About The Team
Agent Factory is where Workday’s next chapter gets built. We’re forming small, senior, cross-functional AI teams that bring together product leaders, AI engineers, and full-stack builders to create intelligent agents used by millions of people every day. This is production-grade AI—deeply embedded into Workday’s platform—not research experiments or maintenance work. Teams own problems end to end, collaborate tightly across disciplines, and use the right tools to solve real customer challenges at global scale. You’ll work at the intersection of AI, platform architecture, and human workflows, with the autonomy to shape how agents reason, act,



and scale responsibly. High trust, high expectations, and real impact. Engineering, but brighter.

About The Role

As a Senior AI Engineer in Agent Factory, you will drive the end-to-end system design, implementation, and product integration for a core domain of Workday’s next generation of intelligent agents. While our ML Engineers focus on building, training, and optimizing foundational algorithms, your mission is intelligence orchestration and product delivery—connecting the brain to the product.
Sitting at the intersection of AI capabilities, enterprise platforms, and human workflows, you will develop and integrate foundational models safely and reliably into functional, production-grade software. You will be hands‑on in the design, experimentation, and orchestration of complex agentic workflows, translating cutting‑edge AI capabilities into scalable business value. Because these agents interact with sensitive financial data at a global scale, you will be a key contributor to Responsible and Governed AI—implementing strict guardrails for data privacy, predictability, and explainability within your pod. This role requires a balance of domain‑level system architecture and rigorous execution, solving critical product constraints like latency, cost, and reliability.
