General Ledger interfaces, and other complex Dayforce technical services.

The Principal Technical Consultant works with customer technology teams, upstream and downstream application owners, implementation teams, partners, and internal Dayforce stakeholders to understand enterprise architecture and business requirements and translate them into secure, scalable, supportable technical solutions based on Dayforce technical architecture.

This role takes an end-to-end view of how data enters Dayforce, moves between Dayforce modules and external systems, is transformed and validated, and ultimately reaches downstream platforms. Depending on the customer architecture, the consultant may work across APIs, SFTP, flat-file interfaces, Integration Studio, Boomi or other iPaaS technologies, data loading tools, exports,



General Ledger solutions, and related integration technologies.

As a Principal Consultant, the role also provides technical leadership across complex implementations, establishes solution and integration standards, leads technical design discussions, resolves critical technical issues, mentors other consultants, and acts as a trusted technical advisor to customers and project teams.
