About the Role As a Forward Deployed Engineer, you'll work directly with some of Workday's most important early customers to deploy, configure, and improve our AI products and agents.

You'll work alongside our product and engineering teams as an extension of our internal product managers, playing a central role in agent Early Access (EA) programs and running the customer deployments inside them.

Your mission is to make the product better by putting it to work in a live customer environment. A successful deployment is both a win for the customer and proof that the product is improving, so making early customers successful matters just as much as hardening the agent itself.

You'll often be the first person at Workday to run a deployment of a given agent, so good judgment, clear communication, ownership, and organization will matter as much as technical curiosity.

Every deployment will surface something the product wasn't built for yet, so creative problem-solving and a "yes, and" mindset are core to this role: instead of telling a customer that something isn't possible, you'll find a way to solve their use case with what exists today, bring them along on what's coming next, and turn the gap into clear feedback for product and engineering.

In this role, you will: Support customer discovery to understand goals and functional requirements for AI agent deployments Serve as a day-to-day technical contact for design partners and Early Access (EA) customers, maintaining transparent communication and setting expectations Execute EA deployments end-to-end: implement, configure,



and troubleshoot solutions based on ongoing customer feedback Analyze customer tenant data, configurations, and workflows to evaluate agent performance and behavior Triage issues effectively, distinguishing between bugs, configuration errors, and product gaps, and escalate to appropriate engineering teams Maintain clear status updates, tracking deployment risks, open technical issues, and next steps for internal and external stakeholders Translate customer feedback and field findings into detailed problem statements and actionable bug reports for core engineering Assist in evaluating pre-GA stage gates and graduation metrics to ensure product readiness Document deployment playbooks, repeatable configuration patterns, and troubleshooting guides to support scaling efforts Collaborate closely with program managers and Workday Services leads throughout customer implementations Support early General Availability (GA) releases until product graduation criteria are achieved About You Basic Qualifications 5+ years of experience in technical consulting, solutions engineering, implementation, technical product management,
